May 9, 2020 / Posted by in COVID-19 Intimate Weddings, Real Weddings

Niel is an emergency doctor-in-training based in Sydney, Australia, while Jigs is a doctor in the Philippines. Jigs flew to Sydney in March for their engagement photoshoot, and to their surprise, both Philippines and Australia declared a lockdown on all international flights just a day after he arrived. They were set to get married in the Philippines last April but they both found themselves stuck in Sydney and was unable to catch their flight back to Manila in time for the wedding! So, they opted for a simple ceremony in Sydney instead, having only two guests!

“We decided we are not going to let the COVID-19 pandemic get in the way of our plans. We really wanted to push through with a church wedding. Due to restrictions in Sydney, we were only allowed 5 people in the ceremony, including us and our priest!” Niel, Bride
