Louise is Paula's older sister and has been her lifelong best friend (and no. 1 frenemy) since birth. Louise has been a second parent, a key role model, support and inspiration to Paula growing up. Louise has always been one of the primary enablers, support and enthusiast to all of Paula's endeavours - from being her first client as a house designer in Sims, to being Paula's second line of eyes for colour balance and finishes to her design projects. Paula's most excited and thrilled to have Louise by her side as she navigates through wedding planning, all the while also awaiting for the arrival of Louise's little one.

Rialyn is Paula's younger sister and has been her lifelong live entertainment (since Rialyn's birth). Rialyn's energy is very contagious and has always been a wave of sunshine (despite her gullibility) to everyone around her. Paula's very happy and thrilled to have Rialyn growing up - playing the most random video games on the Playstation, watching Ate Allen play Suikoden or Sims, to figuring out bus rides together or carpool routes to work together. She may be a practicing vet (Dogtor C), but Rialyn will always be a baby girl to her Ate Pau. Paula's very excited to prepare for the wedding with Rialyn's sunshine energy and can't wait to party for the wedding day!

Eloisa is Paula's soul-sister. Since they became classmate in 8th grade in the Philippines, despite only being in the same classroom for 8 months together, they have stayed connected for more than a decade! They are a true testament of long distance friendships! Despite being a whole ocean and more apart, Eloisa has been one of the strong pillars for Paula. Through all the huge milestones, challenges and accomplishments in Paula's life, Eloisa has been one of the key foundation in keeping Paula's (in)sanity at bay. Paula cannot wait to finally reunite with Eloisa for her special day!

Aiden has been Jonathan's closest friend since 7th grade days from H.C. Avery Middle School. Aiden has been one of Jonathan's most trusted friends and has been a constant buddy. From playing Guitar Hero or Halo for hours, to helping each other move houses - Aiden's been with Jonathan through some of the biggest moments in his life. Exciting times indeed as they both continue to accompany and celebrate each other together in the next new chapters of their lives! With Aiden navigating through life as a dad to beautiful, Nelly, and Jonathan to navigate through life as a future-husband. Times may be a constant change, but Aiden and Jonathan will always have the same bond as they did from middle-school days!

"Are you my friend? Are you my financial advisor?" Expect all the hangouts to be much more memorable when we have Akash around! From having silly dares, and drawing up a tally board during studio days with Jonathan (sorry Akash, Paula can't say she'd let Jonathan add another point on his scoreboard haha!) to bringing some of the best tandoori chicken during camping - best bet Akash knows how to keep a party memorable! P.S. Watch out for a nice ride, it might just be Akash arriving, or should we say "Mr. Steal Yo Girl"

"POLA! Musta?" "Mr. Wee, what's new??" "EMMA-BUG! I'mma be your godparent!" Can't miss Mr. Kazel Domingo when it comes to hyping up all the next good adventures we have coming up! Best bet you can catch him working on his barista skill, prepping his car or scooter for the good weather season, or overall just happy to see our Emma-bug when the opportunity arises!

Charles has been one of the closest friends of Paula & Jonathan in the ED program. From doing push-ups with Jonathan to power through sessions of procrastination for assignment deadlines, to brainstorming with Paula in conceptual massing on a studio project - Charles has been the go-to guy to bounce all the best ideas with and finding out the next best game to play for game nights!

Our Manager from California! As a co-member of the Combate Master's Club, Paula's cousin Kiko exemplified great skills at managing an itinerary for a 10-day Holiday vacation in 2019 that is never to be forgotten! Kiko may be a key influence on Paula's developed fondness for collecting adidas shoes, but Kiko always knows how to catch the tiny details to appreciate everyone! Jonathan's most excited to have more family and a cousin he can bond with - and we're most excited to have our California manager join us in our wedding entourage!

Nem is one of Paula's closest friends, especially on the road of trying to stay sane on powering through studio deadlines from ED and conquering the Master's program. From making sure to always go for a needed coffee break or a step away pause from our stressful schoolwork, to squeezing in a workout. Overall making sure we were all mentally still alive! Nem has been a key support to Paula in navigating through the challenging times and the good. Naturally, Nem's gotta be by Paula's side as she powers through one of the biggest milestone projects in her life!

Sack Girl! What all started as an iconic Little Big Planet character reference, has led to never-ending random laughs and giggles whenever we all get reunited! Apart from knowing how to defeat the Ender Dragon in Minecraft, or being the biggest victim of her cousins in playing Among Us, you best hope you're also in her team when it comes to playing Basketball! As much as Djae loves visiting Winnipeg as she loves the winter season, her Ate Paula & Kuya Tantan are very happy to have her in town as part of their wedding entourage!

Joven and Paula has clicked ever since meeting and coincidentally having all the same classes in grade 9 as new students to Sisler High School. It started from one conversation if they had graphics class together on the first day of school, to now arranging to squeeze coffee dates regardless of how jam-packed their calendars may be! Joven has been one of Paula's constant friends regardless of how misaligned their schedules and courses may be. Paula's excited to have Joven as a bridesmaid and is excited to party with Joven!

Alyssa has been Paula's no. 1 hype girl ever since they clicked non-stop in grade 10 chamber choir! From trying to make it to choir practice at 7:30 am, to meeting up in University College and struggling on a course that was supposed to be a GPA booster that we cursed together! Alyssa has been one of Paula's top supporter and believer, and is, if not, one of the proudest friend to Paula's every accomplishment! Naturally, in both of their exciting times of their lives in wedding planning, Paula needs her hype girl!
