Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru, Maldives

It has always been a dream destination of mine to go to Maldives – it’s been on my bucketlist forever! Aside from the fabulous experience and the beautiful tan I went home with – I got something better: A fiance.

The Curious Cat Travel Guide 2018: Our 4-Day Siargao Itinerary (For Non-Surfers)
Dubbed as the “Surfing Capital of The Philippines”, Siargao has gained attention for its powerful waves, lush greenery and clear waters. Located in Mindanao, this beautiful island is also a home to exciting activities and sights that will cater to non-surfers/non-swimmers. I may or may not know how to swim but I love the beach so much. So if your crew is looking for a place to go this year – here is my 4-day Siargao travel itinerary!
I’ve been thinking for quite sometime now whether to retain or change my last name but I think Mrs. Alexandra Higson has a nice ring to it. Watchathink? . . “Just Married” sign was hand embroidered by our @shopstylecat weavers ❤️ #intheYuNickofTime
#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!).

Our love story wasn’t easy so we definitely wanted to celebrate our best

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!!!
