That One Night

Pairing: Dean x Reader

You were in the library, taking advantage of the silence to dive into the next chapter of your favorite book. You reached for your cup of orange cinnamon tea on the table behind you. The cup was almost to your lips when you heard the bunker door fly open. You nearly spilled your drink in your haste to return the cup to the small table next to your chair. Heavy boots clomped down the stairs and you bolted from your chair to greet them.

"Hey, you guys are home early! I take it things went well?" you asked as you stepped in for a welcome-home hug.

"We came, we saw, we sliced off their heads," Dean quipped. "Seriously, though, if you hadn't called with that last minute bit of info, this would've gone very differently. Thank you, sweetheart," he said as he kissed your temple. "You saved our asses tonight."

You felt your cheeks grow warm at hearing Dean's praise. "Let's not exaggerate things, Dean. You guys have been in much tougher situations way before I came along. You survived just fine," you reminded him.

"Maybe, but it's a lot easier, now that we have the best damn research artist in the hunting world," Dean replied. "I'm gonna go take a shower, then we're headed out for a drink. You wanna join us?" he asked you.

"Nah, you guys go ahead. You deserve to celebrate, since you did all the hard work," you answered.

You had your reasons for not always going to the bar. Usually, you sat in the background while Sam and Dean traded stories with other hunters. From time to time, you went up to the bar to pick up another round, or some snacks. Eventually, the boys would each find a warm body to keep them company. Then, you were left to entertain yourself, at least until someone wanted to go home.

"Aw, come on, sweetheart. What you did was just as important. You deserve to have a little fun, too. Please?" Dean pleaded.

You rolled your eyes in mock annoyance. "Fine. While you're in the shower, I'll get changed," you relented with a smile. You decided to dress up a little, so you changed into your new pair of faded blue jeans with decorated back pockets. A sparkly red scoop-neck tank top, black-and-white flannel shirt and your red Converse shoes completed the outfit.

When you heard the shower turn off, you knew you only had about ten minutes before it was time to leave. You fluffed and sprayed your hair to hold it in place, and kept your makeup to a minimum.

"Last one to the garage buys the first round!" Dean shouted. There was no sense in running, since you had decided you were going to buy the first round anyway. You climbed into the back seat of the Impala, and headed to town.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

You'd met the Winchesters several years ago on a particularly nasty ghoul hunt, after which you moved into the bunker. Since you took up residence in the bunker, your role in the hunting world changed. It became less about hunting and more about taking care of things on the home front. You covered the research, kept the boys well-fed and patched up the injuries.

Because of your love for books on any and all subjects, you and Sam quickly became best friends. You liked a lot of the same movies, and told some of the same jokes. You knew every piece of Star Trek trivia, while Sam gave you a run for your money on Star Wars knowledge. On long car rides, you loved to challenge each other with random facts about your favored series.

But Dean? Well....Dean was different. Your dreams were filled with visions of his sexy green eyes gazing at you like you were the only woman in the world. His muscular arms that you longed to have wrapped around you like a warm blanket, keeping you safe. That deep, husky voice of his that nearly melted you every time you heard him call you "sweetheart".

You had no idea when you first noticed your feelings towards Dean were starting to grow. They had almost reached a point to where you were afraid that one day you'd accidentally let it slip. Then you knew you'd hear the inevitable "I love you, but just as a friend" speech. After that, life at the bunker would be forever changed. So you dealt with it the only way you knew how. You pushed your feelings down, ignored them and talked yourself out of having them altogether.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

As usual, most of the talk around the table was about hunting. What wasn't usual was that for some reason, Dean seemed to be paying extra attention to you tonight. He wasn't letting you just sit back and let everyone else talk. He had his arm around your shoulder, sometimes running slow, lazy circles on it, causing goosebumps to form. From time to time, he would lean over and whisper in your ear to tell you some smart-ass remark or a joke.

You looked around the bar and there certainly was no shortage of women for Dean to choose from to keep him company. It made you wonder why he was focusing all of his attention on you tonight. Some of the women would slowly walk by the table, trying to catch Dean's eye, but he didn't seem to care. As they left, the women mostly glared at you, like you didn't belong with Dean.

Jerry, one of the other hunters at the table was in the middle of a story when a blonde and her red-headed friend stopped by the table. "Hey, there handsome," the blonde purred. "Wanna dance?" she asked Dean.

