We're just as excited as you are and already counting down the days until our curiosity and anticipation are satisfied, but until then, we're looking back at the best couple moments from last year's ball to refresh our memory.

Anne Curtis and Erwan Heussaff
BLK creative director, It's Showtime host, and versatile actress made hearts flutter when she and her hubby and restaurateur Erwan Heussaff spent the night looking like teenagers in love on prom night.
Liza Soberano and Enrique Gil
Liza definitely stole the show when she arrived in her Alexander McQueen number but it was her onscreen partner and real-life boyfriend who truly brought out the glow in her! We have our fingers crossed that she'll be well enough by the time the red carpet rolls out. As of this writing, this photo got more than 1.1 million likes on Instagram.
MayMay Entrata and Edward Barber
MayMay's journey to international stardom has always mirrored that of a fairy tale come to life and as she walked down the red carpet—hand in hand with her prince charming, Edward Barber—she was nothing less than a princess.
Jessy Mendiola and Luis Manzano
Not one to shy away from different glam looks, hairstyles, and red carpet style, Jessy never fails to make big impressions in the glitziest of events. With her current look of bold hair colors paired with trendy makeup, we seriously can't wait for her to make her big reveal! For extra "kilig," know too that this year's ball will be she and her beau Luis' fourth together.
Pia Wurtzbach and Marlon Stockinger
We're used to seeing this beauty queen and actress look like a living Barbie doll, so when she showed up looking like a bronzed goddess, all eyes were definitely glued to her! Pia Wurtzbach wasn't afraid to go down the path less traveled, style-wise, and her date, car racer Marlon Stockinger, couldn't have looked prouder to have her by his side.
Sarah Geronimo and Matteo Guidicelli
Classic and timeless—that's the right way to describe the vibe that celeb couple Sarah Geronimo and Matteo Guidicelli gave off in last year's ball. Together, they proved that you don't necessarily have to dress boldly and brightly to make an impression.

Elegance can be subtle, too, as proven by Sarah and Matteo.
Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla
Even with Kathryn Bernardo's massive success with co-star Alden Richards in worldwide blockbuster "Hello, Love, Goodbye," her forever date and one and only match remains to be Daniel Padilla. The young couple has attended seven balls together since they were introduced as a fledgling love team all those years ago.
Nadine Lustre and James Reid
Who could forget one of the night's most daring and experimental couple looks, served hot by none other than Nadine Lustre and James Reid? Forgoing predictable gowns and tuxedos, this pair had jaws dropping with their strappy, leather-inspired ensembles that had everyone talking about them for days on end.

The devil is in the details. Nadine's lip ring (though just an accessory for the night and not an actual piercing) and James' jacket harness completed their ball looks.
Kim Chiu and Xian Lim
Fresh from their headline-making moment at the #AllStarGames2019, Kim Chiu and Xian Lim have set the bar extremely high for celeb couples unafraid of showing affection on the red carpet with cameras capturing the moment from all angles.

Not everyone can pull off a ball gown as voluminous and Cinderella-esque, but this hand painted butterfly-inspired Michael Cinco number was perfect on Kim and looked even more stunning next to Xian's dark-toned suit.
Coleen Garcia and Billy Crawford
This husband and wife team always looks hot while at the glitziest red carpet events. Check out Billy's printed jacket (a style staple of his) and Coleen's figure-hugging metallic number to see what we mean.

When you have a body like Coleen's, you'd be proud of it, too! The actress and business owner's physique was definitely a highlight of last year's red carpet moments.
Alex Gonzaga and Mikee Morada
Alex Gonzaga's fans gobbled up any media they could find showing her and her boyfriend Mikee Morada sharing a moment or two at the ball. That's because the comedienne and YouTube star very rarely breaks character and for her to take a break from her jokes and slapstick comedy to be sweet with Mikee fans knew it would be something to witness!

Alex's outfit is certainly worth mentioning too. Those playful pink fringes and column silhouette were absolutely a godsend for her trim figure.
Judy Ann Santos and Ryan Agoncillo
It's always heartwarming to see couples who have matured together and experienced so many of life's different experiences together remain as sweet as ever. Enter, Judy Ann and Ryan, her hubby of 10 beautiful years, who showed everyone the faces of true love.
Robin and Mariel Padilla
As Mariel prepares for the birth of her second daughter, Gabriela, there's a chance that she and Robin might skip this year's ball to fulfill parent duties. In case that happens, we'll be happy to admire this photo of them from last year that shows just how in love they are with each other. How can you not smile when you see a photo like this?
Doctors Vicki Belo and Hayden Kho
The only thing missing from this picture is Scarlet Snow, otherwise, Doctors Vicki Belo and Hayden Kho were a pretty sight to see, indeed! Known for always being well-dressed and decked out in luxury, this pair didn't disappoint.
Kylie Padilla and Aljur Abrenica
This married couple, Kylie Padilla and Aljur Abrenica, took a photo in their home, wearing their ABS-CBN Ball ensembles. They are the epitome of a happy husband and wife tandem. Kylie is pregnant with their second child; it'll be nice to see how she'll dress up her bump! One thing's for sure, though, she'll be one radiant preggy!
Sarah Lahbati and Richard Gutierrez
When we're talking beauty and flawlessness, Sarah Lahbati and Richard Gutierrez always come to mind. Their chiseled faces and style choices make them a complete package of showbiz perfection.

What outfit will Sarah wow with this time? Her Halpern Studio mini dress last year made us think of 1970s glam and was a brave choice given the trend of floor-length dresses at the ball.
