Wedding Party

Dyan Mae V. Cerillo

Bride

Here’s the bride- think of her like a human candy bar (sweet, satisfying, and impossible not to love), with a heart as clear as glass and a habit of putting others first. She’s Dave’s ultimate partner in crime, all-in on their forever thing, and even though she’s the youngest of her siblings, she’s got this chill wisdom and grace that makes you forget she’s the youngest.

David Angelo A. Cruz

Groom

Let’s meet Dave-officially David Angelo A. Cruz, but everyone calls him ‘Dave Mapagmahal’ because his heart’s that big. Life threw him some serious curveballs (losing his mom young, brain surgery, you name it), but he’s still the bravest, most loving guy around. He swore to his soon-to-be wife he’ll stick by her side no matter what until they’re old and gray.

Mrs. Gloria V. Cerillo

Mother of the Bride

She’s the kind of mom you’d want to have: all heart and grit. She’s become like family to the groom, especially after he lost his mom too young, and her warmth’s been a lifeline. She’s seen her fair share of weddings, but on the wedding day, she’s walking her baby girl down the aisle for the first time, and let’s just say tissues are not optional. As someone who’s watched this couple’s love story unfold, Gloria’s over the moon to be part of such a huge moment. You can bet she’s soaking up every second.

Mr. Christopher Cerillo

Father of the Bride

A retired civil engineer and devoted father of four. Known for his discipline and unique character, he was always the one to spoil the bride as a child. On the wedding day, as he walks his daughter down the aisle for the first time, Christopher is filled with pride and excitement, ready to share in this deeply meaningful moment- a tradition that beautifully symbolizes a father's love, support, and blessing as his daughter begins a new chapter in her life.

Mrs. Angelina D. Cruz

Mother of the Groom

Though Mrs. Angelina Cruz left this world when her son was just 13, her memory remains a guiding light in his life. She was known as a selfless mother and a dedicated, disciplinarian teacher -qualities that shaped the man her son has become. While she may not be here in person, there is no doubt that she is watching over this union with pride and love. She will always remain forever in the hearts of the couple, a cherished part of their story and a silent witness to their happiness.

Mr. Gerardo O. Cruz

Father of the Groom

The father of the groom is a constant source of love and care for his son, never failing to support him through every stage of life. Though not always expressive, his selfless devotion shines through in the quiet ways he shows his affection, both to David and to Dyan. He has welcomed Dyan into the family with open arms, creating cherished memories with the couple. His steady presence and gentle strength are a true blessing, and the couple is grateful to have him by their side as they begin this new chapter together.

Mrs. Ivy Conje

Principal Sponsor

Tita Ivy regards the groom as her own son, having shared a close friendship with her son for many years. The couple deeply appreciates the thoughtful gestures and concerns by Tita Ivy and Dasher during the groom’s hospitalization, as well as their unwavering emotional support throughout his recovery process. Their presence at this union is cherished as both a blessing and a testament to the bonds that sustain the couple.

Mr. Rafaelito Solangon

Principal Sponsor

He’s one of the few people the couple truly respects-not just for his professional achievements, but also for the wisdom and honesty he always shows. They’re really thankful for all the advice he’s given them along the way, from dating to planning the engagement proposal, and now as part of their much-anticipated intimate wedding celebration.

Mrs. Belen Tomalon

Principal Sponsor

Although the couple has only known Ninang Belen for a short time, she has shown them great kindness from the very first day they met. Her warm and friendly nature touches everyone around her, and this is something the couple truly admires. They are grateful for her presence as she witnesses and celebrates their union.

Mr. Norman Bungubung

Principal Sponsor

The couple holds him in the highest regard, honoring both his personal accomplishments and his exemplary role as a devoted father and caring husband. They will deeply appreciate his presence at their wedding and feel truly blessed to have him stand as part of their cherished wedding sponsors.

Mrs. Franz Villareal

Principal Sponsor

Though the bride’s aunt -ninang Franz, is someone the couple does not see often, every time they do, they truly enjoy her company and the warmth she brings. The couple sincerely appreciates her kindness and is deeply honored that she has agreed to be their principal sponsor, sharing in this important milestone of their lives.

Mr. Angel Villareal

Principal Sponsor

The bride’s Tito isn’t just her favorite person. He’s also the one who fills her heart and stomach with his amazing home-cooked meals. His cooking has always been a special comfort she looks forward to and truly cherishes. As they begin their journey as husband and wife, the couple feels truly blessed to have their beloved Tito-Ninong by their side, sharing in this beautiful moment and witnessing the start of their forever.

Mrs. Florina Guevara

Principal Sponsor

Mrs. Guevara, Dyan’s former work mentor, is cherished by the couple as a second mother. She has been a constant source of guidance and support, witnessing the beautiful journey of their love, especially during the early days of courting. They have always admired and respected her deeply. The couple is grateful that she will continue to guide them as they begin this new chapter together.

