Once upon a time, at the old office, I had this graphic designer working for us, brightening up the studio with his antics, becoming the “pet” of sorts for the all girl editors. (That’s not as fun as one might think, menstrual period jokes get old really fast).
He soon moved on taking a job at marketing in Shangri-la Boracay (part of the original team), and then transferring to Singapore after.
Boracay was key because that’s where he met Jen. Love blossoms in the most unexpected places don’t you think?
They got married in the very island they met in last weekend. It was an event to remember.
Honestly, and I mean really truth be told, I thought it was going to be like all the other Boracay weddings I’ve shot – meaning, work your ass off and put your heart into the couple and their wedding film, but then retire early for the night to catch an early flight the next day.
Wasn’t the case though, by some strange mix of vodka, the beach vibe, tequila, brownies and intense EDM, a bunch of my girls from work, myself and a host of new found friends partied the night away like it was the next sequel of the Hangover.
And what happens in Boracay, stays in a hot stinking mess of dried puke on the crusty sand.
