About Weddings 2006 roundup
Leafing through the pages of About Weddings issues from the past 12 months, we’re reminded of how beautiful it is to write about weddings. We remember the couples we’ve met and the stories they’ve shared, the suppliers and all those whose talents have graced our pages in 2006, and we can’t help but marvel at the wedding industry for being what it is—dynamic, vibrant, bursting at the seams with sheer genius, and intent on achieving one purpose and one purpose alone: to make people happy.
Best Face Forward
With the slew of makeup products out there, standards have gotten higher with every product introduced to the market. It is not enough that your lipstick be a flattering shade of pink; now, it has to moisturize your lips while nourishing it with vitamins and making it look fuller, treating the fine lines, plumping, adding sparkle and shine, and lasting the whole day after eating, smoking, drinking, and running a marathon. Such great expectations, and yet, the scientists at secret makeup labs have not only come up with products that deliver, but they also manage to add a little more that we didn’t realize we needed (and now must have).
About Weddings' 2006 Best of the Best
Planning a wedding presents a lot of challenges for soon-to-weds, and their first hurdle is to answer the question of where to have the wedding ceremony and reception. Many things have to be considered before the final church and reception venue choices are made. But one choice in the highlands of Baguio stands out for many wonderful reasons.
The Best Weddings of 2006!
For our year-ender column, we asked several wedding suppliers which wedding they considered the best among clients they handled this year. After all, who better to judge the year’s best than the very people took part in and witnessed countless weddings in 2006?
Start on your own with something close to home:
The Philippine national flower, Sampaguita, inspired the new home collection of Crossings Department Store (Shangri-la Plaza and Quezon Avenue). Rachy Cuna, the store’s creative stylist, commissioned select local artists and artisans to interpret the Sampaguita design in the materials they work with. The ubiquitous flower was transformed into an icon and applied to traditional materials with modern twist.
