She is a ramp model who has been her son’s apple of the eye for 12 years. He is a restaurateur and sportscaster who vowed to be family to her and her son. The couple got married last October 15.
Below is the onsite video created by Bob Nicolas and shown to all their wedding guests same day. 🙂
The ceremony and reception were held at Peninsula Manila. Seeing rows of crystal chairs being set up in one scene on the video was ‘magical’. The wedding gown is by Randy Ortiz, and the bride’s second look (reception gown) is by Rhett Eala.
R&B princess Kyla and PBA player Rich Alvarez have been engaged since early this year when she got her surprise marriage proposal as she celebrated her birthday in a hotel last January 5, 2011. The couple have been together for five years and are scheduled to be married later this year.
A little over a week, the couple had their prenup pictorial at a beach in Batangas. Charisse Tinio of Nice Print Photography emailed us a dozen of pictures of the couple to share with our readers. Here are just some of them…
The player for Talk ‘N Text Tropang Texters is the signer’s first and only boyfriend. As for her dream wedding, she related this in one interview:
“Gusto ko traditional, ‘yong naglalakad sa church. Medyo may pagka-Filipina ako. Minsan ka lang kasing ikasal, ‘di ba, kaya maglalakad na ko sa aisle….“

More than the power guest list which involved the biggest names in showbiz and politics, the focus of Bong & Lani’s silver wedding was family. Here’s the couple with all their entire brood posing for Lito Sy.
Bong & Lani first wed in a non-sectarian ceremony at the Forest Lawn Memorial in Glendale, California, in 1986. Lani then was just 18 and pregnant with their first child. They had their Catholic wedding in Revilla’s hometown in 1998 with Philippine Centennial as their theme and Cavite as backdrop.
The renewal of vows was held last May 28 at the Shrine of St. Therese of the Child Jesus and a grand feast followed at the Harbour Tent ng Sofitel Philippine Plaza.
The couple’s sons — Brian and Jolo — stood as best men and their eldest daughter, Inah, was her mom’s matron of honor. Playing fowergirl & ring bearer are their two grandchildren.
Below is the onsite video also by Lito Sy’s team. Watch as the bride candidly say as she delivers her vows, “Sana mahalin mo pa ako, lalo na ngayong lola na ako.” 🙂

Up until today, nothing much has been seen, by way of official photo or video releases, of the January 12 wedding of celebrity couple, Oyo Sotto + Kristine Hermosa. Even links to our post about the newlyweds’ prenup pictures and OBB (A Prelude to Oyo Sotto & Kristine Hermosa’s Wedding) were set to private upon the request of the couple. Thankfully, those links are finally up and active again for those who weren’t able to view them the first time. 🙂
Thankfully, Oyo + Tin just green-lighted the release of their onsite video for public viewing. In his blog, Bong Sare of Threelogy Video said the groom specifically requested for Howie Day’s “Collide” as music for the video (the exact same song Tin used for the bridal march). For her part, the bride requested soundbites not be included in the same-day edit.
Cheers to the newlyweds!
In September 2010, actress Roxanne Guinoo gave birth to a healthy baby daughter. Yesterday, January 23, she got married to Elton Yap, the father of her child. It was reported that Roxanne could have married last year if it were not for the wedding of Elton’s sister. According to Filipino superstitions, it is bad luck for siblings to marry on the same year (sukob).
Below is the picture posted by Lito Sy, the couple’s official wedding photographer, in his FB wall.
More wedding pictures posted here.
Highlights from the wedding (including snippets from Roxanne’s heartfelt wedding vow) were captured by Jason Magbanua in this onsite video.

Prior to their wedding, Oyo & Kristine had consistently been mum during interviews whenever asked by the media to give details about their wedding. It’s clear that the couple would like to keep their wedding as private as possible.
Well, it’s been two days since their January 12 lakeside wedding (also the groom’s birthday) at Club Balai Isabel in Talisay, Batangas, but nothing much has been seen aside from some blurry pictures tweeted by their celebrity friends. The primetime newscast in their respective home studios didn’t have any wedding picture to accompany their news item about the event. Even the couple’s prenup pictures taken in Subic late last year were only released to the public the day after the wedding. The couple’s on-the-day coordinator, Jody Liwanag of EventsExperts, has also been very quiet, revealing via FB stat that she indeed handled the wedding only after the fact.
We know a lot of people are curious to see the photographs and onsite video of this celebrity wedding, but we may all have to wait a little longer until the newlyweds give the greenlight to their suppliers.
In the meantime, see more of Oyo Boy + Tin-tin’s prenup pictures in Nelwin Uy’s blog.
We’re also sharing here the couple’s prenup video (it served as an OBB [opening billboard] for the couple’s onsite video) done by Threelogy.

