There's just something about firsts. In this case, this is my first wedding for the year 2011. And what makes it more special is that both the bride and groom are good friends of mine.
Ton and Terri were my chaptermates in Singles for Christ, which is also where they met. Terri is a preschool teacher while Ton or "sir Mark" in his corporate environment is in the telecoms industry. Both of them have devoted themselves to serving the underprivileged kids in Gawad Kalinga and it was in this setting that each of them got to know the other more.I remember first finding out that they were seeing each other during the preparations of my own wedding some 18 months ago, and when I found out that they were engaged, I remarked to Terri that time flew so fast and that here they were, about to start their own journey. God is good indeed!

Everyone in the Wong household was in high spirits as Terri, an only daughter, was getting ready for her big day. I just loved how her family pitched in and made sure that the bride was having a grand time. Whenever you have a bride who's in the moment and not distracted by the details of the wedding, you know you're in for a great shoot. Kudos to Len and Junie of Amaris Events for making sure the day went without a hitch. Great job as always, guys!
To Ton and Terri, it was a fun-filled day which I will not soon forget, and I'd like to say thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special day. Your friendship has blessed me and I pray that each day will bring you closer to each other as you discover God's awesome plan for you both. Enjoy, guys! The ride's just beginning!
