Featuring Tomy Manahan and Keanna De Guia

Tomy and Keanna love story began in the hallways of Ateneo de Manila University, where they were course mates whose paths crossed many times before destiny decided to make its move.

They first met through Ateneo Lex during a Freshie event, but it was not exactly love at first sight. Their friendship slowly grew from simple hellos to shared lunches at Mom and Tina’s, spontaneous road trips, and countless conversations that made ordinary days feel special.

Over time, what started as an easy friendship turned into something deeper. They explored new places, traveled together, and created a love built on laughter, comfort, and genuine connection.

“From the very beginning, our connection felt effortless and natural,” they shared, describing a relationship rooted in everyday joy and quiet understanding.

On July 25, 2024, surrounded by the dreamy lavender fields of Furano, Japan, Tomy asked Keanna the question that would change their lives forever. Nervous but determined, he got down on one knee and asked her to spend forever with him. Her first response was laughter, followed by a heartfelt yes.

The moment became even more unforgettable when her family, who had been hiding nearby, came out to celebrate with them. It was sweet, emotional, and honestly, movie-scene material.

Their wedding day was everything their love story had always been: intimate, meaningful, and deeply personal. Surrounded by family and their closest friends, Tomy and Keanna exchanged vows in a ceremony that felt less like a grand production and more like a beautiful reflection of the life they had built together. They chose a church wedding because faith and family had always been central to their relationship, making the moment even more sacred.

Set against the stunning backdrop of Madre de Dios Chapel in Tagaytay Highlands, the ceremony felt almost surreal. The serene atmosphere, paired with the view of Taal Lake and the volcano, gave the day a timeless kind of magic. From the soft blush dresses of their entourage to the carefully chosen details, everything felt classic, elegant, and completely true to them.

One of the most emotional moments was Keanna’s walk down the aisle with her parents by her side. As Tomy waited at the altar, surrounded by cheers, tears, and quiet smiles, the moment felt like the beginning of something beautifully new.

After ten years together, their wedding was not just a celebration of love. It was a homecoming, a promise, and a reminder that the best kind of love grows steadily, joyfully, and side by side.
