Fidelity
Normally, I am not able to fully listen to the homily of the priest during a wedding. We’d be so busy preparing for the nuptial rites and the offertory that we’re not able to focus on the homily.
I was blog hopping when I read a reader’s comment in Jason Magbanua’s site that a particular priest’s homily moved her to tears and gave her goosebumps. This was for Renren and Margaux’s wedding. I remember super liking Father Ed Africa, the priest who officiated their wedding. He was so easy to coordinate with over the phone and was so pleasant in person. So I watched the video again. And what he said rang so true:
Let me remind you today. You’re not gonna promise to each other that you will not disappoint one another. You will. At some point you will. What is important is you don’t go away, you don’t escape, you don’t leave one another because you were disappointed. That is the meaning of fidelity.
Super totoo.

*On a different aspect of the video altogether, I love the lighting during Renren and Margaux’s first dance. Ganda no? Galing!*

ingat! keep in touch! mwah!
Kaje! That’s super funny! Hahaha! I love Fr. Ed’s message. Super totoo no?
Hi, clarice. see, i’m just as resourceful as margaux. i found your blog ‘coz i wanted so much to see if there’s something about ren’s and margaux’s wedding. true enough – here i am in your blog.thanks for the very wonderful way you handled the event esp.on the day itself. my most meticulous relatives are all in awe as to how everything went so smoothly – from the preparation in the hotel, to the church ,to the reception and until the end. thanks too for boasting about her gown. in fairness, veluz did an equally wonderful job on her gown kaya lang i went to her blog but margaux, in her wedding gown, is not there. i have been recommending all the people behind the success of the wedding-starting with you, veluz, dino, jason and teddy manuel(did i get all the names right?) to everyone who congratulated us for the very beautiful wedding.. without all of you, the wedding wouldn’t have been as beautiful and successful as it was. more power!!!
Hi Mrs. Dizon!
Hahaha! Like mother, like daughter! 
Thanks so much for your kind words. Thank you for everything. It’s weird to thank you for helping us on your daughter’s wedding because it’s your family’s event but you know po what I mean.
Yes po, you got the names right.
Please ask Margaux to send me photos of her in her wedding gown. I can send that to Veluz and hopefully she’ll be able to post it. I love her gown and everything was because of your super engrandeng train! I don’t think I’ll be able to see another gown like that. Sana ma-preserve pa for your apos naman.
Thanks again!
