Bride Olga shares, “I have always wanted my wedding to be Filipiniana-themed ever since high school. Back then, I grew fond of wearing ternos but had no place to wear them except for ‘Buwan ng Wika.’ I even owned a custom-made piece that I only get to wear once a year. It was cream and purple with an embellished pañuelo. I didn’t have a boyfriend back then, but I was fixated on the fact that I WILL have a Modern Filipiniana Wedding in the future!”
I’m sure many of you can relate with Olga about having a dream dress way before meeting your soon-to-be. And just how magical it is to have this dream fulfilled over a decade later. Olga looks absolutely radiant in her terno gown with the trademark butterfly sleeves and lace. I think it was worth the wait to wear such a special gown on a truly important day! A dream come true, and a memory that will last forever. Take a look at how Carlo and Olga’s beautiful day turned out as captured by ProudRad.
