For those who want to exchange wedding vows in an elevated location, the Plaza De Aza is a roof deck venue that oversees the astonishing nature of the church.
Manila Cathedral
Imagine walking through the entryway of the Manila Cathedral and hearing your heels click as you walk on the marble flooring. You glance around and see mosaic panels where the light penetrates, creating a Bokeh effect on the floor. As you continue to walk deeper inside, you pass through arcaded colonnades and feel its strength as the entire vaulted ceiling of the edifice rests upon it.
Able to cater to two hundred guests, the Manila Cathedral is a premier cathedral found in the core of the walled city of Intramuros. Following the formal name of Manila Metropolitan Cathedral-Basilica, it is the first-ever cathedral in the country.
For the love of Filipino history, exchange vows with your spouse under the Neo-Romanesque-inspired roof of the Manila Cathedral that witnessed thousands of romantic and melancholic peculiar events.
Saint Benedict Parish
If you are perchance the type of person to experience an enormous feeling when first laying eyes on the exterior of a church, the kind to get goosebumps as your eyes trail every detail of the structure that makes it stand tall and proud, then you will instantly fall in love with Saint Benedict Parish. The parish is illuminated by natural light and its abbey-style picturesque beauty is surrounded by white painted walls. An all-white themed wedding will definitely blend in with the purity and innocence the parish exudes.
Situated in Silang, Cavite, Saint Benedict Parish is fully air-conditioned to make you and your guests feel comfortable all throughout the wedding ceremony. Feel infinitely good about yourself as you walk down the aisle.
San Antonio De Padua
A well-manicured pathway filled with flora and a majestic fountain made of cobblestone with angel statuettes poised under the image of Saint Anthony of the child Jesus will greet you and your guests with grandiosity. The San Antonio de Padua Church manifests simplicity and tranquility that makes a wedding ceremony peaceful and intimate. The rustic charm of the perfectly designed stained-glass windows lets natural light shine upon the beautiful ornate patterned wood floor of the church.
The San Antonio de Padua church was erected along a narrow street that links Sta. Rosa-Tagaytay to Silang town. It became popular for weddings because of its sheltered location where it practically feels like a whole different world.
San Sebastian Church
The 400-year old San Sebastian Church, renowned for its architectural structure, is located in Plaza del Carmen in the heart of Quiapo. Despite being located along the bustling streets of Manila, the church maintains its serene and peaceful nature inside. The church encompasses the true spirit of Gothic revival with its fabricated steel interior structure and exquisitely detailed ceiling.
With its Gothic-style interiors, the Roman Catholic minor basilica almost feels like a distinct era as you step foot inside. Considered to be a National Historic Landmark and National Cultural Treasure, exchange your wedding vows proudly as a couple making new marks with the history it holds.
