Wedding Extravaganza : Congrats Gen & Dina!

Well they don't call it a long weekend for no reason! Usually having a wedding Saturday and Sunday is a piece of cake - but having attended Gen's wedding and being up for 21 hours with no nap and sleeping 4 hours before Dina's wedding - I was EXHAUSTED! It was inevitable I was going to feel it and that I definitely did. I started getting the chills Sunday afternoon but I popped in 2 Advils and it seemed I was perfectly fine - that was until 4am the next morning when they came back in full force making it difficult to walk or pull myself up. I downed a cup of NeoCitron and woke up 2 hours later drenched from a fever which I broke, but still a lot of muscle aches. All in all, I'm still trying to get better - but I got to say, it was an awesome weekend LOL.

Gen & I attend the same church - so it was nice not only to be a part of her wedding, I also attended it. The last two months have been difficult with her father suffering multiple strokes, but she has been so strong in her faith and maintain such an amazing outlook. Gen did not only have 1, not 2, but 5 hair changes...1 which I threw in lol. Though I do not have photos of them all (hopefully I can get off Glendon later on) - below was her first do of the day.

Sunday I had the chance to take part in Dina's wedding who was referred to me from a previous bride and friend, Pei. I have to say - from the moment I met Dina, I could tell it would be a calm wedding day and sure enough it was. Her relaxed personality combined with her "take it as it comes" attitude made for it super easy for me to do my job. It was extra special because I had to chance to work with the always talented makeup artist, Vanessa and the one and only Joee Wong. For Dina's wedding do, we did a Hybrid. For the ceremony she had her hair swept up in a full updo, and with a few tricks up my sleeve, I was able to construct the style so that Pei would be able to take the bottom portion down later on at the reception to reveal a romantic Halfie.

Both weddings were fun to be a part of and I only wish them both a lifetime of happiness!!
