Phalaenopsis ID Please - Orchid Board

I believe this to be either Phal "Wedding Promenade" or Phal "Ruey Lih Stripes". Any help would be appreciated. I have owned it for approximately 3 months. It had a spike but no blooms when I purchased it, and since has produced two branches with blooms.

Also since the picture is too large to host here, here is a link:

Hi, and welcome to OB. I'll go ahead and be the first to suggest that if you dont have an ID for the phal, you really wouldn't be able to narrow it down to much. With all the hybrids out there, its hard to ID one without the cross of name. However, if you had a tag prior to all this with one of these, you might be able to pick one of them. It looks like it's going to be a great bloom regardless.

Yea there was a tag but it merely said Phalaenopsis. I did some personal searching and thought I had it narrowed to either of those. Either way I'm really proud of it and it is beautiful. I have an unknown Dendrobium and Cattleya near it almost ready to bloom as well, and a newly planted Brassidium "Flying Away Miami" that will hopefully start a spike soon.

Hi Gorguts,
I took a look, but can't identify it for you...sorry about that. In any case, it sure does look like it will be beautiful when the buds are fully opened.
