All eyes were on the lithe and lovely Airish as she walked down the aisle wearing a dreamy creation of Dexter Alazas. She gracefully made her way to her waiting groom to the meaningful tune of Ikaw: Ikaw ang bigay ng Maykapal, tugon sa aking dasal...” Groom Dino wore a beautifully embroidered barong Pilipino.

Royal blue was the wedding color and the beaming Moms Naida and Sidra as well as the ninangs looked elegant in their stylish gowns. The Dads, Ben and Gilbert, and the ninongs were all in barong Pilipino.

A dinner reception followed at the Capiz Ballroom of Cebu Country Club, that night transformed into a winter wonderland with white flowers, white lights and decorative twigs painted white. A ballet presentation ushered in the evening’s festivities.

Most applauded number was the romantic song dedicated to the newlyweds by the one and only Jose Mari Chan who was one of the ninongs.

The wedding of Dino and Airish was a glorious celebration of love!