"What a great idea," Dean said as he exited the booth. His eyes never leaving yours, he held out his hand. "Shall we, sweetheart?" he grinned, leaving the blonde to pick up her jaw from the floor.

"I...I...sure, Dean," you stammered. You slid out of the booth and took his hand. When you stood up, you were close enough to Dean that your noses nearly touched.

"After you, darlin'," Dean said. His hand moved from holding yours to the small of your back to guide you to the dance floor, where the next song was a slow one. Dean smiled as he took your hands and brought them up to clasp them behind his neck. Then he settled his hands on your hips and pulled you closer to his chest, swaying you both to the music.

As the song ended, Dean pulled back from you a little, a soft smile on his plump, kissable lips. "Thanks for the dance, sweetheart," he said softly. He leaned in and as he gave you a lingering kiss on the cheek, you closed your eyes in contentment.

"Anytime, Dean," you whispered.

"Want to head back to the table for another drink?" he asked.

"I will in a minute," you answered. A puzzled look crossed his face. "Restroom," you giggled, as he relaxed a bit.

Still tingling from the dance and what happened after, you had a bit of a spring in your step as you headed for the restroom. Maybe there's hope after all, you thought. Maybe it isn't just me feeling this way. You entered the restroom and closed the stall door behind you.

Suddenly the door burst open and slammed against the wall behind it. Somebody's pissed, you thought.

"Joanie, calm down!" you heard.

"Calm down?!? Shelly, how the hell can I calm down?!? I ask him to dance and he completely ignores me!!" Joanie seethed. "And for what?? That stupid, pathetic nerd-girl who never says anything, just fetches drinks for them all night!"

You could see through the space in the stall doorframe that "Joanie" was the blonde from earlier who stopped by your table. "Shelly" was her red-headed friend.

"What could he possibly see in her?" Joanie continued. "She's not pretty, a boring techno-geek who probably runs around quoting 'Star Trek' all the time," she finished.

"Well, he has been drinking, or maybe he felt sorry for her because she doesn't have a boyfriend," suggested Shelly.

"That has to be it. Because there's no way he'd go for someone like her when he could have someone like me. Can I borrow your lipstick? I'm going to go back out there and do something about this. I need to 'freshen' up before I go back out there, though," she giggled.

Tears sprang to your eyes at what they were saying about you. You knew you didn't deserve anything they said about you, but still their words hit a little close to home. Worse, it got you thinking about why Dean was paying extra attention to you tonight. What if they were right? That he was drunk and didn't know what he was doing? Or worse, that he felt sorry for you?

You washed your hands and checked your face before exiting the restroom. You knew your eyes were probably still red, but in the dim lighting of the bar, you thought no one should notice.

When you got back to your table, you noticed that your partially finished drink from earlier was still there. However, everyone else had moved to the back corner where the pool table was. Oh, good. Maybe a game of 8-ball will take my mind off of things, you thought.

You picked up your drink to finish it off. Before the liquid could touch your lips, you heard the same laughter as you did in the restroom. You lowered the glass and your eyes traveled over to the corner. There for all to see was Dean up behind Joanie, helping her line up a shot.

You gasped at the sight before you, final confirmation of Dean's true feelings about you. Joanie must have heard you or had otherwise known you were there. Just before she made her shot, she looked up at you and gave you a knowing smirk. When the ball went into the pocket, she squealed, jumped into Dean's arms and locked lips with him.

Not waiting around to see what came next, you turned on your heel and headed for the back door. The bar had a patio area for additional seating, but it was empty tonight. You climbed up on one of the picnic tables to sit on top as your feet rested on the bench seat. Your hands covered your face as tears streamed down your cheeks.

The sound of flapping wings caught your attention and you turned to see Castiel had appeared, his trenchcoat billowing behind him. You wiped your tears and tried to regain your composure. "Hey, Cas. What are you doing here? Do you need something? Is everything okay?" You stopped because you realized you were rambling a bit.

"Good evening. No, I don't need anything, but I don't think everything is okay with you. Am I right?" he asked.

You turned to look in his ocean-blue eyes and rested your head on his shoulder. "Yeah, you're right, it's not okay with me right now. Can you please take me back to the bunker?" you asked.

"Shouldn't you tell Sam and Dean that you're going home?" Cas asked.

