Our Story
We met as college classmates at the University of the Philippines Cebu; two people sharing the same halls but not yet knowing how deeply our lives would intertwine. What brought us closer was a shared love for music—One Ok Rock, to be exact—which led to late conversations, a team-up for a writing project, and eventually a memory we’ll always hold close: the band’s first-ever concert in 2016. We weren’t seated together that night, but we found each other after, a moment made more meaningful by the quiet intention behind it.
From there, our story unfolded naturally with love, growth, and countless adventures that shaped us both individually and together. Through the years, we learned how to choose each other every day, in the big moments and the quiet ones.
And at last, just two days after our tenth year together, we’ll be exchanging our vows in the very same place where we’ve promised ourselves to each other.
It would mean so much to have you with us as we celebrate and step into this next chapter of our lives.
You are invited!
With hearts full of gratitude and joy, we invite you to be part of a day that means so much to us.
As we prepare to celebrate our union, we’ve thoughtfully put together a few details to help create the kind of atmosphere we’ve always dreamed of—one that feels intimate, harmonious, and truly reflective of our story.
The following sections gently outline some guidelines for our celebration. We share these with the hope that you can help us bring this vision to life, and we kindly ask that they be followed as much as possible.

Motif & Guest Attire
For our celebration, we’ve chosen a Spring Enchanted Garden theme with a garden formal feel.
We invite our guests to dress in breathable fabrics and solid colors inspired by our palette.
Ladies are encouraged to wear ankle-length to floor-length dresses in soft hues and breathable fabrics, keeping looks simple and comfortable.
Gentlemen are encouraged to wear vests. They may also wear coats, though it is not required. Garden-formal looks in pastel or bright tones, paired with dress pants or chinos, are welcome. Minimal white is fine as a base layer.
To keep the look cohesive, we kindly ask for no prints or patterns, no black or white outfits, and no shorts or denim.
We can’t wait to celebrate surrounded by love, spring colors, and the people who helped our relationship blossom in one way or another.
