Rating: Highly Recommended



We first visited this chapel last 2007 and we immediately fell in love with the place. Right there and then we decided na dun kami magpapakasal. We booked Caleruega last July 2007. We weren’t decided on a date yet but we know we wanted an 888 wedding kaya lang they’re booked na on that date so we chose between August 18 or August 28. Nung nagpabook kmi dun lang kmi nagdecide to have it on August 28, 2008. Di nmn kinonsider na it was a Thursday. Heheheh…. Narealize lang nmn na Thursday un cguro few months after na. hehehe… Pero go pa din. No changing of dates. Because I myself hate rescheduling. :D
During preps Crystal of Caleruega was very accommodating. Mabilis magreply sa texts and email kaya wala ako naging problem. Lahat ng queries ko sinasagot nmn nila. That’s what I like about them, mabilis cla magreply. Si Ms. Sally Dastas nmn of St Francis Xavier I contact through YM. Mas mabilis sha sumagot sa YM compared sa text. :D
During the wedding, the ceremony started late. 3:30pm na yata un. Which was OK lang din kasi some of our PS and Entou was late. Hehehe… It was a blessing in disguise na din. On that day, the chapel was magnificently beautiful not to mention the beautiful flower arrangements made by my florist. I looked at it very differently. Sobrang ganda and I fell in love with it all over again. Iba pala talga pag ikaw na ang maglalakad sa aisle. Heheh.... When I entered that Caleruega door, hindi ako naiyak. I was smiling the whole time I was walking. Sobrang kinikilig ako. Si Matt ang naiyak hindi ako. Hehehe…. Sayang hindi nakuhaan ng pic. Hehehe….

The wedding started late na that day since may retreat sha. It started 3:30pm na but ok lang for us. As mentioned above, blessing in disguise. Father Stephen’s homily was great. Ever since nmn na nagsisimba kami sa Caleruega we have always loved his homily. A lot of guests say na magaling ung priest. The only bad comment I can give is mejo nagmamadali sha kaya d na kmi nakapagpapicture with him. Sayang pero its ok pa din.
