“Before (or after) I do” was originally a one whole day pre-marital workshop designed to give soon to be weds the nuts & bolts of marriage. 1st ran March of 2007, the project was initiated and organized by John Mateos Ong and Monique Ong (then Lopez) and has continuously run twice a year during their birthday weeks sincee then. Currently BAID is now on It’s 18th run.

Now the program has been tweaked to become beneficial not only to those who are getting married but also to those who already made their vows years back but either never took this or need a refresher.

This year, for the first time, we are giving the workshop with an add on talk the next day, so its going to be a 2 day seminar with only the 1st day required to get a certificate. Topics & speakers on the 1st day at Blue Leaf Filipinas include:

– “Play the part right: Husband & Wife” by Boyet & Jet Versoza of Josiah’s Catering.

– “Money Talk: For better or for worse” by Alain & Mye Siscar of Matus Jewellery
– “Speak my language” by John & Monique Ong of Imagine Nation Photography & Wang Videography.

The next day, the seminar moves to PICC as part of the Wedding Congress from 1 to 5pm.
