The 50th Wedding Ceremony

Today it is very rare to see two people giving their hearts to each other, unconditionally. I think that's what true love really is. It's not this fairytale life that never knows pain, but it's two souls facing it together and diminishing it with unconditional love.

I just want to get the message across to my grandparents as to how much they mean to us all and that their could never be anyone anywhere more precious to us than them. They are just the kind of parents/grandparents that my friends would tell me they wished they had, even if they were strict with us as we grew up. No matter what their kids got into, they never turned their back on them. Even after all their kids got married and moved out, my grandparents still make sure they're all fine. Despite the roller coaster ride on their marriage, the story of my grandparent's union is a proof that sacrifice, commitment, and love will indeed go a long long way.

Here's a slideshow for yah! You can also visit my Facebook photo album to view some of the photos. Thanks!

50th Wedding Rehearsal

In today's society, a ten-year marriage seems like an accomplishment for most people. Considering the high divorce rates, particularly in the United States. Actually reaching your 50th wedding anniversary seems to be an even greater accomplishment than winning a mega sweepstakes.

Here are some photos during the 50th wedding rehearsal. It is good to know that everybody in the family took a very special care in planning the party even if it was a simple one. The 3 great-grandchildren are one of the highlights of the ceremony. A bible bearer, a ring bearer and a flower girl.

The original plan of my grandparents was to renew their vows in the church, but there's a slight problem....the cost of the priest to officiate the ceremony is too expensive...waaaa...I thought it's FREE...lol! So I volunteered Greg instead.

I might need to check the sync program tonight. This program allows you to replace old files with new ones. Btw, here's my Ma and Pa...they just finished blowing up the balloons....:)
