Hi,

Ask ko lang mga sisses kung alam niyo if puwede kunin si Fr. Allen kahit sa ibang church ang wedding? I mean hindi sa Caleruega? Siya kasi ang gusto namin talaga ni h2b.

Thank You in advance sa magrereply.. :)

hi Sis.

Sa Chapel on the Hill yung wedding namin and i enquired the same thing.
Send ka lang ng email sa caleruega, magrereply naman sila sayo.
i'm just waiting for their confirmation, 2 months before the date ko pa raw malalaman if available is father allen. so, may pag-asa! ;)

Here's their email add: caleruega_philippines@yahoo.com

gusto ko rin sya kunin since daming positive feedback sa kanya. although i haven't seen him or heard him celebrate mass. at di ko rin naman gusto yung priest sa pinagsisimbahan namin. so sana pwede pa si fr. allen sa wedding namin.

for those who know fr. allen, why is he very popular among to-be-wed couples?

Thanks sis sige ganun na nga.. Kasi sis nakabooked na kami sa Caleruega sa May 8 din kaso nagbago kami ng church dahil ang parents eh nalalayuan sa CAle kaya ayun give up na kami sa church pero si Father Allen pa din like naming priest. Thanks again :)

Sis Angelzero, kasi yung homily nya ay talaga customized sa love story nyo kaya parang ang saya makinig ng homily nya.. :)

Hay sana makuha pa din namin sya as officiating priest. :)

Share ko sayo sis ang story of my BILs wedding last may 11 of this year. April 2012, we booked caleruega and requestd father allen to be the officiating priest-which was not confirmed until 2 months before the weddimg date. When caleruega emailed me that father allen will be our priest, they told me to send a copy of a brief autobiography of the bride and of pthe groom. Ako ang contact person coz I was their wedding planner slash coordiator since both of them, the b&g were working abroad. Then along with the personal background, father allen also asked me to send the cnuple's love story, 2 version dapat, he said, she said. Then a week before the wedding, nagschedule ng meeting si father allen with the couple, since ako nga coord, present ang beauty ko. Lol. There were atleast 8 couples yung andun din na ikakasal din under father allen. And what was the meeting all about? It was briefing, explanation, definition, seminar, and super enjoy na ceremony rehearsal! Nagrehearse talaga cla and father allen taught them, and me also on what to do from the seat designation to why and what is the purpose of each member of etourage upto what should the commentator do, yung dos and donts pati music background may suggestion sya because he told us that "you all spend so much money with this wedding especialy with your photographers and videog so we will make your wedding dramatically memorable and let your P/V capture all the happy memories that will happen and those happy memories will build your neverending love to each other. " and another one "let your guests remember how wonderful your wedding ceremony was, not how wonderful your wedding reception was, kasal niyo ang cinecelebrate dun, bonus nalang ang reception" kaya come wedding day, super thumbs up ang ceremony and all of our guests were saying nung nasa reception na and even weeks after the wedding na ang ganda ng kasal ni BIL ang galing nung pari! Then naaalala pa nila ang mga nangyari nung ceremony. Naku mahaba na, to be continued nalang, sorry mga sis! Nadala ako ng kwento. :-D

