Bing + Trisha | San Agustin Lubao and Lakeshore Pampanga Wedding

We can still remember the first time we met Bing and Trisha back in October of 2010. It was at Bizu in Greenbelt. You know how first impressions usually make or break you? Well that didn’t apply to these two. They may be easily pegged as upper-class stiff types but they are actually two of the nicest couples we’ve had so far in our line of work. They have a natural aura of class about them both. They don’t even have to try in the least bit.

Now, to say that these two are so much in love with each other is an understatement. They first met at a hospital some years back. It was a doctor-patient relationship that bloomed onto a full-on romance. Eventually, they walked down the aisle and promised a lifetime of commitment to one another on January 14th of this year. Lucky for us, we were there to share in the momentous occasion while doing our jobs.

The reception was especially memorable because of the speeches. Some funny ones, and a lot of emotional ones. Let’s just say that the people around these two, especially their families, do know how blessed they are to have come so far from what they have been through in life.

Bing may be the doctor but you could honestly say that these two were both meant for each other in that, in a way, life got a whole lot better after the other came along. And who better to spend the rest of your life with than the person who saved yours, right?

RR + Jackie | Madre de Dios Tagaytay Highlands Destination Wedding

How excited were we when Jackie confirmed to us earlier this year that they’ve picked us to be their official photographer for the AL+AR wedding in Tagaytay? We were ecstatic!!! Our very first Tagaytay wedding. Back then, October couldn’t have come any sooner. And then it did.

We know how hard RR and Jackie worked to make their Tagaytay wedding as close to perfect as possible. From picking out the venues, doing the decorations, and right down to designing their own invitations. The invitation card deserves special mention because not only was it the couple’s design, but it was so unique and fun. You’ll see it in the photoclip. It transforms into a box! Needless to say, we were impressed.

Tagaytay really has a magical charm. We’d even go as far as saying that by having your destination wedding here, you are pretty much already halfway guaranteed of a romantic atmosphere for THE day.

Big thank you to RR and Jackie/Kilo for having faith in our abilities and for taking really good care of us during our stint in Tagaytay. Also, big shoutout to Emex and Janet for driving us around and being the entertainment showcase haha!

Brian + Jhoe | Vintage Wedding

Brace yourselves for what has unsurprisingly become our most photo-flooded blog post so far. This is what happens when artists get married. Most of the time, they put A LOT of attention on the little details of their wedding day. Such can be said with fellow photographers Josephine Sicad and Brian Minerva’s church union last July 28th. A vintage-themed wedding they wanted, a vintage-themed wedding they got!

In collaboration with wedding specialist Tisha Mae Cue, the little details that Jhoe pictured in her head for her special day majestically came to vivid life in all its rustic glory. The reception venue, Vista Mar Beach Resort and Country Club, was transformed from a typical beach clubhouse to a whimsical vintage wonderland! If creativity had a face, we’d find your faces next to it in the dictionary. Great job you guys!

Of course, details only contribute so much to making a wedding day as special as possible. Brian and Josephine didn’t have any problems in creating a positive atmosphere that day. With their giddy personalities in addition to a fun bunch of close friends and family members, their celebration was the farthest from dull as possible. A few tears here and there, emotions on high, laughter in great supply throughout that day, one could almost certainly assure that these two wouldn’t mind renewing their vows every year if only to experience it all all over again. Mother nature even wanted it to rain that day. But she was kind enough to hold it off up until the reception came to an end. This was one dream wedding that could generate talk for many more years to come.

Ian + Nina | Chateau de Busay Cebu Civil Wedding

The nice thing about civil weddings is that: it’s simple, no fuss, very straightforward.  Ian and Nina’s civil wedding was held at the beautiful garden of Chateau de Busay overlooking metropolitan Cebu.

Ian and Nina were all smiles (big smiles) all throughout the day. We guess they’re just very excited that they’ll be finally tying-the-knot after a 2-year long distance relationship.  We’re also glad that the heavens answered their prayers to not rain on their big day.  The union was very quick and was capped by releasing dozens of white and blue balloons during sunset.
