Mia Arcenas and Jacques Christophe Branellec make it official in Brittany
After the lovely Cebuana Mia Arcenas said yes to her boyfriend, Jewelmer’s dashing Jacques Christophe Branellec, last November 2015, the ultra-stylish twosome planned a romantic destination wedding that everyone would be buzzing about long after they exchanged their “I do’s.” The French-Filipino affair took place over a few well-planned days in a small and charming fishing village located in Bretagne in northwestern France.
The celebrations began the day before the wedding where the multinational roster of guests toasted the couple at a pastel-and-print-themed welcome cocktail. At the ceremony the next day at the stately Église Notre-Dame de Croaz Batz in Roscoff, the bride was an ethereal vision in one of her own elegant creation, while the groom looked dapper in a Jun Escario suit. This was followed by a gorgeous country chic reception, which was held at a beautiful manor called Manoir de Penfao in St Thegonnec.

The wedding party getting down
Mia knew Jacques was the one when her mum got emotional the first time she met him. In fact, not only her mum but both their family and friends were genuinely happy for them since the fi rst time they got together
