We got married on March 1992 in San Juan, Metro Manila, Philippines.
It was a simple garden wedding held in a residence of a Nicky's friend. We wanted a small wedding but since Nicky is a pastor, we had no choice but make room for more than just a few relatives and friends. And of course, in the Philippines, if you invite one, you're really inviting three or four people. But looking back, it was fun!!!

Sally marching with her parents
Sally's parents, Danny and Minda have been wonderful to us. Even when I was courting Sally, they were so nice and thoughtful. Here they are about to give their daughter to me. |
Receiving the bride
Here is when I took Sally from her parents. They were a bit hesitant but in the end, they had to release her. |

The lovely couple
We thank God for providing the place for our wedding which we used for free! Not only was it available without charge, the owner even had it cleaned for us. Thanks. |

We thank the Lord for our parents who loved, nurtured and took good care of us. We would not be where we are without them.

Sally flanked by two angels
I just love this scene of Sally by the pool with her two flower girls. My life has been so blessed with her. Sure there are tough times, but life is truly more satisfying if you marry the right person. I did! |
