A celebration of love and lifelong commitment recently took place at the memorable nuptials of Harley Bangayan, son of Ruben and Catherine Bangayan, and Kimberly de Leon, daughter of Arvin and Mary Angeline de Leon.

The wedding ceremony was held at Christ the King Parish in Green Meadows, Quezon City, while the elegant reception followed at the Conrad Manila in Pasay City.

Kimberly and Harley, dressed in a sparkling white gown and a crisp gray suit respectively, took their vows before God and their families and friends.

The venue was transformed into a dreamy fantasy world adorned with pastel flowers and fairy lights — the perfect backdrop for a beautiful celebration of love.
