W@W coin for the arrhae?

I was scanning the thumbnails of Benz’s tagged photos in Facebook when a particular picture got me curious, that I just had to click for a larger view.   Here’s what I saw…

This shot was taken Pat Dy from Choy Nuñez & Jill Sabalo’s wedding.  Jill is a W@Wie and admits that she loves W@W, hence the inclusion of the W@W commemorative coin as part of the wedding arrhae.

In the blog entry of the couple’s wedding planner (Ernest Pascual of Events! Events!), this photo caption appears:

The wooden arrhae box with gold and silver metal plate carving matched the theme. The arrhae was composed of six coins from 1980 - the year when Choy was born, plus six coins from 1982 - the year when Jill was born, and one coin from W@W.

What a great idea!

I agree with Benz that it’s indeed heartwarming to see a W@Wie like the coin so much to even include it in the arrhae for her own wedding.  We had the W@W commemorative coin minted as a souvenir for our site’s 10th anniversary celebration last year.

Below is a more detailed look of the W@W coin in this short clip done for us by Phoeben Teocson.
