A Picturesque Civil Wedding Against the Tacloban Sunset

Today’s wedding feature is a proof that micro-weddings are definitely Pinterest-worthy! Brian and Nika were one of the couples who had to downsize and alter their wedding plans in light of the pandemic. Instead of their original plan to do a church wedding, they opted to push through with a civil union ceremony in a picturesque garden venue in Tacloban, with the sea and sunset as their backdrop. Since they downsized, they literally had only one beautifully-set table at their reception reserved for their nearest and dearest. We can’t help but swoon over the floral arrangement, naked cake, and the use of Bilao, a traditional Filipino flat round-shaped rice winnower, as a standout element in their table setting. Soon-to-weds, scroll down the gorgeous shots of Rommel Cabrera below because this micro-wedding is definitely a peg.

This Intimate Wedding is a Celebration of All Things Filipino!

Jon and Macy honored our rich Filipino culture on their wedding day by perfectly matching their Filipiniana outfits to the grandeur of San Agustin Church in Intramuros. But there’s a more Filipino element in their wedding that stood out. From their original 200 guest list, their wedding pushed through with only the couple, their parents, one set of entourage, and one set of principal sponsors to meet San Agustin Church’s requirement of a maximum of 10 people in attendance. This shows how Filipinos are flexible and adaptable! Jon and Macy’s wedding is a testimony of what the world can always count on us as Filipinos: resilience amidst difficulties, appreciation of traditions, respect for family, and faith in God.
