#JessGotLucky: All the things we love about Jessy Mendiola and Luis Manzano’s intimate wedding

Jessy Mendiola and Luis Manzano just let out a secret: they have been married since February.

The couple, who got engaged in December, shared their wedding video via the actress’ YouTube channel. As of this writing, the clip has reached nearly two million views.

Here are all the things we love about the ceremony, which was officiated by Lipa City Mayor Eric Africa on Feb. 21.

It was very intimate. Only a few of their nearest and dearest witnessed the occasion, including Edu Manzano, Vilma Santos-Recto, Senator Ralph Recto, and Ryan Recto. Jessy’s mom, who wasn’t able to attend the affair, expressed her love to the pair via video call.

The audience saw a different side of Luis when he cried as Jessy walked down the aisle. The groom got all jokey again during his wedding vows, which he started with the lyrics to Warrior is a Child. 

For her part, Jessy got all teary-eyed as she recited her marriage vows to her husband. “I will protect you and I promise that if you grow weak, I will be there to fight your battles for you," she said. "Today is the beginning of our journey, our lives together. I choose to spend today and all of my tomorrows with you. I love you, Howhow.”

Jessy and Luis both looked stunning at their wedding. Styled by Patty Yap, Jessy donned a simple yet breathtaking Patricia Santos creation that perfectly matched her hair and makeup done by Anton Papa and Kusie Ho, respectively. Luis, who was groomed by Peps Silvestre and styled by Rex Atienza and Jay Sarmiento, wore a pink suit by Paulo Lazaro. 

The wedding’s overall theme was extremely breathtaking. Held at The Farm, the venue was amped up—or Gideonized—with the brilliance of none other than Gideon Hermosa and his team.

Congratulations, Luis and Jessy!
