Patio Victoria takes care of wedding needs

MANILA, Philippines - Patio Victoria, the ideal setting for that perfect wedding, makes it even easier for a bride to make her dream wedding come true.

Patio Victoria is owned by former actress Cristina Gonzalez, who’s now a councilor and real-life leading lady of Tacloban City Mayor Alfred Romualdez.

Patio Victoria has an old world charm that can be found only within the “Walled City” of Intramuros. Cobblestone walkways, an antique wooden gate, lush foliage and an old-fashioned fountain are only some of the features that make the place the perfect venue for a wedding.

It has two gardens named after Cristina’s daughters, Sofia and Diana, and an air-conditioned banquet hall. All three venues can accommodate as many as 1,000 guests. Both gardens have gazebos, a covered area on the side to protect guests against the sun or light showers. In case of heavy rains, the reception can be moved to the air-conditioned banquet room.

Patio Victoria is a one-stop shop for brides who want a beautiful yet fuss-free wedding. It offers everything that a couple would need to plan their wedding — bridal bouquets, flowers for the entourage as well as the church, wedding cake, souvenirs, invitations, makeup artists, bridal car, photo and video coverage, butterflies, string quartet, live band or singers, emcee and wedding coordinator.
