As Wedding Essentials celebrates 15 years, we also celebrate our biggest Tadhana yet! So in case you missed the two-day celebration of love, victories, and memories that last a lifetime, we share with you some of the brightest moments from the show:

Booths filled with some of the industry’s top suppliers were lined up for soon-to-weds to get the best deals and packages for their big day.


Upon entering the event tent, you see the jaw-dropping setup by Teddy Manuel and Gideon Hermosa who transformed the venue into what a beach wedding could look like, using delphinium, papyrus, and pampas grass.




Kicking off the celebration is a pocket show in the Tap Room of The Manila Hotel where the launching of WE Grooms was announced with a fashion show featuring designers Ryan Chris, Rau Uson-Ablaza, and Raf Gonzales.


Designers Chynna Mamawal, Julianne Syjuco, Patty Valle, and Amir Sali’s creations served as the show’s grand finale and concluded Day 1 of Tadhana.
