Our Filipiniana Themed Wedding - Ideas to consider




Choosing a wedding theme was not that easy for us.  We were torn between just having color motif and having a rustic feel.  Until my ex-fiance-now-husband suggested why not have a Filipiniana-themed wedding.

We were both ecstatic as we shared the news to our respective families.  The second challenge was to select the color motif that can go with the theme.  We had black and red, coral and bluegreen, and turquoise and red.  The last tandem was what we chose since it will just be in tangent with the Christmas colors that season.

In this article, you will see the various details that were worked on.

The Invitations

The invites were hand-crafted by my sister, Marisse. She has an arts and crafts business under the name of Rookiehands.  All the texts in the invites are in Filipino. We had to research in the internet the had them corrected by the Filipino speaking friends of ours.
