The search is over.
I’ve pencil booked one of my chosen designer, Cecilio Abad.
His designs are well raved by fellow brides to be and I can’t wait to see my own gown. Made especially for me…
The only downside is that he won’t be the one who’ll dress me up on my wedding day because he was already booked by another bride with the same date and time and he can only go to one wedding and she booked him first. That’s my fault, I guess,because it took me a long time to really decide and he’s really popular among brides to be.
Our first meeting will be this coming January 5. I can’t wait!

the first gown sketch of Cecile
Jan 4, 2008
Instead of Jan 5, we moved our meeting to Jan 4 due to our family outing.
Billy and I arrived at his shop earlier than planned. When we went inside, Cecile’s “associates” are already busy with their work. When he showed up, he was all smile with a loud “HELLO?!”. Billy said that he almost jumped from his sit! 
We then proceed to talk about my gown. The beadings, the color and so on and so forth. He made another sketch for me this time with an added embelishment (w/c I won’t post here). I then proceeded with his assistant in the dressing area and strip down infront of her. She then made me wear this very tight clothing which was so unflattering! She led me outside again and Cecile took my measurements. Before going home, Cecile even gave us a box of yummy brownies!
Oh, and the best thing about our first meeting, he told me that he’ll be the one to dress me up on my wedding day!
