Personalised and Regal: Exciting Things To Expect on a Luxury Cruise
All aboard the Genting Dream’s Inaugural Cruise From Singapore To Bintan
My introduction to cruise ships started when I was younger, getting on board with my mom – but the image of a “ship” that I had was a standard ship, just a mode of transportation to get from A to B and in other words, boring. I was beyond excited when I heard about Dream Cruises’ 3D 2N weekend cruise! This is perfect for me because I usually just have the weekends to spare and we all crave for that quick getaway.

WHERE TO STAY IN BOHOL: My Amorita Resort Experience
My Amorita Resort Review
Whenever people ask me where the best beaches are, without batting an eyelash I always say “Philippines”. It’s not even just about the beaches, it’s about the warm service and the resort staff that’s always all smiles. Recently (thanks to the help of AirAsia’s affordable Manila-Tagbilaran flights), I hopped on a plane to spend 3 days and 2 nights in the very luxe Amorita Resort.

#intheYuNickofTime Wedding Kwento (8 of 9): To Celebrate Love With Family We Choose ❤️ . Honestly, one of the hardest parts in planning a wedding is thinking of the guest list (It’s sooo hard!). My family is quite big so aside from Siargao, we also had a Manila reception. From the start, Nick and I both agreed we wanted a very intimate wedding (75 guests!) and wished to be surrounded be guests who genuinely know us as a couple or immensely helped us in planning the wedding. Our love story wasn’t easy so we definitely wanted to celebrate our best
#intheYuNickofTime Wedding Kwento (7 of 9): Forward, March! . Sharing with you the reading during the ceremony: Cor. 13: 4-7 Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; . I have always dreamt of my bridal march - a solemn reveal as big wooden church doors glide open and I walk down the aisle. Then, come the day itself, I was in the car and I saw that they couldn’t close the old wooden church doors - in fact, it was jammed and impossible
#intheYuNickofTime Wedding Kwento (6 of 9): Meet The Entourage! We were so happy to have some of Nick’s family fly in from the UK (Their first time in the Philippines!) and despite the heat, I really wanted the entourage to be suited up.☺️ . . @nickhigson proudly wore a locally made suit (Thank you Brad @libradovillalon of @felipeandsons !) and for someone who has insane suit standards, they did a great job. . My BFF @nicolety flew in from Canada and I really wanted their outfits to be something they could re-use again (diba?) so @carlarcusa .ph made them separates - a
#intheYuNickofTime Wedding Kwento (5 of 9): The Wedding Details! Invites: I wanted something tropical, minimalist and clean for the invites and itinerary. @melagarcia of @kasali .ph got it right away with her first draft! We also used @nikkisunga ’s classy NY monogram in everything we could place it on . Rings: I had to find someone who will make the most important piece of jewellery we will forever wear at the best price. Our bands are customised and hand engraved by my highschool friend @kevinvillarica . For personalized jewellery, you can get in touch with Kevin at 09178455519. I love the wedding bands!!!
