This week was a love-filled week... I attended 3 weddings of an officemate, a college friend and a family member. Also this week, I found out that two among the closest people in my life are having a baby! :) so to tally, we have 4 expectant moms towards the end of the year. :)
This afternoon, my mom and I dropped by Megamall (after attending a wedding in Mandaluyong) to check out the book and buy rates of Eastwood Richmonde Hotel, but it didn't work out. Our wedding date wasn't included in their promo rate. So we just looked around and I showed my mom some of our booked suppliers such as the wines, P/V and photobooth. We also passed by a florist who I asked a quote from yesterday.
And this is why I mentioned "what a small world it is" coz my mom knew the owner of the flower shop. Ms. Evelyn of Flowers of May used to be a lector in our parish in Marikina several years ago. My mom is also active in church and serves as the mother butler in our chapel. So they made chickahan about our parish, the past priests and so on and so forth... I also found out that she was my classmate in cosmetology class sponsored by our barangay loooong time ago. So we joked, "So ano, may parlor ka na?"
I've always been curious about inquiring at Flowers of May since I used to live in Teacher's Village during my thesis year in UP and now the fiance is living there too for almost a year now, so the flower shop is a noticeable landmark to us, to me in particular. But it's just surprising that the owner is someone very familiar to us and also served our Parish.
But just a few minutes ago, I read some negative reviews about them. But I guess my research was a couple of hours late coz we already booked them. I'm just trusting my instincts (and my mom's too) and our very comfortable and easy transaction earlier. And also lifting our preparations to God for a smooth and hassle-free wedding day. :)
