The vow renewal of Mans and Mimi Meyer was a hush-hush affair as it was a surprise. For Mans, that is!

This made organizing quite a challenge especially for Mimi who had to put things under wraps until the big reveal last February 14, 2013. Mimi and Mans’ wedding took place five years ago in Ireland and Mimi wanted to relive that moment, but this time, in a land she calls home and with the comforting presence of families and friends.

The beautiful event was adorned with topiaries, bows, swags, and wreaths made of calla lilies, Japanese lanterns, hurricane lamps that encased scented candles, had a signature colour of sage green and unfolded on the sprawling grounds of Villa Maria Luisa Hotel in Tandag City, Philippines. Mimi’s invites earlier this year were in keeping with the elegance on the event, she chose the Bride & Groom motif in Sage green with an A6 sage pocket.

Mans was dapper in an Italian vest worn over a matching tie and white dress shirt; and she was alluring in an ecru empire-cut gown by Manila-based designer Ryan Madamba.

Mimi’s wedding is to be featured in a magazine so watch this space to find out where to see pictures!
