Featuring Don Richmond Chua and Tiffany Edeline Tiuson Ang
In the midst of the pandemic, a group called FIL-CHI Kaishao Group became an unlikely catalyst for romance. Don and Tiffany first crossed paths there, with Tiffany’s friend posting her profile, and Don being tagged by a mutual acquaintance. Initially, their connection didn’t spark, but Don’s persistence paid off. As conversations turned into something more, they began to see a future together.
Their engagement in June 2023 was a beautifully orchestrated surprise. Tiffany’s close friend invited her on a road trip to Tagaytay, claiming it was a much-needed escape from work. Little did Tiffany know, her friend was secretly helping Don with the proposal. Hours of delays and subtle hints led Tiffany to an unforgettable moment when Don finally popped the question, leaving her completely stunned.
When it came to their wedding, Don and Tiffany chose a color palette that spoke to their minimalist yet elegant taste: pastel blues, grays, and pinks. These light hues reflected their shared passion for simplicity and sophistication, creating a wedding that was both striking and understated. The theme was a reflection of their personalities—calm, composed, and meaningful.
“Everything in our wedding was according to what we dreamt of when we were kids and when our friends would see it they would immediately know that it was us. From planning the little details to big details everything was just the two of us.”– Tiffany
The planning, which unfolded over just five months, was deeply personal. Every detail, from the grand to the minute, was a reflection of their dreams and values. Their wedding day was filled with memorable moments, particularly the sight of Don’s tears as Tiffany walked down the aisle. Despite some hiccups along the way, what stood out most was the emotional weight of their vows and the praise Tiffany received for her stunning gown and overall look. Their wedding was a testament to their love, elegantly simple yet profoundly heartfelt.
