Filipino American flavor of Oakland. Everyone will have something to eat - dietary questions are in the RSVP questionnaire.
What's the guestbook?
Instead of a traditional guestbook, we're doing a polaroid exchange. Take two shots of yourself (or your crew). Write us a message on the back of one, drop it in the box. Keep the other. Three cameras and one staffer to help - no line, no fuss. Available all night, easiest during happy hour before it gets dark.
Truly, your presence is enough. We're also moving soon, so we're keeping things light on stuff.
That said, if you'd like to give something:
Venmo works great (Filipino custom: give to whichever one of us you like more — competition encouraged):
We love public radio. Consider a donation to:
Two unemployed weirdos in sweaters met on the internet and got tea. Then the pandemic hit, things got serious, and somewhere between Oakland, van trips, cats, and endless tangents — this became home.
We are introverted cats, bonded. Oakland is where we met, where we had our lake house, and where we adopted Greta. We do things our own way.
This celebration is no different. Glad you're here.
Made with love. Last updated: June 13, 2026. | Tap to direct the cats: Greta (spirit) & Nigel (gray).
