The start of forever
“Forever is composed of nows.” — Emily Dickinson
It was really heartwarming to see the dashing Patrick Chan, managing director of The Bellevue Hotels and Resorts (BH&R) and charming Denice Bayhon exchange “I do’s” at the St. James the Great Parish in Ayala Alabang. It was one moving and romantic moment as the glowing bride, Denice, walked down the aisle accompanied by her mom Emely and brother Maurice, while her dapper groom Patrick, son of dynamic BH&R chairman Johnny Chan and wife Debbie, eagerly waited for her at the altar. The blessed union was witnessed by family members and close friends, including principal sponsors SM Investments Corp. vice chair and Banco de Oro chair Tessie Sy-Coson, Douglas Yu, Lark Marking, Willie Vidal, Dante Leoncini, Judy Tioco, Dr. Eduardo Chiong Uy-Co and Elselita Pe.
Special guests such as Transnational Diversified Group founder and chairman Roberto Delgado and international Filipino hotelier Arthur Lopez and wife Letty also came to extend their best wishes to the couple. An elegant cocktail reception took place at The Bellevue Hotel’s Tower Wing Poolside followed by a fabulous dinner at its luxurious Grand Ballroom. Everyone had an amazing time during the momentous occasion, replete with great food, superb musical entertainment and good cheers.
Congratulations Patrick and Denice! A toast to a happy married life!
