An endearing love story
A picture of a beautiful marital union woven by God’s love was witnessed by everyone as the ageless Maritess and dapper Susing Pineda recently celebrated their ruby wedding anniversary at the elegant ballroom of Taal Vista Lodge in Tagaytay. Amid the perfectly fine weather and the cool breeze, the lovely couple renewed their vows, overlooking the scenic Taal Volcano. It was indeed a colorful celebration as family and friends came in fuchsia, ruby and pink and had the most fun as they watched the famous violinist Jay Cayuca serenade the beautiful pair with heartfelt love songs. Family and friends were instantly transported in time as the couple’s wedding memorabilia were displayed such as the bride’s Ramon Valera gown, first wedding albums and a life size replica of their original wedding picture. Highlight of the evening was an audio visual presentation of Susing and Maritess’ interesting love story prepared by their charming children — Ria Luis, Juan and Patricia. With deep gratitude, the affair ended with the couple thanking all their loved ones who have been part of their memorable 40 years together.
Congratulations!
