An Island Destination Wedding That Didn’t Break The Bank

With just six months to plan everything from miles away in the U.S., Than and Eloi put together a D.I.Y. destination wedding on the island of Palawan that we’re sure their 40 guests will be talking about for years to come. Sticking to a simple and classic green and white color scheme, the couple maximized the natural beauty of Princesa Garden Island Resort and Spa for both their ceremony and reception. Guests were asked to come in comfortable and relaxed white outfits (like shorts!), which made loads of sense as they even went for a dip in the pool on the morning of the wedding. Everything was as well-planned as it was relaxed, including the fun, D.I.Y. wedding favors that the couple put together: personalized Starbucks cups filled with sample-sized perfumes, socks for the men, makeup for the ladies, breath freshener, and a copy of The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman. Here’s the best part: This heartfelt and simple wedding cost the couple less than 200,000 Pesos! You have to see how their day unfolded with these shots by Project M Photography!
