How
the name VIBE UP came to be: |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
We’ve
known each other since our UP days and we have become vibes when we
met again in NJ some years later. Vibes started in friendship… feeling what the
other feels, thinking what the other is thinking. Often than
not, we are of the same wavelength… the same channel… we’re
“vibes”. Thus we started calling each other Vibe.
As you
can see, V has become our favorite symbol.
|
|
UP
stands for the university where we both attended college –
University of the Philippines. It can also be pronounced as
spelled giving a positive direction in addition to the word vibe.
Visit us from time to time
for updates and news. Feel free also to send us any comments

Meanwhile, sit back,
relax, and Vibe UP!

We're moving-in
to our first home sweet home.
When you visit Los Angeles area, we're just nearby, in Glendora city. You
are very welcome
to visit us here.
Here's an
areal view of our neighborhood. This contains pictures
from the brochure and the furnitures/fixtures are from the previous owners.
We're still in the process of moving in and have not set up our own items yet.
We'd like to thank our first ever official guests: Angelo Lopez and family (Lizette,
Zach, Zeke) last October 28, 2006. That happened to be our first day of move-in
so their visit was very meaningful and greatly appreciated. Thanks again Gelo
and Lizette. |

Everyone is
welcome to visit again when we have
our house blessing - which is not yet set. We'll
let you know when we will have that. |

We have great gratitude and love for our parents for supporting us
in the planning of this wedding, most especially to Mommy Velma who
had performed most of the legwork for us despite her busy schedule.
She sent us copies of menus to choose from as well as brochures
gathered from various wedding shops and wedding exhibits. Most of
the services we had decided on commissioning have been based on our
diligent research and referrals from friends but it is Mommy Velma,
together with Daddy Danny, who makes things happen in Manila. Many
thanks, too, to Mama Gie for making the long trip from Bicol to
Manila to help coordinate with us and Mommy Velma for these
preparations. Thank you too to Daddy Danny for the pieces of
advice and great support.
Thank you Papa Pol for constantly making your presence felt in
spirit. We always feel your inspiration and guidance. |

Thank you our Dear Parents for being the parents that you are to us,
molding us to who we are now. Your love and the way you have
loved your spouses and children will be our model and inspiration in
the family that we will be starting.
Words are not enough to thank you for all the things you have done
for us and for helping us be where we are now. We owe you a
lot and as Catholic teachings say, one way we can repay you is to be
model parents to our children by imbibing the positive values and
attitudes we have learned in our lives through you. It
is not an easy task to be parents and everyone is but human but with
God’s Grace and our love for each other, it is our goal to make our
family a reflection of the family we have always been part of … and
even better we hope
J
God bless you all! |

The
lovely red rose here was taken from a church in San Diego,
California when we were
there on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2004. That was when Neil
officially asked for Vida’s hand in marriage while on the other side
of the globe, in the Philippines, February 15, 2004 afternoon, Mama Gie,
Lynn, Kuya Gani and Felicse visit Vida's family at their residence
in Pasig City for the pamamanhikan .
Meanwhile, in San Diego,
Neil and Vida had a celebration over
lunch at P.F. Chang’s Chinese restaurant together with Mama Gie’s younger
brother - Uncle Larry, his wife Auntie Nilda and their
eldest son - Raymond.

2004 is a lucky year for
Neil and Vida, both born in the year of the Ox. Considering
that their siblings are all nearing marrying age, Neil and Vida decided to have their church wedding
on this lucky year. So started their preparations… first is the
choosing of the dates. Which dates would have a
full moon, which dates will be auspicious, which date in December so families
and friends can gather during the Christmas Holidays, and
most of all which date will still be available in the churches
and reception venues in Manila.
Mommy Velma
and Daddy Danny started searching for availability of
churches and hotels. She has tried many among which included the
church in Guadalupe, Santuario de San Antonio in Forbes Park, Christ
the King in Libis, and others. For hotels, they checked Manila
Peninsula, Shangri-La Makati, and EDSA Plaza Shangri-LA. As
Mary the mother of Christ is close to us, we found Mary the
Queen Parish Church in Greenhills West, San Juan and for reception, the New
World Renaissance Hotel to be a match. And so the big event
will be on December 26, 2004.
