After two months of preparation, finally the day we all waited to come is happening now.

The soft sound of instrumental was played all over the church and everything is well-designed as we expected to be.

Every corner of the church also seem to filled with so much love which I don't know where’s it coming from, it maybe from me and RK's love? Or is it because of our loved one’s presence?

All I know is that, I didn't actually slept well because I was excited yet nervous at the same time. It took us hours and days to prepare and this is such a huge event that happen in my life. In every woman's life, I suppose.

Ate Diane and Bianca are my bride's maid while Riza and Paul are the one's who bring us our rings later.

Ni re-retouch pa nang make-up artist and make-up ko dahil mamaya-maya ay magsisimula na.

Nang makatapos ay iniwan naman na ako ng mag-isa rito sa bride's room and I couldn't help but admire myself at the moment upon seeing myself at the mirror.

I look so stunningly beautiful and my wedding dress are just perfect for my body. It made me look more beautiful.

Up until now, I still can't believe na nangyayari na talaga 'to. It all look just like a dream na parang ayaw ko na rin magising kung sakali man.

From highschool lovers to husband and wife, I can't help but surpress a genuine sweet smile while staring at myself in front of the mirror right now.

We've made it. We really did.

My thoughts were cut short when I heard someone came in to let me know the wedding ceremony will start now.

It made me nervous yet excited that even when I'm standing and waiting for the church's door to open is it's starting to make my knees weak, I can even feel my heart beating loudly from the inside and the trembling hands while holding the white wedding flowers bouquet within my hands.

Doon lang ako kumalma ng hawakan ni mama ang braso ko, she look up to me and quickly fix my veil before smiling at me and nodded.

Then, the door opened and the soft love song instrumental music played. At the same time I could feel everyone's eyes were locked at me, smiling while others are pretty stunned with how I look today.

Like them, I was happy too. Too happy.

I began to walk slowly, eyes were fix at the only man who captured my heart ever since I could remember life.

All the hardships we faced, being together or not. I know deep inside I still believe with our love, our faith with each other and how we keep on choosing each other no matter how tough the road is.

We maybe drifted for years but our love is endless and unwavering. We both stayed and forgave each other amidst the weight of our past mistakes.

In the end, siya pa rin ang alam kung uuwian ko. Katulad niya, pipiliin at pipiliin ko rin siya kahit paghiwalayin kami ng mundo.

I'll spend the rest of my days being alive in this world as long as I'm with him I knew nothing could go wrong. He made me see the things I never thought I'd possess, he made me feel loved without begging and doubts. He made me who I am today, he is my rock and my endless love of life.

As I'm slowly approaching the altar where my man's standing and waiting for me, I couldn't help but cry . . . overflowing with emotion, knowing that I'm about to spend the rest of my life with my best friend and soulmate.

Like me, I knew he's crying too. We're both happy and excited for this is the beginning of our life where we have to live as husband and wife.

As soon as he took my hand, opened my veil, said our vows, kiss each other in front of our loved one's and us being announced husband and wife.

Right there, I knew he was my end and beginning. In his eyes, I saw a love so pure, so true, that it shook me to my core. It was as if time stood still, and all that existed was the two of us, suspended in this perfect moment.

As I gazed into his eyes, I felt the weight of our journey lifting, like the final piece of a puzzle falling into place. I knew that every laugh, every tear, every moment of joy and heartache, had led us to this moment. And in this moment, I knew that I was home.

With him, I felt the kind of love that transcends words, the kind that speaks directly to the soul. It was the kind of love that made me feel seen, heard, and understood in a way I never thought possible. And as I stood there, basking in the warmth of his love, I knew that I would never let it go.

In the end, it was not just a wedding vow, but a promise to ourselves, to our love, and to the life we were about to build together. And as we sealed our love with a kiss, I knew that our beginning was only just starting, and that our love would be the guiding force that would carry us through all of life's joys and challenges.
