#intheYuNickofTime Wedding Kwento (4 of 9): The Despedida de Soltera - final farewell to the single life!♀️ Back in our meeting in January, I knew there are a lot of yummy restos in Siargao but @chefrain_barbers highly suggested we have our dinner in @kermitsiargao . . .

These customised @shopstylecat bags are topped with our monogram (by @nikkisunga ) laser-etched on a wooden chip and a silk tassel in our color scheme (expat blue and millennial pink kuno) for ladies and Style Cat jute sacks for

We decided to fly to Siargao a few days earlier to make sure everything was in order. @nickhigson ’s fam flew from the UK so I knew they HAD TO see the sights before things got busy so I booked this 1-day tour with Mabuhay Restop with this itinerary: . 8-10am: Sugba Lagoon 10-11:30am: Kawhagan Island w/ Lunch (my fave!!!!) 1-3pm: Magpupungko Rock Formations . I have
Words cannot even describe how amazing this weekend was. I have prayed long and hard for this moment and finally, I can now say that I married my best friend, partner in crime and the man responsible for pushing me to be my best version.
