Joey & Mae (Wiwaha Chapel, Bali, Indonesia)

Published on April 5, 2011 by markku

If it’s not mad, passionate love, it’s just a waste of time.

It took me quite a while to finally blog about this wedding. With Joey being one of my closest friends, it just seemed like I couldn’t find the right words. It was simply too hard.

So I’ll just quote his wonderful words and let them speak for their blessed union.

Our love will be the love story that everyone will celebrate.

It will be the good news that everyone shares.

It will be the legend that writers immortalize, …

100908-1747-9695

… the ideology that philosophers build on, …

100908-1737-1904

JMC0882

… the standard that everyone follows.

100908-1745-1968

It will transcend space, time, dimensions and realities.

JMC0830

It will be a reminder that love, and everything that comes with it, exists and that it is the one thing that makes this life worth living.

Being witness to Joey’s life stories and lessons, I’ve seen the concept of love in all its gloom and beauty. Yet now, seeing Joey & Mae bask in its glory, it is proclaimed—it is the one thing that makes life worth living.

      Thanks Joey and Mae bai! Grin

      We really enjoyed shooting your wedding. I remember Mae’s speech nung reception nyo when she said you both decided to have the wedding in Bali because you wanted everyone to have wonderful memories of your wedding…and we brought home tons of it Smile We were able to travel to 2 beautiful countries, we gained more friends, and more importantly, we we’re able to witness you pledge your love to each other. yikee! Grin

      We hope to see you guys again…soon! Wink Para ma-meet namin ang bebe nyo Grin
