Bright Beginnings

Posted by Rachelle Que

Every wedding is a little girl’s dream come true. They dream of their glamorous gowns, long flowing hair, maids in waiting, gorgeous shoes, and most of all… little girls dream of their prince. Stephanie and Jonathan’s wedding is nothing short of magical. It has all the happily-ever-after elements, and so much more! Stephanie looked absolutely arresting in a flowy gown by Rajo Laurel, made only more spectacular by the smile she wore throughout the day. I was also smitten with the cocktail of colors, textures, and prints that her friends wore to the wedding–all of them perfectly complementing the bride and the joyous occasion! And what about those adorable little ones? Too dashing in their khaki suits and colored ties! I find it safe to assume that MangoRed did not have a difficult time capturing precious moments that were painted with love, bliss, and elegance.

It shows that every single detail in this wedding exudes light and happiness–much like the smiles shared between the happy couple themselves (and their guests)! Ahhh, there’s nothing we love more than a love and joy so palpable, it jumps off the photos and into the hearts of its beholder.

We’re right in the heart and heat of summer! Let’s welcome May and plunge into this affair brimming with everything beautiful!

Perfectly Smitten

Posted by Rachelle Que

One of the best things about weddings is that  we can look like a million bucks. Every groom and bride become the most ravishing in the room, exuding a fresh radiance of love. When we envision our big day, everything must be beautiful. Nothing less than this was true in the wedding day of Carlos and Kelly. Carlos no doubt looked debonaire in his sleek three-piece suit, and Kelly, in a Joey Samson was a vision to behold! A gorgeous couple plus Pat Dy (who we can always count on capturing breathtaking portraits)? That’s a pretty good formula. Simple and sweet is today’s treat.

Celebrity Wedding: Paolo Valenciano and Sam Godinez Part 2

Posted by Janna Simpao

We’re beyond thrilled that we get to feature more of this super cool wedding once again. A few weeks back, we got to show you the awesome on-site slideshow that MangoRed made for Pao and Sam. Today we get to see more stills that will rock your socks and make this Monday totally romantic with a dash of rad. Mixing Pao and Sam’s quirky engagement shots with the oh-so-dreamy wedding day photos, we’ve got a good balance of youthful playfulness and the ever-so-nostalgic young love.

Bob Nicolas also did wonders with the on-site video which you can check out below.

With weddings like these, we can’t help but love Mondays!

Celebrity Wedding Video: Paolo Valenciano and Sam Tabuena Godinez

Posted by Janna Simpao

We always hear speeches at weddings we attend. Some make us laugh and some make us cry, some even make us cover our faces with embarrassment because of hilarious experiences we’ve shared. At the end of the day, these words of honor and tribute add so much to the beauty and meaning of the whole wedding experience.

Paolo Valenciano has always been known for his fun character and love for singing. We were so curious how marrying the love of his life, Sam, will look like. Thanks to MangoRed‘s photo slide show, we get to live the amazing experience with them. We’re blown away by the speech sound bytes that they infused in the video, that I would say was nothing short of brilliant.

Words from the heart definitely make the most beautiful music you could ever hear.

Celebrity Wedding: Patrick Filart and Patty Laurel

Posted by Janna Simpao

I dunno about you, but I love December! There’s just something so whimsical about the month that makes me feel all fuzzy inside. And here at B&B, we’ve never been more happy in enjoying this “ber” month because of all the gorgeous wedding inspirations that have been coming our way.

Patrick Filart and Patty Laurel‘s wedding is probably one of the highlight features of this month. Our couple is not a stranger to Bride and Breakfast, and we’ve been itching to write about “The Pats” wedding for days now. Why? Because it’s just so darn beautiful. Chic, simple, romantic, understated, whimsical, effortless… and the list goes on and on. I am in love with all the soft hues Patty chose for her entourage and decor. And of course, the impeccable style details makes this wedding one of my favorites for 2012. Thanks to the wonderful talent of Jorem and Sheila Catilo Photography (the photos are soooooo amazing!) and the rest of the talented team of this affair, I am in wedding heaven today.

Another treat we have is the Mayad Studios wedding highlights video that will be first featured here in B&B–happy dance!

Fall in love folks!

Video: Zoren Legaspi and Carmina Villaroel’s Surprise Wedding

Posted by Ian Simpao

We featured Zoren Legaspi and Carmina Villaroel’s wedding a few days back. So today we thought of sharing the onsite video by Nice Print Photography because a surprise wedding is one of those once-in-a-blue-moon-type-of-things that deserve our attention, don’t you think?

Celebrity Wedding: Zoren Legaspi and Carmina Villaroel

Posted by Janna Simpao

There will probably only be a few people in this world who can say they got married the same day as the proposal. It might not be your typical tale, but one thing is for sure, this is a story of romance and a celebration of love. Both popular celebrities in the Philippines, Zoren and Carmina’s wedding was definitely the talk of the town because it totally caught everyone by surprise (yes, especially the bride)! Zoren and Carmina have been planning their wedding for months now. Little did the bride know that her groom (and kids) were making other plans. Carmina thought that she was just going to shoot a commercial for an ice cream brand and was surprised with the grandest celebration she had always hoped for. Now if that isn’t romantic, I dunno what is! I was so thrilled when Charisse of Nice Print Photography excitedly told us she was going to share photos of the beautiful affair. This is a great way to start the week!

I don’t have to say much about this wedding, since I am sure most of you will be diving into the pictures right away. Soft, romantic and daintily dusted with details, Marco and Lara’s wedding is probably making you swoon like crazy, right? A country rustic French style comes to mind as I stare at these amazing photos by MangoRed. Beautiful and blissful? Definitely.
