Tisha and Teody: Abaca Resort, Mactan

EDIT:  Here’s more about Tisha nad Teody’s wedding from MangoRed’s site.

I know things will always be better. - These words spoken by the bride never rang so true.

Tisha and Teody were supposed to wed this December in the Grand Convention Center in Cebu, circumstances led them to reschedule for January 2009.

Last week Wednesday I got a call from Tisha.

“Brace yourself Jason. Are you ready for this?” (her usual bubbly self)
“I’m holding on to my seat, spell it out.” (anxious and giddy)
“Are you free this Monday, September 8 for my wedding?”
Momentary pause. Just a moment though. “Send me the tickets! We’re flying to Cebu”.

And so we pushed the shooting sked to five days. Nothing that Red Bull can’t handle really.

You see, I cannot miss this wedding for the world. Not after the almost year long planning conversations, not after the back-stories of the wedding, not after the tribulations the couple had to go through to make it happen. This time, September 8, nothing will stop this, for better or worse - It will happen!

It’s scary sometimes when you invest a part of yourself in the stories of couples. You dig so deep from within to put soul in the project. It’s taxing, exhausting even, but the rewards are so worth it.

The 50 person wedding was held in the gorgeous gorgeous Abaca Resort in Mactan, Cebu. Planning a wedding in eight days or so is no mean feat. But thanks to the help of the Association of Sugbu’s Wedding Planners and Coordinators, Inc. (ASWPC), of which Tisha is the secretary, everything was executed hitch-free.

Once again we, along with Mangored, were treated extra special by the beautiful planners (STANZ!, Boni, Ritchie, Connie, Ralyn, Ritchie, Claire and Bong- don’t kill me if I forgot somebody, the Mojito got to me). Faces turned red and mangoes turned green as we partied the night away. Thanks guys! Til’ the next round.
