Spring-inspired wedding of a handsome couple By Maurice Arcache Philippine Daily Inquirer First Posted 04:15:00 07/06/2008
MANILA, Philippines - It was a beautiful, breezy, sunny afternoon, dahlings when the eye-catching, radiant-looking bride Regina Filamor, daughter of mega businessman Eric Filamor and his wife Susan Vito, and brilliant, good-looking Tonito Payumo, son of former Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority chair and Bataan Rep. Felicito Payumo and his wife, sultry beauty Daisy Sison, exchanged “I do’s” at the cool Tagaytay Highlands’ quaint Madre de Dios Chapel, palanggas.
Regina and Tonito’s wedding details and ceremony were superb—from the delicate floral arrangements to the spring-inspired outfits of the entourage and to the well-polished chapel. It was the most inviting setting for the famille of both sides and close pals who witnessed and participated in the beautiful couple’s new chapter of their life together, dahlings.
Après the solemn church rituals, the newlyweds held their grand reception in Midlands cool veranda, where 300 of their invitees couldn’t say enough of the superbly prepared dinner menu.
Then, the “roasting” of the couple took place. It was participated in by some of their real close friends, palanggas.
Pleasant surprises
A few pleasant surprises came along the way as well. Tonito recited a romantic poem and sang his own rendition of Coldplay’s “Yellow” to his beautiful wife who couldn’t hold back her tears.
To add more spice to this perfect wedding, the couple surprised everyone by presenting funny “behind-the-scenes” of the early hours of their wedding. Tonito’s father surprised the couple with an awesome display of fireworks.
Once the toasting of the popular bubbly’s Moët et Chandon champagne took place, the so-in-love couple hit the dance floor with a super fun and entertaining number to get the party on the roll.
No sooner than you could bat an eyelash, the young, hip and young at heart rocked with Tonito’s pals, former colleagues and classmates from London Business School and Regina’s gang from high school and Boston University. They all jetted in from various parts of the world to witness Tonito and Regina’s priceless celebration.
A perfect match definitely made in heaven, dahlings.
Cheers, dahlings, to our newest Mr. and Ms Payumo.
