Our Love Story
Their story began with an unexpected work-related conversation that led to a simple introduction. While helping the bride’s colleague with a legal matter, the groom was playfully introduced to the bride. What started as a genuine and simple act of kindness to help a friend soon became the beginning of a beautiful love story guided by God's perfect timing.
Their first meeting was a casual gathering, followed by the groom's patient and persistent pursuit. Despite several declined invitations, he remained sincere until she finally agreed to accompany him to the Candelaria Mass at the Parish of the Holy Sacrifice in UP Diliman on February 2—their first meaningful date.
A few months later, the groom formally courted the bride, and after months of love, patience, and unwavering effort, the bride gave her sweetest "yes" on September 30, 2023, marking the start of their journey as a couple.
As their relationship deepened, the groom sought the blessing of the bride's late parents during a heartfelt visit to Bacolod before asking for her hand in marriage.
Finally, on December 22, 2025, at the serene Transfiguration Chapel in Caleruega—one of the bride’s favorite places— the groom proposed in the presence of his family, and the bride joyfully said "yes" once again.
On January 21, 2027, they begin a new chapter as husband and wife— a celebration of a love story written in God's perfect timing built on faith, patience, sincerity, and fulfilled promises sustained by His abundant blessings and grace.
