Heart Lanterns




A couple of weeks ago we attended what i can say is the best wedding that we have been to so far. Non-traditional, non-cheesy, very personalized. The love of the bride and groom for each other was soooo much that it overflowed to the hearts of all the guests. We, it seemed, were the recipients of the wedding gifts --- way before the date we were already booked in hotels reserved exclusively for us, the bills footed by the couple. When we entered our rooms, there were capiz candle holders on our beds with a lovely note -- another gift from them. These are just some of the personal touches the couple have made to make sure their family and friends felt special.

What i loved, too, were our heart-felt wishes inside those huge heart-shaped lanterns that we set free to the stars by the beach. So romantic! 

That love-filled touch was somewhat like the dainty crimson flowers hanging with their yellow skirts and redder tails. Look closer. See how nature has strewn them out like buntings to make us feel special. It is the Great Creator's expression of love to us.
