CROWD ACTIVITY: HAPPY MARRIAGE AND BEST WISHES

Why dont we start off by wishing MICHAEL and GLENDA best wishes and a happy marriage, Pag
sinabi kong Happy, you all should say Marriage. And when I say Best, you say wishes. Ready?
Happy (marriage), Best (wishes), Best (wishes), Best (wishes), Happy (marriage).
To Michael and Glenda the crowd has spoken. May your marriage be as happy and beautiful as
your wedding.

the people who literally saw the romance between MICHAEL and MARIA GLENDA blossom into a
serious relationship. May I call on (one set of Ninong and Ninang).
Thank you both for your wonderful messages.
TRADITION: CAKE SLICING
May I request Michael and Glenda to prepare for the cake slicing ceremony. The cake, which has
been a part of wedding celebrations since the Roman times, is a symbol of good luck and fertility. The
sharing of this food symbolizes the couples willingness to fulfill each others needs, creating a bond
so simple yet so strong.

TRADITION: WINE-TOASTING