"They'll figure it out when I don't come back from the restroom. Besides, I saw them in the corner at the pool table. They're having plenty of fun without me," you muttered.

In the blink of an eye, you were back in your room, with Cas standing next to you. "Thank you, Cas. I'll be all right for now," you remarked.

"Are you sure? I'm here if you want to talk about anything," he offered.

"I really don't, Cas. I'm going to take a shower then go to bed. Goodnight," you said with a yawn. With a flapping of wings, Castiel was gone.

You gathered your robe and your towel then headed for the showers. The rushing hot water from the shower was doing little to wash away the thoughts about what happened earlier. You put your hair up in your towel and walked back to your bedroom to dry off. After you changed into some pajamas, you locked the door and turned off your light to try and get some sleep.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"So, you didn't see where she went?" Dean asked. He and Sam were returning from the bar, worried about what may have happened to you.

"Dude, you took her out on the dance floor, and that's the last time I saw her. I was too busy on my phone looking for cases to see anything else," Sam replied.

"Dammit! Where could she be? Last place I saw her was after the dance, then she went to the restroom. I thought for sure she'd come back and we could pick up right where we left off," he remarked. "We were having such a good time tonight, too," he muttered.

"I noticed you were getting a little cozy with her tonight," Sam smirked. "If you were having such a good time, what were you doing with that blonde chick, um, Joanie was it?" he asked.

Dean rolled his eyes. "Yeah, that's her. Practically threw herself at me, which, for a woman to do normally isn't a problem. But, this time it felt....wrong, like I was betraying someone," he replied.

He explained to Sam that Joanie had stopped by the table earlier and asked him to dance. He mentioned that he had turned her down and asked you to dance instead.

"Joanie's had her eye on you for months now and hasn't really let up at all. Then you choose someone else to dance with? I bet she was pissed," Sam observed.

Dean said that before you could come back from the bathroom, Joanie dragged him over to the pool table to play. He told Sam that it was his intention to play a game with you, not Joanie.

"Joanie asked me to show her how to make this one shot, so I did. Then she kissed me and afterwards, she asked me if I wanted to go home with her. I told her no, and she went ballistic. Her friend, Shelly, had to drag her out of there, kicking and screaming," he chuckled at the memory.

A little later, Dean pulled the Impala into her parking space in the bunker garage. He raced down the spiral staircase, noticing that all the lights were off but one. When he got to your bedroom door, he tested the knob only to find that it was locked. Dean gently knocked and softly called your name. He didn't hear anything or see any light under your door, so he figured you were sleeping. He turned and went back down the hall to his own room, hoping to get some sleep.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The next morning, you got up early to make breakfast. After last night, you wanted to minimize your chances of running into Dean, at least for the moment. Being in the same room with him was bound to be awkward for awhile. You decided to do your best to keep it on a friendly level, no matter how much you wanted it to be more.

After you finished the last batch of pancakes, you covered them with aluminum foil to keep them and the bacon warm. At that moment, Sam came in from his morning run and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge.

"Hey, what happened to you last night? We were looking all over for you," he remarked, taking a long pull on the bottle.

"What do you mean?" you replied, your eyes never leaving the task at hand.

"Dean said you were in the restroom, then you never came back to the table. What's up?" Sam persisted.

"Nothing's 'up', Sam. I did come back to the table. I was going to finish my drink, realized it was all watered down and left it sitting there. I saw you all in the corner by the pool table, but I started feeling tired. I went out back for some air, Cas showed up and I asked him to take me home," you finished.

"Why didn't you let one of us know where you were? Dean was worried about you when you didn't come back from the restroom. If you were tired, we would've taken you home," Sam said pointedly.

"You all looked like you were having enough fun over there without me, and I didn't want to intrude. Besides, it looked like Dean was keeping himself occupied anyway," you muttered. You put a couple of pancakes on a plate for yourself and snagged some bacon, leaving the bulk of it for Dean. "I'm going to my room for a while. Later, Sam," you said as you exited the kitchen.

You saw Dean walking towards the kitchen and ducked into the library just in time to escape his radar. Guilt crept in that you were actively trying to avoid him, but you felt it would be better for you both in the long run.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

A short time later, Dean stumbled into the kitchen, his hair sticking up in all different directions and his eyes not quite focused. He saw the plate of bacon and pancakes and was on instant alert. "She made breakfast? Where is she now?" he asked.

