We can’t wait to celebrate with you! To keep our gathering intimate, please note that this invitation is for one person only. Kindly RSVP by November 18, 2026, to secure your reserved seat. Looking forward to an unforgettable day!
Guests are welcome to park within the church premises, and dedicated parking is also available at our reception venue, Oasis Manila.
Please reach out to us first! Because we are working with a strict guest list, we ask that you let us know as soon as your schedule opens up. We will do our best to accommodate you and will notify you if a seat becomes available. Kindly avoid arriving unannounced, as we cannot guarantee seating without prior confirmation.
We’ve spent a year planning this special day, and we’d love nothing more than to share every moment of it with our favorite people. Please plan to stay, have fun, and celebrate with us until the very end of the reception!
We wish we could invite everyone, but our guest count is strictly limited. This event is by invitation only, so please check your invite for your designated number of seats. Only guests on the official list will be permitted entry.
While we will certainly miss you, we completely understand that unexpected things happen. If your plans change after RSVPing, please just let us know as soon as you can so we can offer your seat to another guest.
We kindly ask that you stick to your assigned seat. We’ve put a lot of thought into the seating chart to ensure everyone has a great time. Rest assured you’ll be seated with friends and great company! After you register, our coordinators will be happy to help you find your spot.
We love photos and videos however, we kindly ask that you put your phones and cameras away during the ceremony so we can all be fully present for our “I Do’s”. After the ceremony, we encourage you to snap away during the reception! We’ve put our whole hearts into planning this celebration and can’t wait to see the memories you capture later in the evening.
Please use our wedding hashtag.

Yes, a formal RSVP is still required. Submitting your official response allows us to accurately consolidate guest details and finalize the exact headcount necessary for our catering and seating arrangements.
James and Elaine were high school batchmates, but they never really knew each other. Their classrooms were literally just one floor apart, Elaine downstairs and James upstairs. They crossed paths from time to time, never imagining that years later, they would find their way to each other.
In college, James started noticing Elaine passing by Lepanto. He had already been seeing her since 2015, long before Elaine even knew who he was.
Then, in 2018, James finally took his chance. He wrote Elaine a handwritten letter of admiration, took a photo of it, and sent it to Twitter. Elaine respectfully declined. But James stayed, patiently showing her how much he cared through songs, poems, videos, and little ways of making her smile.
Five months later, after the semester ended, Elaine reached out.
And somewhere along the way, she realized that James wasn’t just patiently waiting for her. He genuinely wanted to make her happy. There was something about the way he cared that felt different. Warm, familiar, and somehow easy. It felt like she had known him longer than she actually had.
On May 18, 2019, Elaine finally gave James her first YES, at the top of the MOA Ferris Wheel. 🎡
Six years later, on May 18, 2025, James asked her another question.
This time, he asked for her hand in marriage.
And Elaine said YES for the second time. 🤍
When they look back at their story, it’s funny to think about how many times their lives had already crossed before they ever became “James and Elaine.” One floor apart. Passing each other in school. Seeing each other without really seeing each other. Finding each other years later.
Maybe that’s why their love has always felt a little familiar, like “I know you. I’ve known you.” Like they didn’t really meet for the first time, but simply found each other again.
And after all the years, all the little crossings, and two unforgettable yeses, they’re finally here, ready to choose each other, in this lifetime and every lifetime after. 🤍
