Meeting the W@Wies @ the W@W Christmas Party

won an iPod Shuffle @ W@W Christmas Party

It was a last minute decision for us to come to the party;  we asked “Fei ni Stan” a day before regarding our attendance.  Good thing she replied to us that we are already included in the list, thanks Fei!   We went there around 8:30, got their freebies, completed the sign-up sheet and joined the raffle.

The place was already packed with a lot of W@wies and we almost failed to get a sit.  The timing of our arrival was also off because people were already getting their food and we can't tell if a seat is already taken or not.   A nice guy from Imagine Nation Photography told us that there are still sits in front.  We waited there until the people settled down and asked them if we can share a sit with them. They were very nice people, smiled @ us and said that its alright.  After getting our sit, we got our food, ate and enjoyed the rest of the night’s festivities.

While eating our food we saw some familiar faces who are also bloggers like us.  We saw Ching & Gail and Ada Mae.  Aside from co-w@wies, we also saw the founder of W@W John & Benz with their family, my idols Jason Magbanua, John Mateos Ong and Daniel Lei Sarmiento.  I was a bit shy to take out my camera to shoot pictures because of the presence of these photographers and videographers.

The top 5 W@W Suppliers of the Year

Also, W2B had a chance to meet some of the OTD suppliers which we haven’t booked yet.  She also liked  how Francis Day handled the event and we will try to book him if he is still available and if has a reasonable rate.

The party was fun and there were a lot of games that will entertain the crowd.  Francis Day was a great host, making the people laugh with his jokes and wit.  He even mistakenly called me DGM because of the way the O was written by W2B that looks like a G. 

Then came the raffle draw, where they were giving away honeymoon stuffs, iPods and Hotel accommodations.  We got ours, which was an iPod shuffle (Thanks to Veejay Floresca), in between the Oakwood and Shangrila accommodations. Tsk! Sayang! Hehehe! But 'twas alright because it was our second time to win a raffle for our wedding. The first time was when we won a wedding ring @ Goldenhills Jewelry.  Our relatives and closest friends, when they heard about it, teased us to make a bet to our Grand Lottery 6/55, which is currently @ 700++ million pesos.  I told them that I will wait for it to get to a billion and then I will make my bet hehehe.

W@W Suppliers

The event was finished by the awarding of the supplier of the year (Rejectkrew), picture taking of the W@Wies and picture taking of the suppliers.  After the event, we approached Ching and Gail and ask them to take a picture with us and we told them that we would mention them in our post here at our wedding site.  Thanks Ching and Gail for being a good sport.

We enjoyed our time @ the W@W Christmas Party and we would like to thank Sir John and Ma’am Benz for putting this kind of event.  Aside from the fun it brings, it helps a lot of soon-to-weds like us to mingle with people and share wedding preparations with them.  Kudos to W@W!