"She just left, took a plate to her room. She looked tired, eyes were kind of red," Sam explained. He filled a plate and took a seat opposite his brother at the table.

Dean fixed himself a plate of pancakes and mostly bacon. He wanted to talk to you about what happened last night and ask why you didn't come back to the table. He decided that after breakfast, he was going to talk to you and make sure you were okay.

Last night when he couldn't sleep, Dean thought back on the events of the evening. When you said you would go out to the bar, he couldn't believe his luck. He noticed that in the few times when you did join them at the bar, you tended to keep to yourself, not really saying much. Dean wished you felt more comfortable in the group, that you would open up a little more.

When you came out wearing that sparkly red tank top, his mouth ran dry and his heart started racing. It was his favorite color on you, because it reminded him how sassy you were when you wanted to be. He loved your sense of humor, injecting hilarious one-liners into the conversation when no one was prepared.

Dean also knew that beneath your quiet exterior was a woman of genuine caring and pure passion. That's the layer he wanted to get to, and learn more about. Thus, he made it his mission that night to show you that you belonged in the group, even if you didn't always feel that way.

As the night continued, he found himself drawn towards you and really seeing you, maybe for the first time. He thought about how your eyes flash when you and Sam get into your "Star Trek vs. Star Wars" debates. The way your mouth scrunches up when you're researching for a case. Your soft and silky locks that he can't wait to run his hands through or use to tug you closer to him.

The more he noticed about you, the more it made him want to focus more of his attention on you. To him, it felt natural for him to put his arm around your shoulder and keep you close. His fingers tracing patterns over your skin could almost be considered possessive. Kind of like his way of telling other men to back off, that you were his. Having you in his arms as you danced together, he felt an overwhelming sense of peace, and he never wanted to let go.

When Joanie was hanging all over him, it was different. It felt empty and superficial. When she kissed him, Dean didn't feel that connection, that spark the way he did with you. He couldn't wait to break away from her lips and get as far away from her as possible. He realized now who he felt like he was betraying when Joanie was all over him. She wasn't you.

Dean finished his breakfast and put his plate in the sink. He started to walk back to his bedroom when he saw you in the library, reading in your favorite chair. Well, you had a book open in your lap and you were sitting in your chair, but your eyes were doing anything but reading.

As Dean approached you, he could see the redness in your eyes. If he didn't know any better, he would say that you were tired, but he knew that you'd been crying. He was filled with this need to find out who had hurt you and to make sure it didn't happen again.

"Hey," he said softly as he rested his hand on your shoulder to get your attention.

Mask in place, you slowly turned to face Dean. "Hey, Dean. What's up? Is there something I can help you with? Some case you need researched?" you asked.

Dean knelt down next to your chair and searched your face for some clue as to what happened last night. "No, no, nothing like that. No cases right now, you can relax. Are you okay? You seem a little upset about something," he remarked.

You fought to keep your emotions under control and hoped that the battle wasn't showing in your face. "I'm fine, a little tired maybe, but I'm fine," you tried to assure him.

"If you're sure," he murmured, though not quite convinced. "Hey, what happened to you last night? You said you were going to the restroom, then I thought you were coming back," he stated.

You slammed your book closed and abruptly rose from your chair. "I already explained this to Sam. I went back to the table for my drink, but you all were off in the corner by the pool table. About that time, I was feeling tired, so I went out back to get some air. Cas showed up and I asked him to bring me home. End of story," you spat out in a rare flash of anger.

As you started to walk away, Dean quickly stood up, staring after you. He raced to catch up to you before you could leave the library. "Wait a minute. If you saw us over by the pool table, why didn't you come back over? I thought we were having a good time together," he persisted.

"We were, Dean. It was one of the best nights I've had out with you guys in a long time. Until...." you broke off, tears threatening.

Dean reached out and took your hand. "Until what, darlin'?" he asked softly.

You tore your hand from his. "Until I saw you and Joanie locking lips in the corner. After what she said about me in the restroom...." You shook your head. "You know what? I've got no right to say who you hook up with, who you choose to be with. I don't know what I was thinking," you muttered as you started walking towards your room.

"Whoa, wait a minute. What did she say about you? Because I'll guarantee you it's not true," he demanded, blocking the entrance to your room.

