Manila Wedding: Bayview Park Hotel -> Malate Church -> Ramon Magsaysay Hall


Ms. Mariam 
Nov 15, 2013
Hotel: Bayview Park Hotel
Church: Our Lady of Remedies Malate Church
Reception:  Ramon Magsaysay Hall


Ms. Mariam inquired us thru email. She sent us her bridal route, paid for her reservation fee and trusted us wholeheartedly to pick her up on her wedding day. We came early and was able to have a little chitchat with her wedding coordinator, Ms. Mary Grace of MGREventServices, while we were mounting the bouquet onto the car. She was nice and very friendly. I think she also did the hosting of Ms. Mariam's reception program, talk about having lots of talent! :)

Going to Bayview Hotel is a little crowded because their entrance is along a busy street. Parking is in front of the hotel though so we did not have a problem looking for a spot. There are also a lot of paid street parking. Bayview Hotel is also facing Roxas Boulevard and has a nice exposure to the afternoon sunlight.






It took us less than 10 minutes to bring Ms. Mariam from Bayview Hotel to Malate Church and that includes the traffic in Manila on a Friday afternoon. Parking space is huge at Malate Church. There is also an in-house reception area but Ms. Mariam and her groom did not avail it. The entrance of Malate Church where the bride will start her walk down the aisle is along a busy street, so watch out for vehicles when having pictorials after the ceremony. The big wooden door that all brides love to have is a nice sight to behold. The church becomes alive and so pretty and charming when there's a wedding because all lights are turned on and the magnificience of the altar is very well seen. It's a lovely Church to have your wedding.








After the wedding, the couple requested to have a stopover at Baywalk in Roxas Boulevard for pictorials. The couple looked so cute having their photo taken in the middle of the road. It is also suprising to note that vehicles stopped and allowed the newlyweds to strike a pose and give their best look amidst the busy-ness of the city. I guess people, young and old, appreciate watching a love story unfold. There were a lot of pictures taken and we especially love their photo with the sunset as their backdrop. 
How romantic!





The couple hurried back to the bridal car to get ready for their reception. Ramon Magsaysay Hall is in front of Diamond Hotel and appears to be a great place to hold a large banquet. The bride was fetched by her bridesmaids and they had her prepped up inside the car. When the bridal party had left, pretty petals surrounded the back area of the car. It's as if merry fairies had come and showered love blessings to the people who used to sit there.
