Wally + Stephanie | Cebu Wedding

The Archbishop Palace is one of the most intimate venues in Cebu City to hold a wedding ceremony at. For some odd but cute reason, Stephanie wanted to get married there. Now, knowing their expected number of guests, we couldn’t help but ask her how they were going to fit everyone in there during the ceremony. She told us that they asked most of their guests to just skip the ceremony and go directly to the reception.

Deep down, we knew their friends wouldn’t listen to them about that because knowing the kind of people Wally and Stephanie are, these friends weren’t about to miss their long-awaited official union in church. And show up in droves they did. The way the tiny ceremony venue looked with the people outside in their elegant, dashing and debonaire selves, it was as if celebrities were there. When it was time to kiss the bride, the place was just drowned in thunderous applause and cheers from the crowd that you could tell Wally and Stephanie were loved that much by everyone.

Everything went quite well that day, save for the mishap with Wally’s Japanese tie which stressed Wally quite much that morning having to go to SM to do some last-minute shopping and outfit changes. Did we mention that the bridal car was a Hummer? It didn’t get that much attention though *wink* *wink* haha. Also, it was our first coverage of a wedding reception at the brand spankin’ new Oakridge Pavilion. The place looked radiant and luxurious.

Stephanie told us that she’s going to become a full-fledged wedding coordinator after her own wedding. Knowing the kind of people-person she is and how enthusiastic she was coordinating her own wedding, we don’t doubt that that’s going to happen really really soon. Congrats Steph and Wally… and Wade, too!

Dexter + Beverly | Iloilo and Boracay Engagement Session

As previously mentioned (here), not only were we ecstatic to have met Dexter and Beverly but you could almost say that it was sweet serendipity at work. For weeks now we’ve had the wonderful opportunity of traveling to a lot of places around the world the country and we are endlessly grateful to have been graced with a bunch of warm and good-hearted clients.  We owe a huge part of it to this wonderful couple for setting off a good amount of out-of-town bookings for us when they became the first ones to take us outside of Cebu and on to Boracay and Iloilo (Dexter’s hometown) earlier this year for their engagement (prenup) session.

Boracay, commercial as it may have become as of late, has still got to be one of the more romantic destinations in the country.  There’s something about its white powdery sands, the clear turquoise water, and the perfect view of its orange sunset that makes it irresistibly charming.  All of these characteristics made for the perfect setting for the concept we had in mind for this e-session.

Concept + Location + Dexter + Beverly + Rock Paper Scissors = One HAPPY engagement session!

Do watch this director’s cut edition of Dex+Bevs’ photoclip before going through the rest of the pictures.  Allow the entire video to load/buffer completely before playing.  And oh, plug in those earphones or get your loud speakers ready and have the volume turned UP.  We’ve picked an awesome soundtrack for this one that may create magic. Enjoy!
