How are we handling Covid?

We are monitoring CDC guidelines and recommendations.  We have significantly cut down our guest count and are kindly asking all our guests to obtain a negative Covid test result within 72 hours of the event regardless of vaccination status.  Please let us know if you need help coordinating a test.  If you are having any Covid symptoms please stay home.

What is the dress code?

The dress code for our wedding is semi-formal. Ladies should wear cocktail dresses, and gentlemen should wear a suit and tie or a sports coat.  Also keep in mind that it will be warm out.

How do I get from the church to the reception venue?

The reception is a 20 minute drive from the church.  Shuttles will be provided between Towneplace Suites, Lake Forest and Gold Coast Farm and will depart at 4:15 and 4:45.  We don’t want anyone to drink and drive and Lyft/Ubers have been difficult and expensive to get.  Please reach out to us if you’d like to use the shuttle service and are not hotel guests. 

What time will the wedding start and end?

The ceremony starts at 2pm sharp (no Filipino time).  The reception ends at 10pm but the party will continue!  It will probably be at a bar near the hotel, we will keep everyone updated.

What is the weather like at this time of the year?

It is warm and sunny in Orange County so wear your sunblock, sunglasses and a light jacket as the reception is at an outdoor venue.

What can I expect at the Catholic wedding ceremony?

The Catholic church welcomes all Catholics and non-Catholics to witness and celebrate us partaking in the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony.  The ceremony is rich in tradition and rituals and lasts about an hour.
