Ella Bella and Oleoleol Finally Tying the Knot

The last time I remembered blogging was about my “quarter-life-crisis-relationship-issues”. I was at this point accepting to myself, that I’m meant to be more career-oriented-woman and that of relationship becomes my least priority.
I’m not telling that I’m already falling-out-of-love during that time. I just felt that Marko and I should have leveled-up our relationship after 7 years of being together.
April 9, Marko invited me to meet our college best friends in Eastwood. He requested me to wear a dress, but I refused to. I told him it’s a “usual day lang naman”. Little did I know of what’s he’s up to.

We grabbed some ice cream in Swensen’s with my UBE friends (machu, kiethlee and sowkie). We did a lot of catching up stories while Marko was complaining with his headache. 



It was 7pm when we headed to Isabelo’s Garden Restaurant in Marikina for our dinner. When we are about to approach the restaurant, Marko started covering my eyes. I started having butterflies in my tummy because I know he is up to some sort of surprise like he usually do. Keeping my expectations low, I’m not expecting for a proposal because he never gave me signs.



When I was asked to open my eyes, I saw placards held by my friends and siblings. It says “WILL YOU MARRY HIM ->” pointing to Marko holding a stem of rose. I saw my mom and dad on his side who was also caught by surprise (both were teary-eyed).

To my friends, Kiethlee ChuaMatthew Sales and Sowkie Perez, Thanks for being part of this special event. I can’t imagine how nervous Marko was.



To my soon-to-be-husband, Oleoleol Valencia. (although hindi pa nag sink-in). I know we’ve been waiting for this for so long (almost 9 yrs in the making). I can never thank you enough for the love and patience you never failed to give me. You know how much I love you and thank you for making this special ♥
