Thank You Ninongs and Ninangs

Meet our Godmothers
Choosing your godparents for your wedding is one of the most exciting part of the preparations if you understand the role they will play in your married life.

In our renewal of vows, my husband and I initially planned to invite few people as our god parents because we didn't like to make our wedding look commercialized. However, after making several drafts, there are simply some people we cannot afford to slash on our list. And so we ended up having 16 pairs of ninongs and ninangs to represent our 16 years of being together as husband and wife.

Our Love Story: Ryan & Sherbie

16 years of being together through many ups and downs... 16 years of telenovela-like marriage. 16 years and counting... I just feel so blessed that we've reached this far... we've not just grown in size (haha!) but have grown in (mature) love... again... walang perfect pero may forever! - This was my FB post a day after my church wedding with my husband, Ryan. 
My husband and I have been civilly married for the past 16 years. We are blessed with four wonderful kids - Ray John, Sheryn, RS, and Jobie.   

We had our own reasons why it took that long before we walked down the aisle. Back then, I was the one with more apprehensions and some resistance.

Our married life is not a bed of roses. It took a lot of ups and downs. We had to weather a lot of storms that almost torn us apart. We've been through a lot of challenges both together, and on our own as individuals.

Our church wedding is both a religious ceremony and a symbolism of love, forgiveness, acceptance and hope.


New Year, New Beginning, New Blog!

Hello everyone! It's the 1st of January 2017 and I simply chose this date to launch my personal blog sherbieacosta.com. No, I am not new to the blogging and social media world. But, I have to admit I need to re-learn and update myself about a lot of things as I took a period of hibernation of approximately more than two long years!
