Our Wedding

It all started in 2015 with four simple words from Argel: “She’s cute though.” And just like that, the universe (and a mutual friend group) began its matchmaking magic. Kim invited him to her birthday, and from there, the talking turned into dating — with a budget-friendly romance fueled by Asian Noodle House, and late night dinner dates (more like late dinner, early breakfast at Denny's)For two years, they pulled off a secret relationship like undercover agents — until Kim finally decided to introduce Argel to her wonderfully crazy family (though she’d already met his siblings early on..). One by one, both sides of their families got to know the couple behind the scenes.From hiding their relationship to sharing more openly. From secretly making time to spend holidays together to sharing most of the holidays openly together with their families. From Asian Noodle House and late night trips to Denny's to traveling around the US, Caribbean, Philippines, and more to go.After spending 8 years together, Argel popped the question in 2023, wrapping up nearly a decade of laughter, love, and noodles. Now, after 10 unforgettable years, they’re finally making it official and saying “I do” — proof that great love stories take time, teamwork, and a whole lot of patience with each other’s families.

From 'She’s Cute Though' to 'I Do'

Our Story

Photos

As Kim's little sister, she’s spent a lifetime perfecting the fine arts of observation, imitation, and instigation. Always there when we need her, whether it’s a shoulder to cry on or a reason to celebrate — preferably over food she paid for. Generous, loyal, and forever down for a good time, she’s the tiny tornado of fun we never knew we needed but can’t live without. Now she’s upgraded from baby of the family to boss of the bridal party.

Kaira

Meet Arjay — the best man and basically my twin in everything. We’re so alike it’s borderline telepathic: same taste, same vibe, same chaos energy. He’s kind, helpful, and always the first one on the dance floor. But fair warning: once he’s a few drinks in, his English levels up to something straight out of a Shakespearean fever dream. Dictionary not included.

Arjay

She’s Kim’s best friend and hands-down one of the kindest, most genuine, and generous souls you'll ever meet. But don’t let the halo fool you — getting us kicked out of clubs and bars is basically her signature move. She’s chaos wrapped in kindness, and we absolutely adore her for it.

Once the quietest guy in the room, now you can’t get him to stop talking — especially if there’s a drink in hand. Whether it’s Beer Pong, Billiards, or Christmas party games, he’s always game. Just don’t ask him about his spaghetti habits… because yes, he really eats it without sauce. A walking plot twist, and we love him for it.

Meet Dannielle — the queen of brutal honesty and zero sugarcoating. If you want the truth, she’s got it, unfiltered and straight to the point. Our favorite pastime? Deep talks. Loyal, real, and always showing up when it counts — she's the ride-or-die with a sharp tongue and a softer heart.

Dannielle

Arvin’s the resident bad boy of the sibling squad — charmingly nice 99% of the time, but trust me, you don’t want to be around for that 1% when he’s mad (creepy doesn’t even cover it). He’s fun but impossible to argue with. Basically, a lovable rebel with a party playlist and a warning label.

Arvin

Meet Kleirizza — the certified ‘ate’ of the group. She’s one call away, five steps ahead, and somehow always the friendliest person in the room.  Let’s be real — the party doesn’t even start until she walks in. Without her, it’s just a mildly organized gathering with music.

Kleirizza

Arijo — the eldest, the drama king, and the mastermind of sibling chaos. Known for endlessly bullying Argel (out of love… probably), and for his golden rule: no favor goes unpaid. He’s nice, sure — but don’t expect anything for free. Still, he’s the groomsman you want on your side… just don’t forget to read the fine print. We still love him though.

Arijo

Don’t let the quiet vibe and artistic soul fool you — Monica might seem demure, but she’s always down to party when it counts. She’s the calm before the dance floor storm, and we love that sneaky wild side.

Monica

He’s the silent type… until he isn’t. Quiet on the outside, pure chaos on the inside — and when he finally speaks, brace yourself, because it’s at full volume. He’s the kind of guy who brings the good vibes whether we’re drinking, partying, or trash-talking during sports. Fun to be with, but also totally cool doing his own thing — basically, the human version of a chill playlist with a surprise bass drop.