You took a deep breath to compose yourself. "She said I was a 'stupid, pathetic nerd-girl, a boring techno-geek who runs around quoting Star Trek all day'," you replied. "She said there was no way you'd go for someone like me when you could have someone like her," you whispered.

"Oh, sweetheart...." Dean whispered, his heart aching for how you must have felt.

"I don't know what's worse, that she said all that, or that I'm inclined to believe her," you started. "I wasn't sure why you were paying so much attention to me last night, when usually you're otherwise occupied.

"But, I do know that I liked how you made me feel, especially when we were dancing. Even if it was for just one night," you admitted softly, your eyes cast downward.

Dean hooked his finger under your chin to tilt your head up so he could gaze into your eyes. "Who said it was for just one night? When you said 'yes' to coming out with us last night, I was so excited, darlin'. I know you don't come out with us often, so I wanted to make it special for you.

"As the night went on, I noticed how much I was enjoying just being with you. It was fun to whisper jokes and comments in your cute little ear, because it let me get even closer to you. To have my arm around you felt like the most natural thing in the world, like you belonged there. Especially true when we were dancing," he grinned, causing you to giggle a bit.

"Dean, when I saw you kiss Joanie, I thought I had read too much into what was going on between us. That you didn't mean it, that she was more like what you wanted. It was one of the reasons why I didn't go over to the pool table. I figured that if you were happy with her, I was going to stay out of the way," you explained.

"Darlin', I swear, that was all her, the kissing part. Anyway, I couldn't kiss back," Dean confessed. "One, I didn't feel anything, there was no connection. And two, I felt like I was somehow being unfaithful to someone....well, to you.

"I couldn't sleep last night because I was trying to figure out how I feel about you. Sweetheart, I am in love with you. You are a compassionate, selfless and intelligent woman who has the biggest heart of anyone I've ever met. That's what makes you beautiful to me. Although I must say, you are smokin' hot on the outside, too," he remarked, waggling his eyebrows.

"I am in love with you, too. Have been for a long time, just never had the courage to say it. You are one in a million, Dean Winchester. You are a smart and caring man, who puts others before himself and who's more than a little bit gorgeous," you giggled. "You are worthy of all the love this world has to give, and I am more than happy to give my heart to you," you finished softly.

Dean licked his lips and reached up with his hand to cup your cheek, while you moved in to close the gap between you. Like two magnets, your lips crashed into each other as what started as a spark soon built into a raging bonfire.

Your tongue swept across Dean's bottom lip to request access, which he gladly granted with a smile. As you explored each others' mouths, you could taste the sweetness of the maple syrup from the morning's pancakes with the salt from the bacon. Your hand slid up to cup his cheek, gently caressing it with your thumb.

Determined to leave no territory untouched, Dean dropped a trail of feather-light kisses across and down your neck. When he reached your collarbone, his playful nips turned into more of a love bite, sucking at the skin to soothe the pain. "Mine," he murmured against your skin.

"Yours, only yours, Dean," you whispered as you ran your fingers through his hair. You gave it a gentle tug and were rewarded with a growl of pleasure.

When the two of you broke apart, you were both panting, trying to catch your breaths. "All this time," Dean began, as he touched his forehead to yours. "All this time, and you were right here. How could I not have seen how lovely and wonderful you are before now?" he mused.

You closed your eyes, your hand still on his cheek. "Doesn't matter, Dean. What does matter is that we're together now. And I intend on making the most of our time, regardless of whatever may come our way. I love you, Dean," you remarked.

"Sounds like a great plan, making the most of our time together. I love you too, sweetheart," Dean replied.

November 24, 2019, the most magical day of my life. ❤

Okay! Hard part is over! 😛 I don’t really like being the center of attention and all. You might say it’s the same since everyone will still be looking at us the entire time. But, with the other half, the reception — people are more relaxed. Everyone will be dancing, talking to each other, singing and eating their hearts out! So, less judging and critical eyes on us. 😀

Our Reception was held at Aquila Crystal Palace. It’s about 30 – 40 minutes from our Ceremony. We had time to relax and just talk to each other in the car on the way there. Mind you, we were still with our bride & groom assistants.

To give you a preview – here’s what it looked like. ❤

BUT BUT BUT! Before we get to that, let’s go back to the start. Shall we? While we were taking our post-nup pictorial, we prepared welcome snacks and drinks for our guests!

