5. The highlight of the evening is watching 3 year old Titoy sing karaoke of "Dancing Queen".
4. You are greeted at the reception by a life-sized statue of Santo Nino.
3. Someone yells "Auntie!" and all the women turn around.
2. Everyone is line-dancing, no matter what song is playing.
1. Your Lola is wrapping leftover food and putting it in her purse.

1. Yung ibang bisita inuwi yung saplot ng upuan. Remembrance daw!(pati table covers!)
2. Yung kubiertos din inuwi, Anim na set!
3. Yung imbitado, nag-imbita rin!
4. May mga dalang zip-lock
5. Sa "catching of the bouquet" walang tumatayo na babae para sumali, ayaw aminin na single parin sila kahit 40 nah!At pag tapon ng bouquet, walang gusto sumalo, kasi ayaw magpakasal, babae raw gagastos sa amerika eh! hehe...

I got one! The wedding cake is an outlandish display on its own! It's got at least 5 tiers connected with some cake accessory with at least 20 figurines on it. It's so huge that it needs its own table to be displayed.

1. laging may candle, veil, chord sa wedding ceremony. di pwedeng mawala ang ringbearer at flowergirl na pamangkin ng mga ikakasal
2. pakialamero ang mga magulang ng bride and groom kahit tapos na kasal
3. masama loob ng mga kamag-anakan at kaibigan na hindi imbitado!

Yung line dancing, eerie, its so accurate nakakatakot.
Pati na rin yung pabaon. Thats to be expected.
Meron pa yung teenager na magaling kumanta because his/her voice is so angelic, after singing is always followed by a drunken uncle or auntie who can't carry a tone.

pag may sing along palakpak lahat kahit sintunado,may ball room dancing always.Nag-aagawan sa center piece kahit hindi give away,palaging may sasabihin sa pagkain na handa pero may take home pa rin...

you see the same people, set of titos and titas every occassion that i once mistook my one tita for the bride who is actually the sis.. as i greeted her "..best wishes!" ..she replied somewhat bewildered "ngek, hindi ako! ..si manang and ikinasal!" ..and i said "..aww! ..i'm sorry" ..i walked away so damn f*ing embarassed, and i felt very stupid for not even noticing that she was not in wedding gown!.. "hindi ba obvious!!" :-)

oh mann soo true but dont forget that the bride puts the cake in her purse too!! haha!
also at least one layer of cake is leche flan and the whole cake came from goldilocks where you bargain with lola and start crying for no discount!
o god this is sooooo funny...
