“Hi Ella!
Lucas and I just had our big day yesterday. And oooooh my goodness, it was beautiful!
The dress was a showstopper. The crowd had a shock when I walked into the church. I received so many compliments! People were saying I looked like a princess, which is exactly what we were aiming for.
Thank you so much for being a huge part of our very special day. Looking at these photos, I can see Lucas and I showing our future kids and them being proud of their Filipino heritage. Again, thank you so much for helping me bring my vision to life! Hope we can work together again one day.
With love,
Psalm
