Present at the emotion-filled ceremony were Eumir’s father, Ruperto Camara, and Dingdong’s parents, debonair RCBC chairman Rizalino Navarro and Sally Bernabe-Navarro. Fr. Pat Lim officiated the nuptial Mass held at the popular Santuario de San Antonio in Makati. Dingdong looked so lovely and delicate in an Inno Sotto gown with embroidered underskirt, while Eumir looked every inch the lucky groom in a Silk Cocoon barong. The list of prominent principal sponsors included erstwhile Foreign Affairs Secretary and now Presidential Adviser Roberto Romulo; former Finance Secretary Ramon del Rosario; and socialite/philanthropist Menchu Concepcion.
The reception followed at the superbly appointed Rigodon Ballroom of the Manila Peninsula. In the center of the hall was a riveting creation by Heny Sison–a towering cake interestingly fashioned like a heap of gift boxes. Robert Blancaflor of 1816 Flowers transformed the venue into an intimate garden with yellow tulips, fresh flowers and candles lending a romantic ambiance.
After the hearty dinner, the guests swayed to the beat as the Hyperbeat band performed favorite dance tunes. Eumir and Dingdong’s guests gyrated giddily on the dance floor, happy and hopeful for the couple who have been inseparable for over a decade.
Our only wish for you, Eumir and Dingdong, is this–that you be true to each other and remain inseparable for many decades to come!
Happy wedding anniversary to Gani and Vera Isberto, June 6. May you both have many, many more years of wedded bliss.
To Vivien "Babes" Remo and Jonathan "JM" Mendoza, belated happy anniversary last May 26.
So, how was your week?
