Dream weddings come true at Edsa Shangri-La Hotel
From the creative team set-ups to the excellent food and impeccable service, Edsa Shangri-La has got all the bases covered. Whether a couple wants simplicity or opulence, the hotel guarantees a night to remember.
From the country’s top chefs to the most creative stylists and floral designers, Edsa Shangri-La is the expert in elegance.
“On the average, we do 25-30 weddings a month,” says Czarina Basa-Gandollas, assistant director of events management for Edsa Shangri-La, “but peaks to around 50 weddings a month in December, January, June, and October. And for every single wedding, we want our brides, grooms, their families and friends to have the perfect wedding. One with memories that will last them a lifetime.”
Together with Themes & Motifs, the Philippines’ premier producer and organizer of wedding fairs, Edsa Shangri-La Hotel caps 2008 with a big year-ender event intended for soon-to-weds, especially targeting the balikbayan market.
“For balikbayan weddings,” Basa-Gandollas adds, “having the wedding reception and guest accommodations all in one location will help avoid both the logistic nightmares and costly challenges of transporting people and things from one place to another on the busiest day of your life — your wedding day. Plus, hotel weddings will provide you not just a wedding reception venue but also the assurance of safety, comfort, convenience, and peace of mind especially if you have international/balikbayan guests who are unfamiliar with the area.”
Ongoing today at Edsa Shangri-La Hote, Mandaluyong City is “Elegant Weddings 2008,” a two-day wedding fair showcasing world-class ideas for brides and grooms.
The Bohol, Dapitan, and Sulu function rooms are styled in various themes. Visitors get special room rates and exclusive discounts to Chi Spa, the hotel’s health and wellness center.
Other highlights not be missed at this year-end wedding fair are Goldenhills Jewelry’s latest collection of wedding bands and accessories, a wedding seminar for soon-to-weds, stylist Robert Blancaflor’s latest wedding styles and ideas, and the formal introduction of T&M Gifts, the Philippines’ first gift registry portal.
