Many couples wish to personalize their weddings by honoring our culture. There are several ways to do so and the DTI Wedding Fair became that exact avenue where couples discovered how love and culture can be woven together creatively, expertly, and thoughtfully.
The three day fair officially opened with a ribbon cutting ceremony and a program hosted by Isabelle Daza. It was an immersive experience right from the beginning. A stunning fashion show kicked off the event with elegant dresses, bags, and shoes gracing the runway. VIPs, friends from the wedding industry, and the media sat front row to witness the show.
A series of talks by local creatives added to the enriching experience through all the expert knowledge and practical tips that were shared — from visual storytelling, music curation, choosing local textiles, and up to even incorporating poetry in key elements of your special day. Finally, the grand finale was another spectacular fashion showcase highlighting the MSMEs who participated in the fair. As a special surprise, officials from the DTI also walked the runway for designer Frederick Berches!
What made the DTI Wedding Fair a remarkable event was the sense of community and empowerment for the local MSMEs. The DTI Wedding Fair wasn’t just about the details and decorations, it was also a platform to connect local enterprises with a thriving market in the wedding industry, and to expand their reach by tapping engaged couples as customers. Additionally, the DTI Wedding Fair contributed significantly to promoting Philippine creative industries in alignment with DTI’s Tatak Pinoy and Malikhaing Pinoy initiatives. The three day-fair successfully wrapped up with sales made by the local MSMEs and veteran wedding exhibitors amounting to a grand total of Php113,000,000.00.
DTI Secretary Maria Cristina Roque said it beautifully herself, “You are not just creating beautiful weddings. You are building stronger communities.”
Take a look at some of the highlights from the DTI Wedding Fair as captured by Pearl Studio.
Kiefer Ravena may be used to high-stakes games, but nothing compares to walking down the aisle with the love of his life, Diana Mackey.
The couple recently tied the knot in a heartfelt ceremony at St. Michael the Archangel Parish in BGC, surrounded by loved ones who cheered them on with full hearts and misty eyes.
Diana, radiant in a stunning Francis Libiran gown with a dramatic lace veil, floated down an aisle framed with lush white florals while family and friends looked on, teary-eyed and beaming.
The celebration continued at Whitespace Manila where guests were welcomed into a dreamy setting that felt like stepping into a romantic fairytale.
Soft drapes, floating lights, and tables decked with lush florals set the mood, but it was the couple’s sweet glances and quiet joy that truly lit up the room. Every detail felt intentional—elegant but never over-the-top, stylish yet still incredibly personal.
Their special day was less about grand gestures and more about genuine love. And with a little one on the way, it’s clear that this new chapter is only just beginning for Mr. and Mrs. Ravena.

They promised each other forever under a sky full of roses—and yes, it was just as breathtaking as it sounds.
Content creator Zeinab Harake and former PBA star Bobby Ray Parks Jr. tied the knot in a wedding that felt straight out of a movie. Known for living life in full color—whether through Zeinab’s vlogs or Ray’s games—the two brought that same passion into their big day.
Zeinab wore a custom Michael Cinco gown that flowed like poetry, while Ray looked every bit the leading man in his brocade tux.
Both the ceremony and reception were wrapped in red, complete with rich blooms everywhere, soft candlelight casting a glow, and mirrored surfaces that reflected the drama and the love in equal measure. The setup was jaw-dropping, but never cold. It was luxurious, yes, but also warm and deeply personal.
And beyond the grand visuals, it was the quiet in-betweens that made the day unforgettable: Zeinab holding Ray’s hand tightly during the vows, the whispered reassurances, the soft laughter, and the emotional presence of their children, Lucas and Bia, who made the moment even more meaningful.
As night fell, fairy lights flickered, music filled the air, and the room was full of joy. Clearly, more than a wedding, it was also the start of a forever built on choosing each other, again and again, with full hearts.
