The union of TR and Alf

TR is the eldest son of a friend and former boss, Robbie. Alf is TR's girlfriend for six years. And, they invited us to attend and witness their wedding at 2:30 PM yesterday, November 22.

The sacrament of matrimony was held at 2:30 PM at the National Shrine of the Sacred Heart in Makati City. The reception followed at the Grand Ballroom of the Mandarin Oriental Manila. Wow! It's a grand celebration.

November 22 is our wedding anniversary. Before receiving the invitation two weeks earlier, however, we had plans of celebrating our anniversary out of town. And, since the invitation was R.S.V.P., we just decided to inform them that we could not attend.

Our congratulations and best wishes to you, Attys. TR and Alf. Congrats too to Robbie and Ming for the new addition to your family. We're very sorry for not attending this momentous event.

The groom, Rogel, and his bride, Aileen, have vowed to each other:

“I take you to be my spouse, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do us part.”

We already received our invitation to the wedding of our nephew, Jing, and niece-to-be, Babette, who personally delivered it.
