..wedding details - the 3rd w (pt.1)..

Now that we have the following details:
=========================
WHAT: Rocky and Ira's Wedding
WHEN: September 17
=========================
..let's move on to the "third W" - WHERE.

There are two things to be considered - the church and reception venue.

"One-Two Punch"
I first thought of a church with a courtyard, in that way ceremony and reception will happen in one place. Nuestra Seniora De Gracia in Guadalupe first comes to mind. Rocky was not completely sold on the idea - he was not pleased with where it is located (having to pass by very narrow street with little kids running around). Besides, September is known to be a rainy month (Ondoy happened on a September). Not a good sign. With that, NSDG was scratched off the list.

"All-in-one"
When I found C3 Events Place in Greenhills on the internet, I thought it was pricey (given the fact that it is operated by a culinary school). But seeing the rates and services it offers, I was convinced. Everything is provided- from the food to the guestbook. The only thing to think about is the church.
But the sad news is, it has already been booked on our date. Goodbye to a fuzz-free wedding reception.

"Picture Perfect"
Enderun is another events venue operated by a culinary school, in fact it is located inside a school campus. It has a function room, minibar and courtyard. It offers initimate and very elegant setting. Perfect for a dream wedding. When we asked for its availability on our date, the AE confirmed and pencil booked it under our names. That very same week, we toured around the campus and booked the place for our reception ON-THE-SPOT! It was, indeed, love at first sight!
