officer.

The
wedding ceremony at 3 o'clock in the afternoon at Our Lady of Assumption Shrine,
Dauis Bohol will be solemnized by the couple's friends, Rev. Fr. Roland B. Cajegas
and Rev. Fr. John Legitimas.
DESPITE THE DISTANCE
Love will
find its way amidst the distance. For Allan and Estrella, it is the distance that
creates their love story.
The groom was introduced by his colleague (Joboy
Bucag) through the latter's sister Miriam Bucag-Cutin who is the bride's best
friend. Allan, persuasive to get in touch with Estrella, first called her in the
USA via Satellite on the 23rd of March 2008.
The bride wasn't at all interested
with the conversation since she was driving her car with Miriam on their way to
spend the Easter weekend in a tourist spot of Carmel-Monterey Coast. But the groom
was persistent to get in touch with her. Since then, Allan was her constant caller.

| | Apparently,
their love story developed more through calls and text messaging. It grew so beautifully
that they decided to meet last August 2008, barely two weeks of knowing each other
and spending time together with their families.
After being together for
a short span of time, Allan went back overseas while Estrella went back to the
US and continued to communicate each other.
Their love growing more intense
and eventually decided to settle down. Now, for their second meeting, they will
walk down the aisle. | SPONSORS
