SAME DAY EDIT: JUN + CHRYSTEL

 

 

They say that every #love story has its own challenges and triumphs. Many have tried, some have failed, while others succeed. Jun and Chrystel are no strangers to that, for theirs is a love story that has endured time, distance, and circumstance. In the words of the Bride to the Groom, “I love you when we are together, and when we are apart.”

Jun and Chrystel’s love story started in college; around the time when most people start to find ‘The One’ – although at that point, it was unbeknownst to them that they’re already looking at the one whom they will share their ‘life, love, laughter, and happily ever after’ with.

Like most couples, their story was not without tribulations. But even if the odds seemed to not always be in their favor, they have managed to not only stay afloat, but they have nurtured the love they have for each other despite the adversity. After all – for Jun and Chrystel – distance, time and circumstance did not matter; for in the end, love saw them through.

The Bride and Groom were fortunate to have amazing people on board to orchestrate such a magical #wedding, but it was the people dear to them who made the event even more special. Family and friends came in droves to show their love and support for Jun and Chrystel as they turn a new leaf.

The Bride was radiant in her stunning wedding dress, while the Groom looked dapper in his tailored suit. Everything was wonderful on that day, and the maid-of-honor summed it all up perfectly, “A wedding day will be remembered for all the joy it brings; a day of love and happiness, a day of new beginnings, learning what love truly means. Your wedding is just a start to many hopes and dreams.”

To Jun and Chrystel, we are honored to be part of your happily-ever-after, and we only have the best wishes for you on the new journey that you will be embarking as husband and wife. Congrats to the new Mr. and Mrs.!

Triumph of Love Amidst the Flood

Typhoon Sendong, said to be the deadliest cyclone to ever hit Cagayan de Oro, ravaged the city in 2011. The entire community was shaken, properties were reduced to rumble, and dreams were shattered. Countless people were swept away by the infernal flood waters, while numerous lives were lost in the process. Two of the people whose lives were changed forever on that fateful day were Gary and Bevelyn.

Til Death Do Us Part – one of the most overly-used wedding vows which meaning has now sadly began to erode. But for these Sendong survivors, this very phrase was what kept them alive up to this very day.
