Abbey Gorham
Abbey Gorham
Bridesmaid
Abbey is one of Tammy's best friends from childhood.  We went to Brent International School in Manila together with Daphne, growing up together and seeing each other at our best and worst moments.  Abbey currently lives in Los Angeles with her husband Jimmy and their precious kitty Coco.  We're so lucky to be able to meet up as adults despite living on opposite sides of the world to be there for each other for special events.
Daphne Tonge
Daphne Tonge
Bridesmaid
Daphne is one of Tammy's best friends from childhood.  Not only did we go to school together in Manila, but we also shared a flat in London while I was in uni (Daphne was working by then, like a real adult).  Although Daphne still lives in London with her husband Alex and adorable daughter Theia, we've managed to see each other regularly during holidays, eating and shopping our way through London, Hong Kong and Manila.
Rebecca Vibert
Rebecca Vibert
Bridesmaid
When Becca first moved to Hong Kong and started working with Tammy as English teachers, there was an instant connection.  She is my first true 'adulthood' friend, a bond that is precious because it's rare and based completely on who I am today.  She has seen me navigate the waters of adulthood, from work life to my love life and has always been a source of support.  I was devastated when she moved to London because I felt like a part of my life in HK disappeared.  Fortunately, I've been able to visit her in London and was thrilled to be at her and Richard's wedding in Jersey.  I'm even more overjoyed that she'll be at mine.
Michelle Cortes
Michelle Cortes
Bridesmaid
Michelle and Tammy have been working together in City Kids Preschool for over two years.  At one point we even lived around the corner from one another!  Michelle has been my confidante as I learn and grow, both professionally and personally.  Her sense of adventure and wanderlust inspire me to look ahead and broaden my horizons while at the same time reminding me of our own heritage and culture from the Philippines.

David Walsh
David Walsh
Best Man

Walshy is Kevin's best friend and partner in crime.

I met Walshy during secondary school. We were both into music, festivals and general shenanigans. We grew up around a very close circle of friends and ended up living together in Waterford (Ireland) which was definitely a lot of fun. Following our graduating from Waterford Institute of Technology we backpacked around South America and after that we lived and worked in Australia. Walshy stayed in Ireland as I headed east and has come out to Asia on a few occasions for long and memorable stints. We are in contact every other day and trips home wouldn’t be the same without figuring out solutions to the worlds problems over a good Irish beef fillet

Garrett Fitzgerald

Groomsman

Garrett and Kevin have been friends since their teens.

I met Garrett while grinding handrails and curbs on the streets of Waterford. We were both skaters but he was always (and still is) into motorbikes, quads, gaming, electronic music so naturally I looked up to him (as I still do). Garrett was my trusted advisor during my adolescent years, I have shown up on his door step once or twice with relationship issues and was always welcomed with open arms . He has always taught me to dream big, enjoy live, try new things and not to things too seriously.

David Butler
David Butler
Groomsman

David is Kevin's only and older brother.

David is living in Dublin with his beautiful family. Throughout my life David has been (and still is) my role model. He has always pushed me to be better in my career and life in general. He has bailed me out of many a tough situation down through the years and has always welcomed me when I rock up on his doorstep. Since I have moved abroad David has come to visit me on in H on many occasions as well as in neutral venues across the world. I am at my happiest when I am discussing life with David in a random country while staring out over a sea, city, mountain or temple over a nice drink.

Javier Wang

Javier is one of my best friends in Asia. He is from China but lives in Hong Kong.

We met through work. Javier was hired a fresh grad on my team Guangzhou (China) having just finished Uni in the UK. Javier came to Ireland In 2017 and spent a weekend (that he probably won’t forget) in Templebar, Dublin where he met my close friends and family - he even brought a tart for my parents. In 2018 I was invited to the North East of China to spend a Lunar New Year. Despite the -30degree weather I was warmly welcomed into his family home and was introduced giant Dailan see snails for the first time,

The Finca

The grounds of the Finca are very beautiful with a huge pool and spa massage facilities if you fancy pamping yourself. More info below

Spa & Wellbeing 


If you want to stretch your legs after all of the eating and drink then we recommend exploring the venue surroundings. The below link (from the venues webpage) has info on hiking trails and outdoor activities in the area

Around the finca

Estepona

Estepona is a fantastic little town with a cute and colourful town centre as well as a long promendade and beach. If you have time in your holiday schedule we highly recommend exploring it.

Andalusia Recommendations

Andalucia is a huge and diverse region of Spain but having spent a bit of time road-tripping here last year i suggest checking out the following places if you plan to spend more time in Spain outside of the wedding schedule

Cadiz: One of the oldest cities in Euope. Great local food and white sandy beaches

Frigiliana: A quaint little village overlooking Nerja where all buildings are painted white - as you can see in the image on the right.

Ronda: Sweeping valleys and cobbled streets. A nice place for photos and the perfect distance for a day trip form Estepona or Malaga

Granada: Its a treck across the Sierra Nevada but its a beautful city with lots to do. The Alhambra is world famous but you need to book ahead.
