Old souls Niza Limjap and Arvin Quiazon made their special day an understated yet striking all-white affair
At 25, Niza Sabrina Sophia L. Quiazon found her first love in her very first boyfriend, Arvin Ponce Quiazon. They met in 2015 and a year later, after some rather strenuous work on Arvin’s part, the two became an item. “I am an old school type of girl and it took him half a year of persistence, perseverance, and patience to make me say yes to being his girlfriend!” shares Niza.
They were officially together for over a year before Arvin got down on one knee on her birthday. The couple had been invited by Arvin’s parents to join their Euro trip to celebrate their anniversary. Little did she know that Arvin had secretly planned something as well. On the day of her birthday, the group found their way to Versailles and after they finished the tour inside, Arvin knelt down before the gates of the palace. “It was a beautiful surprise to be engaged on my birthday,” she recalls.
The couple exchanged their vows at the Santuario de San Antonio Parish before 700 of their nearest and dearest. Everyone from the handsome couple to the parents of the bride, the best men, maid and matron of honour, bridesmaids, the flower girls, and bearers donned Jc Regalado. The entourage’s colour theme revolved around blush and neutral colours. “I wanted a classy, elegant couture that is timeless,” shares Niza, adding, “I specifically requested for Mikado silk because it looks clean and classy. Not so much of the usual lace, but more of structural silhouettes with big bows and sleeves.”
