Thanks. Yes, Perry, that's a beautiful handmade barong tagalog that my mother-in-law had crafted for the groom in the Philipines. It's an incredible garment (which I still have if you need it for your wedding). I believe it was 100F that day, a tuxedo would have been deadly.
The picture really shows that it's real quality, and not just any old thing you can pick up in any SM department store.
I appreciate the offer, but that's yours, and it probably wouldn't fit my girth anyway. :) For our civil wedding here, I'll just wear a suit and carnation. For our church wedding "over there," sometime next year, it'll definitely be in native dress.
Awesome! Congratulations to you both!
Wait a minute, is that a barong you were wearing?
