Our First Dance:http://vimeo.com/11309743

Janeth and I both went to South Gate High School. I was already a senior when she was a freshwoman, and I had seen her around school once in a while. Flashforward to late 2003 when she and I were now both attending Cal Poly Pomona. One day during school I was walking out on the student quad towards the cafeteria and I saw a co-worker friend from the greenhouse (Biotrek) where I worked. As I walked towards her I saw she was standing next to a very beautiful girl. I mean, from the moment I layed eyes on her she astonished me. It's one of those moments frozen in time, you never forget. Janeth was standing there kind of glancing over her left shoulder looking out over the student quad. 

I approached them and said Hello. My very first words ever to Janeth went something like, "Hey, did you go to South Gate High School?" Janeth, kind of gave me a half look and said "Yes" and did not say anything else. I then had a short conversation with my co-worker continued along my day after that. Now, its true that the first time I met Janeth she was very short with me, and to this day she says that she does not remember this initial encounter. She says that she was probably having a rough day and was also likely deep in thought about something. She apologizes to me all the time about not remembering and I forgive her :-)

Some time went by until I ever saw Janeth again. One day I am at work and see that the new student workers are getting a tour of the greenhouse. I look into the crowd and I see that Janeth is in the group. I immediately remembered her and I thought to myself, "She's coming to work here?, Alright!"

Now its around Spring of 2004 and I began to see Janeth around more. On a Special project-type day at the greenhouse when all the student workers had to attent, Janeth and I ended up in the same group that day. That is the day that Janeth remembers as our intial encounter. We ended up hitting it off that very day and every time we met after that we always had pretty good chemistry. When summer 2004 came around is when I began to make my moves and she couldn't resist :-), it was then that we started dating. 

After weeks of trying to get married at a Catholic Church and realizing how much of a burden it was becoming we both decided not to go the Catholic route because it was really taking the fun and excitement from planning our wedding. Ramon is not Catholic and the Church was just really making it hard for us!  It was then when we decided we would have both our Ceremony and Reception at the same location and try to find a venue that offered both! Our search began and little did we know we would fall in love with the Castaway in Burbank. It was everything we ever dreamed of a beautiful Gazebo overlooking the San Fernando Mountains and little did we know they would offer the perfect size reception room with the most beautiful hilltop view.

After weeks and weeks of looking and having trouble

 After months and months of looking I found my dream wedding dress. I am so exited It’s everything I wanted and dreamed of; I knew it was the one the moment I saw it!! As many of you girls know I had a hard time saying yes to a Wedding Dress. But I went to a bridal boutique (Village Bridal) and found the most beautiful Mori Lee dress : ) and I didn’t even hesitate to buy it : ) when I tried it on! I can’t wait to wear it I keep having dreams about it. I am just so exited : ) It's simple chic and makes me feel like a princess. (Excuse my ugly hair and makeup)

Wedding Dress Update:

I am not sure how to tell without being embarrassed but my wedding dress has changed. Unfortunately my original wedding dress did not fit me it was horribleL I was devastated after they told me they wouldn’t be able to take it out. I felt like I was living the worse nightmare; but I feel that everything happens for a reason. I found a more beautiful and elaborate dress and the store took the original dress in exchange and I had a pay a difference. I didn’t want to be stress about losing weight with the wedding so close. I already had a bad feeling because I noticed a weight gain after in the past few months. I've been under so much stress with the wedding the new house so much going on. I just wanted to share this private story with my PW friends because I wanted you to give me your opinion about the new dress

I wanted to give my girls the option of selecting their own bridesmaid dress as long as they were all the same color and material and knee length. My bridesmaids all have different styles and we decided that we would have Denise my Maid of Honor and My little Sister in Fuchsia Pink See Dress No. 1 and all the other girls in Purple See Dress No. 2. Below are all of the styles the girls selected. The dresses will be in Fuchsia Pink (Dress No. 1) and Purple (Dress No. 2) but they will all be wearing a different style of dress. Here are all of the 5 options :)

Dress No. 1 (Fuchsia Pink)            Dress No. 2 (Purple)
