At the end of the year, the Philadelphia Wedding Photographers hold a contest for the best wedding photo of the year. In the last five years, no one has ever repeated as winner. After the eliminations, five photos made it the finals. The first finalist is the photo of a couple during the reception. The husband accidentally slipped and his wife held on to him. It was a funny photo because we usually see the husband helping the wife. The second finalist is a photo of a child holding the hand of the bride as she walked to the altar. The two were smiling as they walk. The groom was also caught smiling. The third finalist is a photo of the entire wedding entourage wearing black except for the bride who was wearing white. The fourth photograph is a photo of a groom crying as the bride walks the aisle. It was unique because we don’t usually see the groom crying during the wedding. The fifth finalist is a photo of the parents of groom kissing their son. Both parents were crying as they kiss and hug their son. All pictures have stories to tell as the photographers relate to the others. The judges are the California Wedding Photographers including a Minnesota Wedding Photographer . The photographers of the final entries were asked by the judges to give a background of the photo. After a serious discussion about the photos, the winner is the third finalist. It was all black because the groom died three days before the wedding. The bride decided to push through with the wedding and the entourage wanted to wear black. The bride agreed and the wedding was held.

WITNESS BOYNE CITY WEDDING
I was invited to attend a wedding of a close friend abroad. And so ahead of time I tried to plan and prepare everything. I am not used to going abroad and so I tried to get enough knowledge on how it would be. In fact this is the first time that I would be traveling this far. By the way, the event will in the Unites States in the city of Boyne. Knowing western culture I do not expect to see a wedding ceremony similar to what we have here in the Philippines. The idea of going to a foreign place, meeting new people and witnessing different culture and practices really makes me feel excited.
The wedding ceremony was simple and unlike ours here in the Philippines, t was only attended by few and chosen guests. There is something unique of course in the venue and celebration which they call boyne city wedding. The reception was held in a garden restaurant not far form the Church where the wedding was held. The food was indeed great and some are really new to me. I feared having stomach ache because I really wanted to try everything offered in the buffet table. It’s a good thing that my tummy was able to manage it. I recommend boyne city wedding to couples who would want to have a simple and yet meaningful and romantic wedding day. If only I have the resources, how I wish to give my future wife this kind of wedding. But in a way, wedding celebrations here in our country can still be considered great.

SANDWICH CUTTERS HELPS PERK UP PARTY
I needed something to perk up the kiddie party which my 7 year old will have in a few days time as he invited all of his friends for an overnight in our home, and since I agreed, I knew I needed something to make things fun for the kids and I was at a loss aside from the games and usual party stuff. So while I was making and preparing the ingredients for the sandwiches, I suddenly remembered this one site I came across one time where they had different shaped sandwich cutters and I felt this was something I can use, so I immediately searched back for that site, and found it, called www.sandwichcutters.com, and with that, I was able to order some different shaped sandwich cutters that I know the kids will like. Ranging from batman designs for the boys, and hello kitty and betty boop for the girls. And true enough, after preparing all of them and cutting them up to the designs, as soon as the kids saw it, they were so excited to eat the sandwiches, and soon enough, they also wanted to do their own sandwiched using the sandwich cutters that I bought online from the site I mentioned above. Overall the party was a success and the kids were so happy and excited with their food that I felt relieved I was able to host the party successfully for my son. I am ready for a round 2 in any case now.
