Tina Rose and Nicah was our first bride and groom for 2007. With Ilonggo roots but are now based in California. They were among the overseas couples who chooses to exchange vows in the Philippines. The bride opted for a Filipiniana wedding gown .
I created a removable terno sleeve top which eventually converts to a tube or strapless gown. It was one of the more interesting gowns I'ved created for a bride.
Nicah opted for a mandarin collared pina sinuksok barong with black buttons to match his black trousers.
The rest of the female entourage looked elegant in their gowns in coral pink and champagne. It was always nice working side by side with Ghie Javelosa of Studio A for both photography and videography. Kaffee's salon at Hotel Intercontinental owned by Stephanie Chung-Chua did the bride's hair and make-up. Patrick Chua, the bride's uncle took charge of the wedding arrangements.
Both Tina and Nicah's moms were awesome being so nice and friendly. I felt so humbled as to how they appreciated my works and their respective gowns. From Hotel Philippine Plaza, we proceeded to the Central United Methodist Church along T. M. Kalwa in Ermita, Manila still to assist the bride for her wedding march. Reception followed at Barbara's in Intramuros
