MANILA, Philippines - Portofino, Brittany Corporation’s massive Italian-inspired development south of Manila, offers a unique setting for weddings and other memorable events.
Fernbrook Gardens, located at the heart of the sprawling property, is the latest addition to the Portofino development which incorporates the opulence and elegance of all European architectural elements — Italian, British and Russian, to name a few — standing cohesively under one clear dome. At the heart is a church from where families begin and communities grow.
“Even from afar, Fernbrook Gardens is a sight to behold. It is the perfect complement to the Portofino development. Visitors driving by see this clear dome in the horizon and a row of beautiful Italian homes beside it. We share the same vision of masterful craftsmanship and the attention to the most minute details,” says Mary Lee Sadiasa, Brittany COO.
“More importantly, it provides a unique destination that Portofino residents and the general public can enjoy.”
Fernbrook Gardens is, indeed, the jewel of the Portofino development, a 300-hectare residential property that translates the artistry, passion, elegance and romance of Italy into a haven of dreams.
It is the first establishment in Portofino’s ongoing 15-hectare Italian-inspired commercial area called Mercato di Portofino, and is the realization of its owner Al de Veyra’s vision, which he shares with the management of Brittany Corporation.
Recognized as the venue of choice for weddings, Fernbrook Gardens entices would-be couples even more as it offers a processional via a gondola, which brings the bridal couple into and out of the church through the canal passing underneath a Venetian-inspired bridge. And in keeping with the Venetian tradition, guests are encouraged to stand on the bridge and shower petals to the couple as they kiss while passing under it.
“We are very proud to call Fernbrook Gardens a member of the Portofino development. This property truly carries the vision of Brittany, committed to providing the highest standards of living with masterfully planned masterplanned communities,” enthuses Sadiasa.
Portofino is just five minutes away from Alabang Town Center and Madrigal Business Districts to the north and SM Molino to the west. From Makati, it can be accessed via the Filinvest and San Pedro SLEX toll exits and soon, via the SLEX Daang Hari interchange. To the west, Daang Hari connects to Molino Boulevard that leads to the towns of Cavite, and to Manila via Coastal Road.