So who else’s wedding made it in 2010’s best list? Aside from celebrity weddings, there’s a noticeable increase of nuptials held outside the Philippines in last year’s roaster. It’s a solid proof that — due to talent and value-for-money (and of course, the internet!) — the Filipino wedding supplier is one of the country’s growing export. Cheers to that! More importantly, completing our annual list are the beautiful weddings of ordinary couples (W@Wies or not) which made an extra-ordinary impact to their respective wedding supplier.
Without much ado, here’s the list of 2010’s Best Weddings!
After their much talked about prenup video has gone viral and the hullabaloo in our comments section debating if the clip is inappropriate (some even cried “porn!”) or not, the wedding of Victor & Maggie in Misibis Bay in Albay, Bicol last December 18, 2010 proceeded as planned inspite the hitches.
The groom couldn’t have described it any better…
“It spanned three days, and through a unique twist of divine faith, we got married twice in the same day. And with overflowing love and friendship and support, even the heavens cried, with torrential abundance. But it was perfect. It was unforgettable. It meant everything. It is the happiest days of our lives.” -Victor
The bride narrated a detailed account of what transpired on their big day in the article below which originally appeared in The Manila Bulletin. Read on…
Controversial couple Maggie Wilson and Victor Consunji’s December 18 wedding was nearly marred by hitches. A beach wedding ceremony held at Misibis Bay Raintree Resort in Albay, it was attended by about 200 guests. As the couple was about to exchange I do’s, they were told that the beach wedding was not possible unless they wed in a church first as ordered by the Catholic Church. Despite their surprise, the couple remained unfazed.
Fortunately, there was a church nearby the wedding venue so Maggie and Victor got wed there. “Gusto nu’ng priest ikasal muna kami sa church. Una muna ‘yung church bago ‘yung beach wedding. ‘Yun ‘yung parang bilin ng church kasi nga Catholic wedding siya. Usually, hindi pumapayag ang Catholic church na magpakasal sa beach. Gusto daw talaga nila sa loob mismo ng church,” Maggie shared on “Showbiz Central” on Dec. 26.
“Eh, hindi namin alam. Sinabi lang sa amin that day, nu’ng araw mismo ng kasal, noong araw na ‘yon. Sinabi sa amin na gusto nila sa church muna. So ganoon ang nangyari, kaya nagkaroon muna kami ng ceremony sa church with our family and closest firends. Konti lang kami, siguro 15 lang kami nandoon sa church,” the beauty queen-turned actress added.
“And then right after, nagbihis lang ako, nag-wedding dress and kinasal na naman ako sa beach,” Maggie recalled.
They were surprised that the officiating priest even knew of their controversial pre-nup video. “Ang pinaka-funny pa ‘yung priest na nagkasal sa amin, doon sa homily niya nabanggit niya ‘yung pre-nup video namin. So parang ginawa talaga niya ‘yung homework niya.”
The rain on Maggie’s parade did not stop there. Literally, the beach wedding was greeted by rains — a “torrential downpour” as Maggie described it. “Noong nag-start kami parang wala munang ulan. And then nag-start mag-rain noong mag-vows na kami. In fact noong nag-start na kaming mag-wedding vow biglang umulan nang sobrang lakas. Umulan siya and then sabi ng pari, ‘Now you may kiss the bride.'”
Although drenched by the rain, the guests remained seated all throughout the ceremony.“At ang pinakamaganda doon sa nangyari is lahat ng guests nag-stay. Walang umalis. Talagang lahat kami nabasa… as in basa ‘yung hair, basa lahat.”
The experience, Maggie recalls, “Para talaga siyang movie. It couldn’t have been written better. Parang it was such a beautiful wedding that even the heaven cried for us. Parang gano’n. That’s how I feel it. It is the happiest day of our lives. Siyempre gusto namin memorable and, of course, bongga!”

She got me at “ehem”.
Her name is Anielle Santos. Well, as it turns out, I’m not the only one who had an instant crush on her in the Coffee-Mate TVC. This particular comment in YouTube cracked me up!
by jaodeballs: ang ganda mo Anielle! hulog ka ng langit! wag ka nang ngumiti, maraming lalaki mamatay sa pagka inlab sayo. at dahil jan, bibili ako ng limpak2 na coffeemate (kahit di ako nagkakape) para lagi kitang maaalala.
LOL! Well, too bad jaodeballs. Anielle is married now. Not to the dude in the commercial, but to Rapha Banson. Here’s proof…
