It’s not too often that we come across a Christmas-themed wedding. For events and TV host Janeena Chan, it’s because she wanted to give thanks to God and what better way to celebrate God and love than having a wedding during the merriest season of all. Here are some of the highlights.
Bridal look
Janeena Chan exudes elegance with her timeless and classic bridal makeup, artfully done by Albert Kurniawan. He used Dior Beauty red lipstick in 999 to enhance Janeena’s natural beauty—and red to represent the merriest season.
Four wedding dresses
Janeena Chan wowed everyone on her big day by wearing not just one, but four stunning wedding dresses created by talented designers. First, Happy Andrada designed a beautiful dress with a V-neckline, trumpet sleeves, and a high-low skirt. Next, Chris Nick crafted a structured backless halter top paired with a wide-brim hat, giving Janeena a unique and stylish look.
For her walk down the aisle, Janeena chose a beadless rounded corset top and ball skirt, elegantly complemented by beaded wedding gloves designed by Daniel Manila. Last but not the least, Julianne Syjungco created a mesmerizing reception dress for Janeena, featuring a fully beaded bodice, a floor-length pencil-cut skirt, and a long trail that added a touch of glamor to her look.
Star-studded guests
Their list of godparents were nothing short of a powerhouse, including President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and First Lady Liza A. Marcos, Senator Lorna Legarda, Mayor Abigail Binay, Mayor Lucy Torres-Gomez, Dr. Steve Mark Gan, Atty. Annette Gozon-Valdez, Dr. Z and Aivee Teo, Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera, to name a few. Also spotted were Bea Alonzo, Tim Yap, Kelly Misa, David Guison, Angelique Manto, Camille Co and husband Joni and daughter Sienna who participated as one of the flower girls.
Christmas-themed ceremony
The church aisle was adorned with a beautiful display of green and red flowers, completed by twinkling lights. The bride’s bouquet, designed by international events designer Gideon Hermosa, perfectly matched the festive atmosphere of the occasion. The flower girls even had Christmas wreaths as their bouquets.
Holiday snacks
While the guests waited for the reception to commence, guests were invited to wait at the Upper Lobby of the Peninsula Manila to enjoy hot cocoa drinks and gingerbread cookies. An additional Christmas treat awaited guests at the dinner table, ending with a Christmas tree dessert—Davao Chocolate Mousse Tree with praline sauce and toasted peanuts.
Gifts for the guests
Guests were invited to have their photos taken by Moments Lab, and got to bring home a bottle of their chosen fragrance by Tally. A Christmas tree ornament is part of the table setting which guests got to bring home as well.
