My Ride or Die

Featuring Benjamine Louise Paz Sy and Blizzeth Lee Sy

Benjamine and Blizzeth’s love story began in the halls of their childhood, as they’ve known each other since they were 12 years old. Their connection, however, was purely platonic. Best friends since the 6th grade, they never imagined they would one day fall for each other.

Fast forward to 2019, both single and navigating their own personal journeys, fate brought them closer together. Living as neighbors, they spent a lot of time with one another. By January 2020, just before the pandemic, they officially became a couple, and with lockdown keeping them physically close, their bond only deepened.

Their engagement in August 2023 was a sweet surprise. For Blizzeth’s 28th birthday, Benjamine planned a lunch trip to Tagaytay, where their closest friends were secretly waiting. During their meal, Benjamine popped the question, creating an unforgettable moment filled with joy and love.

The couple’s wedding was a beautiful mix of personal touches and heartfelt moments. They opted for a neutral theme, allowing the pink shades of the bridesmaids’ dresses to stand out. For Blizzeth, one of the most exciting details was the disco balls she specifically requested, adding a fun, playful touch to the celebration. Every vendor was carefully handpicked by the couple, ensuring that each element of the day reflected their personalities.

Blizzeth’s bridesmaids, dressed in various shades of pink, participated in a tea-party-themed prep shoot at their stunning venue in Rizal Park. The photos turned out beautifully, capturing the elegance of the day while highlighting the playful bond she shares with her bridesmaids.

Their wedding was filled with memorable highlights, from their first dance to Taylor Swift’s “Daylight” — a tribute to their shared love for the singer and the unforgettable time they had at Swift’s Eras Tour in Tokyo — to their reception’s unique touches like a Family Feud game and a lively afterparty.

Despite Blizzeth battling a fever on her wedding day, she powered through, looking radiant and enjoying every moment, proving that love, joy, and the support of family and friends can truly lift any spirit. The couple’s personal vows and a heartfelt message from their reverend made the ceremony short but powerful, leaving a lasting impact on everyone present.
