About CASA Veneracion
Casa is Spanish for house. CASA is also an acronym for Connie, Antonio, Sam and Alex. We are all surnamed Veneracion. We all love to take photos -- of anything that catches our fancy. It's a family obsession.
This is a journal of how we live, eat, learn, play and have fun. Work? Work is part of playing and having fun. Seriously.
The kitchen staff
In 2003, a time when I hadn't heard of the term "blog", I started a recipe website at cooking.houseonahill.net using a now defunct content management system that ran on ASP. Ok, never mind the geek talk, I'm sure you're not interested in that. The contents easily multiplied and, in 2004, I moved the food site to pinoycook.net. Always unhappy with the fact that the dot com versions of houseonahill and pinoycook weren't … (click here to read all »)

Hi i am sooo interested to see this church and a friend of mine saw some pictures too…she’d be getting married next year and is considering this church as one of her option…would you personally recommend this church for a wedding? If you happen to have any contact number of this church kindly email it to me, i’d appreciate it very much. Thanks. Hope to hear form you.
vickyg,
I am the parish priest of that old church in Boso-boso. We are really popularizing it for those who would like to get married and as a pilgrimage site also. The ambiance of an old church remains. It has a spacious parking space. It is located in a sitio and so it is not a busy spot. It is very accessible. We do not have a particular space for the reception but the patio can be utilized for reception designed in a fiesta sa nayon ambiance. You can come and visit. I am free on Mondays and Tuesdays.
you can call me through this number: 09289821703, or communicate through the e-mail.
It is not difficult to come here. You just take Aurora, cubao road and that whole stretch going to our place is Marcos Highway. It is straight drive. You don’t turn until you reach the street going to the church. It is about one hour and 30 minute drive from cubao if the traffic is not that heavy.
Hi Fr. Domingo,
I am getting married next year. We want it to be Feb 2 2010. I love the church and I wanted a quiet place for my wedding ceremony. I think this is just so perfect. My concern is, My reception will be in MMLDC. How many minutes/hour drive is the church from MMLDC? I don’t want my guest driving too far from one location to another. And my fiance is in Canada, is it okay if we attend seminars just 2 weeks before our wedding date?
Thanks,
Shiela
Oh, how nice, Fr. Domingo. Like an Intramuros (or San Sebastian) of Antipolo! Nice, nice. Boso-boso church would be a great backdrop for wedding pics. I hope the chandelier has been fixed though.
