BRIDAL GOWNS! BRIDAL GOWNS! BRIDAL GOWNS!

Top bridal designers led by Edward Teng showcased their best designs in the event. Truly a display of artistry of the Filipino:

Power Weddings has become the launching pad of talented hair & make-up artists. It began with Jasmine Mendiola last year (2nd from right), followed by Ara Fernando (3rd from right), then Mayone Bakunawa (extreme left). Ever-present in all bridal fairs of AWP is Beauty Base Salon, with Ms. Love Fontamillas at the helm (extreme right)
 

The first day of the event saw Mayone ( pronounced as May-1! As in the first day of May) doing a fabulous demo on model Erica and brides were in awe of the outcome:

On the second day, it was Ara Fernando’s turn to demo and it was an entirely different Erica we saw! Ara used the accessories of ALL ABOUT BEADs of Liezel Amoncio (fourth pic below). This make up was also used in “MOCK UP WEDDING GRAND ENTRANCE” which followed soon after the makeup session.

Birthday Bash @ POWER WEDDINGS!
The event became much happier with the surprise greetings to birthday boy CESAR ‘CES’ AGLIPAY, one of the moving forces of AWP and birthday gal ERICA CLEMENTE, Paulo’s niece and future top model. Come to think of it – she has become the icon of AWP events with her face all over on all of AWP’s print ads and other promo collaterals. To Sir Ces & Erica, God bless you both!
 

THE GRAND FINALE

During “POWER WEDDINGS 1”, Angel’s Wink thought of something for the event finale that would not be too attention-grabbing so as not to distract the clients inquiring from suppliers. The result was Paulo Clemente - the country’s premiere wedding singer & event host, doing a sample of how he would execute a couple’s grand entrance at a wedding reception.

It was a showcase of showmanship and a mesmerizing voice to boot as he sang his own version of “SO IT’S YOU” (originally sung by Raymond Launchengco in the 80’s) before finally introducing the couple towards the middle part.

He also used samples of his music scoring for couples to know its importance and how it can further heighten some event highlights.
