Dear Family and Friends,

We are so happy to celebrate our wedding day with all of you. Thank you for blessing us with your presence and being in our lives as we have moved through 5 years of this wonderful relationship. For our honeymoon, we plan to go back to the Philippines in November because it is a very important place to both of us.

Claudia was born and raised in Manila and then moved to the U.S. after graduating High School in 1998, while her Mom stayed in Quezon City to take care of her Lola. She always enjoys going back home and waking up in the house that her Lola built and kept in the family.

Cabug was born in the U.S. and first went back to the Philippines in 1998 with his Grandma Tubig. He was able to meet all his cousins and family members from Pampanga for the first time and has returned back to visit them throughout the years.

In November we plan to spend time with our families together, volunteer for grass roots organizations and taking some trips to different parts of the Philippines that we have always wanted to travel to. We will go to the Kalinga province to visit the last traditional tribal tattooist, go to Palawan to see the underwater river caves, and Boracay to relax on white sand beaches and go snorkeling in the ocean.

Thank you for helping us travel and have these experiences together. We will truly value the memories as we begin this new chapter in our lives.

with much love and appreciation,

Claudia and Cabug
