Paolo and Marian first connected online during the pandemic, both seeking companionship in uncertain times. They bonded over Harry Potter marathons, movies and series, true‑crime documentaries, good food, scary stories, a bit of gaming, design and the arts — even chats about stocks and financial literacy.
Through months of video calls, they learned each other’s rhythms and families. When Paolo finally visited Marian in Bacolod, everything clicked. They began alternating visits between Bacolod and Manila, introducing one another to friends and relatives, celebrating milestones, and traveling together.
Now they’re getting married — ready to end the LDR, open a new chapter, build a family, and make more memories side by side.

We totally understand that life gets busy! However, since we’ll be finalizing guest counts for seating and catering, those who don’t send an RSVP by the deadline will be considered as “unable to attend.”