Our supplier for this Gabrielle’s Appetizer. We prepared 200 mini sandwiches (cucumber & kani, chicken salad, tuna salad, egg & bacon), 150 mini burgers (chicken and beef), 200 crostinis (gorgonzola bacon, goat cheese & fig ham, prosciutto & brie, smoked salmon) and 2 gallons of cucumber lemonade

I’m so happy to be hearing good feedback from our guests! Their favorites? the mini burgers! But before they can eat, they will pass by our Signages!

I’m proud to say that I designed all the layouts, with the help of my husband, of course. ❤ We decided to maintain the theme of our invitation – White Marble is such a classic and classy design. Aside from the welcome signage, I wanted to add a little extra! – An Infographic of our love story. ❤

While others are eating or taking a photo in our photobooth, we also prepared some games before everything starts!

I personally created a Word Search Game with Startbucks GC for their prizes! I devised a personalized puzzle with words that have roles or connected to our relationship. For instance – Management Trainee (we were both Management Trainees in a bank. This is how we met) 😀 Everything is so much more special when it is personalized. Do you agree?

Before they officially enter the reception area, I also insisted that I wanted a signage for their Seating Arrangement:

I’m definitely proud of this! I’m a huge, huge fan of F.R.I.E.N.D.S! I insisted to insert the friends theme in our seating arrangement! The heading is The One Where We got Married (just like how all their titles are worded). ❤ I also named our tables with all the memorable lines / quirks of the series such as Pivot, Big Fat Goalie, How you Doin and etc.

I also asked our host to ask our guests whether they know what theme our seating arrangement is. I prepared a FRIENDS themed prize also, which I bought online (a Friends Door Keychain).

The One thing that will welcome our guests upon entering the place is our Animated Monogram.

At first, I wanted a White Background with Gold font for our names. But our coordinator pointed out that I may not be seen if the background is also white. 😛 So, we decided to switch to Dark Green, still in line with our theme. ❤

Okay! So when we arrived at the scene, it’s time for our make-up retouch and time to fill our stomach with the incredible feast we chose for our guest. ❤ It was really delicious. While we were having our early dinner, there’s another game inside the reception: TRIVIA GAME where we gave out bags of chocolates for every correct answer. Some of the questions were: First movie together, Who said I love you first, Term of Enderament, Favorite Series Marathon food. (Some of the answers to the questions were posted in our Infographic) 😀 Clever. Huh?

Initally, we wanted the Fireworks at the end of the program. But we were also hesitant to schedule it after since it was Sunday and our guests might leave early.

Proven! Guests really do enjoy the fireworks! It also elevates your event! ❤ After the fireworks, guests were asked to return to their seats for the Grand Entrance. 😛

Our Bridal Squad were introduced in the tune of Dura by Daddy Yankee. while our Groom Squad danced to Boneless by Steve Aoki.

As you can see, our male squad is definitely more coordinated with Matt Stefanina dance moves. Hence, they won the challenge of who’s better. 😛

Followed by the entrance of our esteemed entourage, our Prenup / Save the Date Video was shown to all of our guests.

And our Grand Entrance in the tune of Good Life by One Republic, inspired by our Wedding Hashtag of #itsJANNAbeaJUDElife transalated as It’s gonna be a good life.

TIP: Please please be witty enough to think of your own wedding hashtags! One, it’s simply fun. Two, it will encourage your guests to use your hashtag. Three, you’ll have an easier time in collating pictures and videos related to your event if it’s clear that YOU are the only ones using it instead of #JudeandJannaforever or #JudeandJanna2019. Maximize the power of hashtag!

For our Grand Entrance, we decided to use our Indoor Fireworks (which is not shown in the photo) plus this heart shaped confetti free of charge from our Coordinator. ❤

Followed quickly by our entrance, we gave a bit of our opening remarks to our family, friends and loved ones who celebrated with us.

Our first ever dance as a married couple is in the tune of Say you won’t let go by James Arthur. 🙂 This is also the song I was singing to when he proposed. ❤ This song is really special. ❤ Again, there were Indoor Fireworks and confetti as well.

Wedding Traditions followed such as Cake Cutting and Wine Toasting!

Our 3 tier carrot cake is designed with pure white with gold highlights with huge floral appliques. It’s so good! I’m actually sad that we forgot that it was in our ref.

