A Grand and Memorable Occasion

Ric Siccion and Christine Olivarez met at a business convention in Singapore and were together for four years before he proposed on Valentine’s Day. “When I stepped down the car, I saw a display of fireworks, a giant bouquet of flowers and balloons,” says Christine. “The next thing I know, Ric was down on one knee, holding a little box with a diamond ring inside, and then he asked me if I can marry him.”

The ceremony took place at the Manila Cathedral, followed by a dinner reception at Okada Manila, in the presence of their families and closest friends. Christine says that what made her wedding memorable was its uniqueness. “We wouldn’t change any detail of the wedding. It was magical and very memorable for us,” says the happy bride.
