JC & Allen’s Whovian Wonderland wedding

A little Alice in Wonderland, a smidge of Doctor Who, and two geeky kids in the Philippines tie the knot, geek-style. With a pink princess gown, little Alices and Ums running around, and some crafty projects, there was no way this wasn’t going to be fun. Not even a typhoon warning was stopping it. Oh, and wait until you hear about the family’s first dance starring an Xbox!
