It will begin at The Lobby that will be garlanded with masses of flowers, created by floral artist Zenas Pineda, the colorful blooms will be a sight to behold. The Upper Lobby will be transformed into a pop-up space offering a showcase of jewelry from Mel Diamonds, bespoke shoe wear from Jimmy Choo and Shoepatos, lifestyle selections from West Elm, makeup artists from Bobbi Brown, Estee Lauder and Jo Malone, holiday and honeymoon destinations from the Peninsula Hotels in Asia, the US and Europe to those in Punta Fuego, Tagaytay and El
Nido, tablescapes by Beng Villanueva and Teddy Manuel, and the bridal collections by the designers of
the Manila Fashion Festival.
The Conservatory will feature a carefully selected gathering of the country’s most exclusive wedding and party suppliers and stylists like Jo Claravall, Jason Magbanua, Dave Sandoval, RJ Ledesma, Cake Concept, and dozens more whose vetted services and seasoned advice are an invaluable resource when planning one of the most important moments in a couple’s life.
Highlighting the main attraction, which is the wedding day, this will be the first-ever Manila Fashion Festival Bridal Collection at The Lobby, a fashion parade of stunning bridal wear by acclaimed Filipino designers Banggo Niu, Steph Tan, Jun Escario, and Vin Orias. The shows will combine the passion of these four designers, the intimacy of a boutique show, and the beauty of bridal fashion in a series of mini collection shows set against the backdrop of The
