Venue #2

Since we're on the Saving side for the preps, Ser and I decided to check out other reception venue aside from Rosemont.  Upon Searching the net, I came across Beatriz Garden.  So we asked our friends (members of the ento) if they could accompany us in going there and they agreed.  

So this day, we went to Tagaytay! :)

First Stop: Caleruega Transfiguration Chapel.

So this is how Caleruega looks like after the wedding.. :)

When we arrived at Caleruega, a wedding ceremony has just ended.  We were able to see the photo ops after the ceremony.  [Grabe feeling ko kapagod yung ganun!hihi.. :)]

I also saw Ms. Abby, our Coord from KTG! What a small world, right?  I asked Ms. Abby where the reception is, she told me "Rosemont!" hahaha! [parang madami na silang Rosemont weddings :)] 

I was shy that they may caught me taking pic of the wedding but I can't resist it so I took a picture of the bouquet instead.. :)

The Bouquet

Second Stop: Plaza de Aza 

After maki-chikka with the photo ops, we checked Plaza de Aza to see if we could have the reception there.

Ma'am Beatriz was sooo kind!  Always helpful! She answered our inquiries and gave us tips on the areas in the garden. Makweto so hindi kami na-bore.  Our friends looove the place..  We love it too! :)

Ang ayoko lang sa experience ko with Beatriz Garden is when Mami Betty (this is what we call Ma'am Beatriz..hihi) is when she saw me she immediately asked, "Ilang taon ka na ba?"  when I answered her with my age, she said, "akala ko teenager ka pa, bawal sana..hahaha!"  I don't know if I'll be flattered or what with this..hahaha! :)
