The Make Up Artist:
It felt good hanging out with Sabs. We were schoolmates during HighSchool. I was a freshman and she was a senior. During the Senior-Freshman Acquaintance day she was my "Big Sister" That day, I was given the full make up while going around campus. So when I heard and saw in magazines that she pursued a career by making all the brides pretty during their big day, I wasn't surprised. I was so giddy and happy that she was free for our wedding! When Jong bought me wedding magazines, it was so nice to see her name written on almost every page as the make up artist :) Coolness. After I booked Sabs, I couldn't stop bragging about it to my HS friends!

Thank you Sabs and Tony for making me look super girly that day :) Jong loved it!

The Photographers:
I adored Jeff and Lisa ever since I saw their link from Jason Magbanua's site.

So curious I was a stalker. So excited I was that kid from Despicable me shouting "OMG it's so fluffy I'm gonna die!!!" Yeah that feeling.

Every update of their blog, I was waiting and asking for more. For the first time during wedding preps, I had the "This is it" moment. I asked Jong to book them and made it a non-negotiable.
Ultimately I was emailing Lisa and sharing nonsense stories. It was like talking to an old friend you haven't seen for a very long time, yep, I felt that close. Haha. Anyways,with lots and lots of planning and location changes before the engagement session none of those plans came true. It was all about what we felt that day, no props, no balloons, no flowers, just us.

Jason Magbanua, Jeff and Lisa, Sabs Hernandez = Non negotiable

With that team, we knew it was going to be an awesome wedding day.. and it was!

Super Hug :)

Wedding: Sabs Hernandez/Tony Dusich Trial Hair and Make Up

Sabs Hernandez's Blog post :)

Me so Happy!!

Only 1 week to go before Kamille's big day! My bride from Australia had her trial session today with me and Tony. They were having their prenup pictorial today and Tony and I agreed that this was the perfect look for her.

Kamille is very kalog so a more casual and yet sweet was the way to go.

I airbrushed her makeup, contour and cheeks and did everything else by hand,

which is still the best for precision. LOVELY!

I just love iridescent powders!

[Wedding] July 28

FINALLY :)

After waiting for what seemed like forever, I can surely say, it was worth the wait!

We had a simple ceremony at the Perth Registry around 2:30pm. My uncle and aunty came as our witnesses and my cousins who couldn't go home for the church wedding were there to cheer us on.

It was a perfect day for a wedding, we took photos around Kings Park, South Perth foreshore and at Dome.

Course of events for the day:

10am - picked up my dress from Collezione
1030am - Had our healthy lunch at Subway
11am on our way home
12pm - preparation for the ceremony
1pm - My Uncle arrives with his videocam and took photos of us with Cupid
130pm - Photos at Kings Park
2pm - Walked through the busport to get to the registry, heaps of people were congratulating us and smiling at us.. it was a good feeling :)
230pm - The Celebrant arrives and tells us to move to the ceremony room
245pm - Found out Hunny's name was spelled incorrectly!
250pm - The legal requirements were read while our cousins kept taking photos
3pm - We were legally married!!

We thanked the Lord for all His abundant blessings to us.
For good things come to those who wait...

Love and happiness.. I'll be updating the photos after the reception with the family on August 8! :)

[Wedding] Why Purple and Orange?

Symbolism of Orange

Orange is a power color. It is one of the healing colors. It is said to increase the craving for food. It also stimulates enthusiasm and creativity. Orange means vitality with endurance. People who like orange are usually thoughtful and sincere.


Why I picked Orange:

Cause I love Tigger! Orange depicts bouncy-happy-fun-fun-fun!

And that basically represents me!

Symbolism of Purple


Purple has been used to symbolize magic and mystery, as well as royalty. Being the combination of red and blue, the warmest and coolest colors, purple is believed to be the ideal color.

Why we picked Purple:

Purple means Royalty! (Plus it was the only color that I could think of that can go well with Orange, other people might disagree but it is our wedding after all! Haha!)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

49Days to Go!!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Together, these colors remind of Perth's Sunset... For some reason, we always seem to have purple and orange clouds during sunset... Must be cause it's winter, I'm not sure. All I know is, These colors represent us perfectly.

A little wacky and cool and calm at the same time.

[Wedding] Our Official Monogram!

[Wedding] Bitter Sweet Giveaway

When I was in Sydney, my Aunty bought me the Jordan Almonds waaaaaaay before we even confirmed the wedding date...

Apparently, we "should" have it as our souvenirs. Should I say no to something free???
Of course not! :)

Funny thing is, I haven't even tasted one yet!

Here's a sample of the Thank You card we might be using... :)


PS. Thanks Hunny!
