Good things happen to you when you do good things for other people. Victor Rufino, son of Ernesto Baltazar Rufino Jr. and Josefina Padilla Rufino, and Marisue Aguas, daughter of Dominciano Ayson Aguas and Cecilia Coronel Aguas, were acting as chaperones for friends when they first met in 2003, and a year and a half later, they found happiness in each other; love sprouted like a tender bloom from nothingness. The Santuario de San Antonio Church was the site for their joyous union, where the svelte, blushing bride was radiant in her stylish silky-white wedding gown as she walked down the aisle as the debonair groom awaited her.
Looking on were principal sponsors Narciso Padilla, Rafael Galvez, Felipe Padilla, Jolly Gomez, Connie Lopez, Amelia Coronel, Natividad Jose and Cynthia Bautista, while photographers Eddie Boy Escudero and Cres Yulo chronicled the affair.
Guests, close family and friends were dressed in their formal best as they witnessed wedding vows being exchanged. Reception followed at the Rockwell Center, where sumptuous food was served and everyone made merry as they celebrated the lovely couple’s union.
May you have wedded bliss forever, Victor and Marisue!