The wine that we toasted is free from our package with Aquila Crystal Palace. If I remember it correctly, it was not hard because I finished it instantly. ❤

My sister, one of the Matrons of Honor started the speech followed by my Brother in law and finally, my Best friend ended the speeches by inviting everyone to offer a toast for our marriage. ❤

After the long speeches, it’s time for the most awaited time of our guests! Dinner time. ❤ The cousins of my groom, Seth and Yohan led the prayer.

While the guests were eating or in line to get their food, some of the music that we chose to be played are the following: The way you look tonight, Collide, The last time, if I ain’t got you, Everything, Perfect and Close to you among others.

Well, you know how this goes already. . . . . before they can even line up to the buffet, they all have to take a picture with us. ❤ Here are some of them.

While eating, another batch of Speeches coming from our Principal Sponsors.

Principal Sponsor speeches! We had to choose one from each of our side. My God mother, sister of my father gave a speech while it was a Family friend from the Groom’s side. After the speeches, a couple of games again — which is the second best game! Minute to Win It – Wedding edition. ❤

So we filmed a one time, one shot games of: Segregate it, Pingpong Ball, Shoot the Ball etc. Each table have to guess who won whether it’s the Bride and the Groom! Everyone turned out to be competitive at this part. ❤

After an interactive game, it’s the Parent Dances!

We decided to dance simultaneously to the tune of You are so Beautiful by Joe Cocker. 😀 I was scaring my dad and reminding him of their speech! 😛 while I think my mother in law is having the best time dancing with his son. ❤

After a bit serious of dances, it’s fuckin time for another game! Another game? We can never miss out on Single’s Game! To get the suspicion out of their minds, our host called them like they are about to receive a prize.

Men are lined up in front – a music is played and whoever dances the right move first gets to seat down! The following music were played – Watch me whip, Soulja Boy, Teach me How to Dougie, Gangnam, Level Up, Stayin Alive, Thriller and Can’t Touch this.

Then whoever doesn’t dance, will remain in front and the ladies will start searching for the safety pin. The lady who doesn’t find a single pin, loses. ❤

The losers of both games, or rather the last man and woman standing wins a Starbucks GC which they can use to go on their ‘date’ – a little matchmaker doesn’t lose its touch on weddings!

It’s my husband’s colleague and one of my closes high school friend! ❤ And after this fun game, our host now calls on both of our parent’s for the wise words.

It’s the Welcome to the Family speech! It’s such a cliche but really overwhelming. It warms your heart, right? I felt really happy to hear it goes both ways. ❤ I have no better way of saying this but it felt really good.

Before the night is over, we prepared some awards to be given to our guests.

Cool Tito Award (right picture) and Fab Tita Award where we award the Best Dressed one – we gave them Wine and a Tefal Pan. ❤ We also awarded Dressed to Kill (Upper Right) for the Best Dressed Millenial and we gave them a 6-pack beers and a Make Up Kit. Lastly, we gave out a Grand Prize (Lower Right) for the best picture and handed them a powerbank.

Then we played our On Site Photo and our Save the Date Video. ❤

Look at our faces!! ❤ Our Photo Team is led by TJ of Timoteo Photo and our SDE was created by Mac by Stories by Supermac! Extremely in awe, hearts bursting with joy and overwhelmed with gratitude and love. ❤

Before our night ends, we said our Thank yous and invited them for a night full of dancing and drinking!

Look at our ceiling treatment filled with an all white embellishments and gold highlights and black draping to make our ceiling pop out! ❤

The night ends as mentioned, with drinking and dancing! ❤ ❤ ❤

Our last picture before our guests go back to Manila! First up, my colleagues!

My brother and his girlfriend before they fled out of the scene. 😛 Haha. Next? Our Wedding Buddies, one week apart and now, we’re all married. ❤

I always come in threes, Don’t I? And Of course, My Bestfriends since High School.

It always put a smile on my face when I see my friends from different groups come together like this. 🙂

And before this day ends, I need a picture with my husband. ❤

I love you so much, husband! ❤ ❤ It’s been five months and it’s still the Best Day of My Life. ❤

EVERYDAY: Our Wedding (Reception) November 24, 2019, the most magical day of my life. ❤ Okay! Hard part is over! 😛 I don't really like being the center of attention and all.
