25th Wedding Day of Raul and Rizza

On that sunny day of May 11, 2016 my Hubby and I entered Santo Domingo Church in Quezon City, the aisle lined with bright red carpet and white roses. I sat down with my husband and watched a very romantic event unfold before our eyes. It's the 25th Wedding Anniversary, Renewal of Vows, of my dearest best friends Raul and Rizza.

Rizza wore a stunning off white gown as she and her husband, Raul in a superb black coat, walked down the aisle towards the altar. Their eyes shone with love. The ceremony was so beautiful and touched the hearts of everyone in attendance. After the ceremony, we went to the reception which was held at the Sea Wall Side of Sofitel Garden with the background scene, the beautiful sunset at Manila Bay.

I know exactly the true meaning of a 25th Wedding Renewal of  Vows, the simple way to express the couple’s love and share their love story with those close to them. I was so touched and fascinated with everything that on impulse, I was so inspired to share this great event of this two lovely individual nonetheless my best friend. Our congratulations once again, Rizza and Raul. Looking forward to the great Golden Wedding Anniversary! Cheers!