Ms. Lily Anne Cerillo

Maid of Honor

The bride’s eldest sister is truly a soft-hearted soul- so generous that she gives without hesitation, even if it means having little left for herself. Always ready to help, she was the bride’s first choice for maid of honor because this role fits her perfectly. Now, as her youngest sister prepares to walk down the aisle, we’re all set to witness a touching, tear-filled moment straight out of a drama- non-stop tears from the loving big sister, just like in the best teleseryes.

Mr. Jeffreyson Patiag

Best Man

Jeff might be the groom’s polar opposite in personality- spontaneous joker meets reserved, focused confidant, but that’s precisely why he’s the perfect best man. Their friendship thrives on this balance: where the groom brings laughter, Jeff offers steady calm. More than a kind-hearted ally, he’s stood silently by the couple through every high and low, supporting them even when life got rocky. To the couple, he’s not just a witness to their love, but a living reminder that differences forge unshakable bonds.

Ms. Chrisia Mae Atijon

Bridesmaid

Though their friendship is relatively new, there’s an undeniable depth to their bond. The bride holds a special admiration for her sharp wit, disciplined nature, and humble spirit- qualities that inspire a sisterly instinct to protect and uplift her. She often reflects on their shared moments and takes quiet pride in the her achievements, especially those from their time as colleagues.

Mr. Geezer Joaquim Layoso

Groomsman

He’s been part of their happiest memories since he was little. Now a witty, hardworking teen, he stands as their groomsman -a role that shows their pride in how far he’s come. To them, he’s family in every way that matters.

Ms. Marichu Bagaforo

Bridesmaid

She’s the kind of friend who lights up a room just by walking in -bubbly, spontaneous, and always down for an adventure. But what really makes her special to the couple? She’s been their go-to listener through every relationship milestone. She’s one call away, no questions asked. As a bridesmaid, she’s not just part of the squad- she’s the heart of their story, and they wouldn’t have it any other way.

Mr. Judie Cambonga

Groomsman

He’s the groomsman the couple can’t picture their squad without- the kind of friend who shows up before you even ask. When the groom needed help most, he stepped in without hesitation, pure loyalty guiding every move. The bride calls him their “guardian angel,” crediting him with saving the groom during a critical moment. To them, he’s not just a friend; he’s family through and through.

Mrs. Gerard Josephine Layoso

To light our path

As the groom’s sister and a secondary sponsor, she’s not just lighting a candle today. She’s lighting the way for their future. Known for her warmth and unwavering support, she’s the kind of sister who’s always had her brother’s back, whether it’s giving advice or just being his biggest cheerleader. As she holds the candle, it’s a reminder: she’ll keep guiding them with love, just like she always has.

Mr. Lawrence Layoso

To light our path

He’s more than a brother-in-law, he’s the friend who’s walked beside the groom through life’s twists and turns. Today, as he lights the candle alongside his wife (the groom’s sister), it’s a symbol of the guidance he’ll keep offering: steady, warm, and always ready to remind them that family’s got their back.

Ms. Jenny Rose Cerillo

To clothe us as one

Meet the bride’s little sis- aka the independent queen, OG partner-in-crime, and now the couple’s official veil-bearer. She’s seen it all: the bride’s first heartbreak, their cringe-worthy PDA phases, and even their “mababaw na away” (spoiler: she'll often side with the groom). As she tosses the veil over them, it’s her not-so-subtle way of saying, “You’re stuck together now… but don’t stress—I’ll still third-wheel your marriage just to keep things fun.

Mr. Orvil John Dote

To clothe us as one

Meet the veil bearer’s partner—the guy who’s unofficially been part of the family long before the “official” title. He’s the one who spoils both the bride and her sister....because why choose?, listens to the groom’s rants over pulutan, and shows up to every groom's urgent call for celebration with bottles. Today, as he helps wrap the couple in their veil, he’s wrapping the couple in the same "walang iwanan" loyalty he’s shown them for years.

Mrs. Apple Joy Duran

To bind us together

She’s the OG kumare of the couple. Though they rarely see or chat, their mutual respect as each other’s partners has forged a bond that never wavers. True to their role, they’ll be the cord that binds the couple- a reminder that marriage isn’t a solo journey, but a shared venture where both lift each other up, even when “ang bigat na!”. They’re the living emblem of walang iwanan, the keepers of a promise to stay united through every storm.

Mr. Edgardo Duran Jr.

To bind us together

He’s the OG kuya of the crew- the one whose infectious quirk lights up every get-together, whose steadfast loyalty anchors them through storms, and whose brotherhood with the groom now embraces the bride as family. By choosing him, the couple doesn’t just honor tradition, they crown friendship as the ultimate "pamilya sa puso".
