Wow that's a nice news ha....... Congrats jay & zobel! were happy for both of you!:BouncyHappy:
At Last for a 6 years of being engaged,now you will be together :Rasp:

[Jay&Zobel]

Yay! we will be together soon and not far off be married. its all an exciting trip. but many trials still ahead but atleast now we will be hand in hand throught them all.

Those that are applying for their visa. it maybe tough and scary hehe. i was worring every day about it. (what if they dont think its real, what if i did something wrong). i worry alot. but it all went to plan. and we had a great result, with no interview involved. it was more simple than expected. but dont be unprepared we held off sending our visa to make sure we had everything we could to get the best result and it worked. now we are soon to be together and soon to be married.

i hope and pray all of you applying will get the same good news soon.

regards

Jay (Super happy version)

Congratulations to you both from my wife Louella - now enjoying the glorious UK weather - and myself, currently trying to track down some thermal long johns for her, and it's only the beginning of autumn now. I can recommend that the first purchases you make when you get here are, hand gloves, a woolen hat and a warm woolen neck scarf. Then start trying to track down the thermal underwear.

Mabuhay Jay & Zobel!!!
I would suggest you buy at least 2 pairs of warm shoes & lots of jeans. Mind you, it's really, really expensive here!!! Aside from that, socks, hand gloves & very thick coats.
I'm still adjusting to the weather here & even if its sunny, i feel freezing. My "asawa ko" really takes good care of me & everytime we went to the mall, he see to it that he bought me a set of hand gloves, scarf & a hat.
Hope to meet you guys in person as well as the rest of the couples here in the forum. God bless us all!!!

warm regards,
Louella

flight tickets

2> cover letter from your fiance telling how you met, how much you love each other etc

I've also done the notes for the best man speech :rolleyes:

A wedding is a funeral where you smell your own flowers.

The trouble with being the best man at a wedding is that you never get to prove it.

Here's to our wives and lovers. May they never meet.

Marriage is like a cage; one sees the birds outside desperate to get in, and those inside equally desperate to get out.
