Our Trip to Hale Manna Coastal Gardens

Our 40th entry in this blog is our 3rd visit to Hale Manna Beach Resort and Coastal Gardens in Moalboal Cebu. And finally, we are here for the much awaited event, Tita Karen’s wedding with Tito Doulo. Yeee!
This time, Papa Dave is with us, and this is his first time to visit the place. We were the first ones to arrive and we immediately headed to our room upstairs. The room is big and spacious, with 3 beds (2 double beds and 1 single bed, plus an extra foam as floor bed).Β  The restroom is also quite spacious and clean πŸ™‚ We have the sala all to ourselves for now and Sai is busy roaming around the area.

After our 30-minute rest in our room, we headed to the beach to look for sea stuffs.Β  The weather was nice, not hot and windy. The beach was also very welcoming since it was low tide so we did see lots of starfishes and colorful corals.

We had a rehearsal that afternoon, and then dinner was served for the wedding guests to those who went early to the resort.Β  Present are the immediate family of the bride, that’s us, and also the family of the groom, as well as close friends and relatives.Β  Food is super yummy! πŸ™‚

Wedding preps started as early as 9AM. I was really really busy doing some Matron of Honor duties, getting this and that, calling people and making sure everyone is where they should be. Here are some mix photos of the wedding preparations, and the banquet.
