The wedding that everybody is waiting for finally happened last October 27 at the Santo Domingo Church in Quezon City. Sen. Manuel “Mar” Roxas II and broadcast journalist Korina Sanchez tied the knot in a simple but elegant affair where the couple vowed to love each other for the rest of their lives. As they always said, they’ll love each other Kahapon, Ngayon at Bukas. The event is shared with thousands of people of attended and it was touted as the year’s People’s wedding.

The news that Korina Sanchez will have a contemporary Filipiniana themed wedding will surely spark renewed interest on this wedding theme. As we all know, it can as grandiose or as simple as the budget can hold. But what exactly constitutes a Filipiniana Wedding in the 21st century? For sure, it doesn’t need to look like a 19th century affair.
