Butterfly Release
A butterfly release is common now in funerals, weddings, parties or just any occasion. I caught this butterfly flitting from plant to plant over at the Loyola Memorial Park in Marikina City.
Since the early centuries, the butterfly has symbolized renewed life. The caterpillar signifies life here on earth; the cocoon, death; and the butterfly, the emergence of the dead into a new, beautiful and freer existence.
Frequently, the butterfly is seen with the word “Nika,” which means victory. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross movingly tells of seeing butterflies drawn all over the walls of the children’s dormitories in the World War II concentration camps. Since Elisabeth believes in the innate intuitiveness of children, she concludes that these children knew their fate and were leaving us a message.
The butterfly supplier I have tried is from Acclaim Butterfly which I used for my daughter’s debut party.

These are Maddela Flowers. They have a Fossilized and dried flower making in Quirino Province. Making fossilized flowers using the leaves of acacia trees, guavas, some grasses, and water lily is a popular, dollar-earning industry in the province.
A Rose laden Table
It must cost an arm and a leg to have a rose laden dinner table. This was a sample table from Hizon Food Caterers. They couldn’t give me an idea how much a table like this cost. One has to determine the number of guest before they can give a quotation. I’d rather have pink roses than red roses for a theme party. Red is just too bold a color.
