The Wedding Website of Samantha-Allison Hibionada and Aldrich G. Mallari

Zamboanga City, often referred to as the "City of Flowers," is a vibrant and unique gem in the southern Philippines. Nestled along the scenic coast of Mindanao, it offers a beautiful mix of natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and warm, welcoming people. The famous "Chavacano" language, a Spanish-based Creole, reflects this fusion and is widely spoken by its residents. Our wedding will take place in our beloved hometown of Zamboanga City, Philippines, where we first met and our love story starts. For guests travelling from abroad or within the Philippines to join us, we warmly welcome you to Zamboanga and thank you for choosing to celebrate with us ♡ Listed below are recommendations on hotels and essential travel information:
