Yeng Constantino is no bridezilla, says all is set for her wedding next year
Unlike some future brides who are cramming and stressing over their upcoming wedding, Yeng Constantino is now just excitedly counting down the days.
Yeng and her fiancé Yan Asuncion will tie the knot in February 14, 2015 in Tagaytay City.
After Yan proposed to her last March, Yeng immediately worked on her wedding preparations, including the concept, logistics and her entourage.
Went to work on wedding a day after proposal
“Para akong langgam, maaga akong nag-prepare. Noong nag-propose po si Yan, the next day nagpuyat ako para maghanap ng pegs na gusto ko, kung ano ang itsura na gusto ko sa wedding,” she revealed.
“Sobrang relax ako na bride, wala po akong stress na katulad ng sinasabi ng iba. Hindi po ako talaga ako mahilig sa details na tao, pero nae-enjoy ko po talaga sa pagtingin-tingin ng mga kutingting para sa wedding,” she also told reporters in an interview at the press conference of ICON, the concert of Yeng, Rico Blanco and Gloc-9.
Yeng and Yan have also completed the list of people on their wedding entourage, which won’t have any celebrities.
No showbiz names in entourage
“Ang circle ko kasi talaga ay mga non-showbiz, mga friends ko pa before, noong high school ako,” she explained.
“Definitely, invited ang mga Kapamilya natin, mga kapatid ko po sa ‘ASAP’ and sa Star Magic,” she added.
“Sa entourage ko, kasama ko yung mga best friends ko, mga kabanda ko dati, at mga kaibigan ko from church.”
Post-wedding plans
The couple will have their honeymoon in Maldives right after their wedding, and revealed more post-wedding plans.
“Ang saya nga kasi talagang pangarap ko iyon, one week lang. Tapos didiretso kami sa States, segue lang, kasi may gusto kaming course, na one week lang. May gagawin lang kami for studies, two weeks lang,” she said.
Yeng and Yan plan to have a baby two years after their wedding.
A baby after her 10th anniversary
“Dahil eight years na ako sa industry this year, balak ko po sana ay sulitin up to 10 years bago ako magka-baby. I just wanna honor din my manager, si Erickson Raymundo,” she said.
It also gives the couple time to enjoy each other’s company before being taking on baby duties.
Yeng and Yan had a whirlwind romance, becoming engaged only eight months after they became a couple.
Time to become friends
“Okay po si Yan sa ganoon dahil hindi naman po kasi kami yung ideal couple na friends muna, tapos naging mag-boyfriend. Ginulat ako ni Yan, crush ko siya, tapos bigla na lang niya akong niligawan. Hindi na kami naging friends. Ngayon po kami nagiging magkaibigan dahil ako po ay in-love na in-love. Masaya naman po ako na nagiging super close kaming dalawa ngayon,” she said.
Yeng is excited for the ICON concert, which will be held in Smart Araneta Coliseum on November 21.
“Sobrang fan ako ni Gloc-9 and Rico. Parehong gusto ko silang magsulat, yung sincerity. Sobrang eye-opener yung mga songs ni Gloc-9. Kay Rico naman, nabibilib ako sa lawak ng songwriting at musicality niya,” she said.
