Attending a bridal expo

Sometimes life can be so cruel. Of all the events that I can cover for Daigdig Pinoy, it has to be a wedding event pa! I don't have anything against marriages and weddings, don't get me wrong, I really want to settle down, but i cannot force fate to be on my side all the time.

At first, I was really hesistant to be part of that event. I will be looking at events places, caterers, hotels, photographers, wedding singers, wedding cakes and most of all, wedding gowns that I could never wear! Why? have you ever looked at the manequins they used? Sure, it will look good at the manequin and petite sizes, but imagine it blowing up to fit me! haha!

I was able to meet fabulous people (but still there are some na parang pasan nila ang daigdig at ayaw nilang ngumiti o kausapin ka man lang ng maayos), and be able to meet old friends as well.

The reason i do not want to go to that event in the first place is because, i have been planning for my wedding for years now and still it didnt materialize. Of course, i need a decent guy to go with it. It's really frustrating and sometimes dissapointing.

I saw an old couple looking at brochures in the expo, then i realized, that weddings are not merely events, these are special moments in your life, the moment and time you want the whole world to know - that you loved.

Marriage is something worth waiting for, something to look forward to, and something to prepare for. No matter what other people say, I will take my time, for it is my happiness that is at stake, and that's what matters most.