Hi mga sis! This is the continuation of my story... Now where am i? A, ok, the ceremony itself. On the procession, father allen told us to tell your entourage to walk not too fast, not too slow, just enough to keep with the music, and smile! and for the photog to capture them properly, sayang naman daw iginayak nila kung nakasimangot or nakatingala sila sa wedding album.. Then he also told the brides to wait for the qeue from the photog, videog and coordinator sa pag enter when the door opens kasi ito daw yung best shot ng photog and videog para sa wedding album and sa wedding vid ninyo, wag magmadali ang bride dahil hindi naman daw siya tatakbo at maghihinty daw talaga siya hanggang sa matapos ang procession, he said dinayo daw ng mga couple ang caleruega to be wed, so make it dramatically memorable. Okay, we move on to the ceremony itself, liturgical rights going to the homily, the best part... Father allen is a good host, the whole ceremony nacapture niya yung mga inaantok na hitsura ng ibang guests.. He explained what marriage is what are the roles of each of them for each other as husband and wives, and don't get me wrong ha, it sounded like a boring sermon but father allen has his way of talking lively and catching everyone's attention regardless of how boring the topic maybe... Not to mention sinisingitan din naman niya ng ice breakers. And may interaction din, lahat nagpaparticipate sa mga panaka nakang Q&As niya.. Then back to the couple, ni hindi namin napansin ang transition na akala namin nagkukwento lang siya, wethought he is giving another sermon by telling us a story of love, hanggang sa napansin namin yung love story na pala ng couple yung kinukwento niya, kasi he didnot use their names, sabi lang niya once there was a boy born in the province of batangas.. Blah blah blah... Magaling siyang magkwento, talo niya si ate charo.. tee hee!! When it ended he said and my dear brothers and sisters, that is the love story of our couple today, naku hindi pa siya tapos magsalita nagpalakpakan na mga guests nagulat sila lahat kasi nareveal yung love story,  yung typical reaction ng nagulat, ah yun palayon! Sila pala yon! -yun, ganun nanging reaction nung mga guests, at hindi matapos tapos ang applause. He also made the couple to memorize the wedding vows dahil ang gusto niya kapag sinasabi yun nakatingin talaga sila sa mga mata ng isat isa, becausethey are promising infront of God na. And inexplain din nia na, catholic ceremony dont have personal vows, it is personal message before the marriage vows.. That's what they allow. Yung personal message okay lang daw na may cue card or copy ka na babasahin, but yung vows gusto niya memorized.. And btw, father allen will also ask for a copy of your personal message sent to his email before your wedding..kaya alam niaang personal message niyo pero gusto niya secret niyo yun sa isatisa... Even sa pagyakap at the end, kapag sinabi na daw niya you may kissyour bride. Tnuruan niya yng couple na kiss then yakap then may konting sway sway daw, for videog purposes at magandang tingnan.. Patiyung pagturn ng couple from the altar to the guest pag inaannounce na niyang mr and mrs na cla tinuruan din niya yung bride. So siguro, with my story kahit pano, napicture niyo im your mind how father allen is in a weddingceremony kaya super popular siya... Hope this helps you mga sis, and praying that father allen will be the one to officiate your wedding ceremony.. Goodluck!

@sis FrenchAngel since i'm a real sucker for weddings (even if it's not mine), your kwento got me a bit teary-eyed. hahaha! lalo na siguro pag wedding ko. even if i want to compose myself, kung ganyan naman kagaling yung pari mag celebrate ng wedding rites i dunno how i'd react. i'll ask for a waterproof mascara talaga haha! i'm now REALLY looking forward to getting Fr. Allen. I want everything you said. I want all of that. Thanks for sharing sis! :D

Sis walang preferred amount si father allen, yung stipend sa knya will depend on you couple, kung how much gusto niyo ibigay, the sakristan will give you an envelope before the wedding starts, i mean sa coord malamang ibibgay, then bahala na kyo sa amount.

How nice naman.

Thanks sis FrenchAngel for sharing that very inspiring story. I got teary-eyed na ngayon pa lang. Dream wedding ko talaga ang Caleruega. We (H2B and his family) inquired na for a possible slot next year pero hindi pa kasi kami decided sa date. Iniisip namin kunin yung priest na kamag-anak namin pero since I read your story about Fr. Allen, interested na rin ako sa kanya.

Sana next year siya ang mag-officiate sa wedding namin.

^Sis, bilisan mo magdecide at magpabook. Last month I read somewhere ubos na ang weekend slot ng January 2015 ng Caleruega. Nung nagbook kami later part ng October 2012 for a May 2014, ubos na ang mga weekend slots. Di na namin nakuha yung original date na gusto namin. Pero if you are planning a weekday schedule, I think you need not to worry much.

^ :( Me time pa naman Sis. Pag naset mo na yung date/time and church, mas uusad na yan promise! :)

Naku baka ma OT tayo hehe! Kami din hoping na si Father Allen ang magofficiate kaya lang sabi di pa  sure kung nasa Caleruega pa din sya by 2014. Hoping na mas better na health nya para sa mga nangangarap na kagaya namin.

Hi mga sis, yes, father allen has health issues, he has kidney problem, sabi niya it's in their family daw pero it was triggered din coz mahilig siya sa salty and processed foods before..
