Article (news)

<p><strong></strong><strong></strong>OPM icons <strong>Jessa Zaragoza</strong> and <strong>Dingdong Avanzado </strong>are<strong></strong> celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary, and Dingdong couldn&#x27;t just let that day pass without doing something special. So, he planned a surprise vow renewal event on the exact day of their anniversary, March 18, and successfully pulled off the surprise!</p><p>As the story goes, Jessa thought she was attending an event where she would perform. And because it was a jewelry event, the singer-actress had to wear a white gown to match the brand, the occasion, and the venue. </p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773914928930POV- your husband of 25 years lovingly surprised you with a renewal of vows to celebrate your Si (4).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773914953248POV- your husband of 25 years lovingly surprised you with a renewal of vows to celebrate your Si (6).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773915000968POV- your husband of 25 years lovingly surprised you with a renewal of vows to celebrate your Si (8).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773914941010POV- your husband of 25 years lovingly surprised you with a renewal of vows to celebrate your Si (5).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773916406462POV- your husband of 25 years lovingly surprised you with a renewal of vows to celebrate your Si (1).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><p>But little did the &quot;Phenomenal Diva&quot; know that the event was meant for her. She thought she was going to perform, so she entered the venue, complete with a mic in hand, ready to entertain everyone. But as soon as Jessa stepped into the atrium of <strong>Enderun</strong> in Taguig City, she got the best surprise of her life: her loved ones gathered for an intimate ceremony to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. She immediately saw their daughter, <strong>Jayda</strong>, and her husband, Dingdong, waiting for her on the aisle, and that was when she realized it was no ordinary event. <strong></strong></p><p>The stunning bride couldn&#x27;t help but cry as stylists added a veil to her off-shoulder gown<strong></strong> and got her ready for her momentous and tear-jerking walk down the aisle. </p><p>According to handler <strong>Lynda Yuvienco </strong>of <strong>Cornerstone</strong>, Dingdong planned this surprise for a year. &quot;Yes, for a year,&quot; Lynda shared. &quot;We told her that they had a booking for a jewelry brand that&#x27;s why she has to wear a white gown (Jessa doesn&#x27;t like wearing white), but told her everything was mandated by the client.&quot; Her white outfit was a custom <strong>Fatima Beltran Couture</strong> mermaid gown with intricate draping and delicate lace sleeves.</p><div><strong></strong><strong></strong></div><p>Event coordinator <strong>Rhed Sarmiento</strong>, <strong></strong>Lynda, plus Jessa&#x27;s glam team (makeup artist <strong>Rick Calderon</strong>, hairstylist <strong>Charlie Manapat</strong>, and stylist <strong>Joanna Garcia</strong>) were all accomplices and had to act like the brand event was real to keep Jessa clueless. And it sure seemed like they were great actors because Jessa had no idea what was going to happen. </p><p>This intimate vow renewal was truly one for the books, something that deserves a prime spot in this couple&#x27;s library of memories. </p><div><strong>Keep scrolling for more photos from the event:</strong></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773916417600POV- your husband of 25 years lovingly surprised you with a renewal of vows to celebrate your Si (2).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773916429101POV- your husband of 25 years lovingly surprised you with a renewal of vows to celebrate your Si (10).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773916440822POV- your husband of 25 years lovingly surprised you with a renewal of vows to celebrate your Si (9).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773916740302POV- your husband of 25 years lovingly surprised you with a renewal of vows to celebrate your Si (11).jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-3" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWDPY9Xj37p/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=864&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A3%2C%22os%22%3A15533024.200000001%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-3" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px" spellcheck="false"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-1" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWDEcyEDw_Y/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=864&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A1%2C%22os%22%3A15487392.5%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-1" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><strong>Suppliers:</strong></div><p><strong></strong>Venue: The Atrium at Enderun</p><p>Photo and video: NicePrint Photo</p><p><strong></strong>Event coordinator: <strong></strong>Rhed Sarmiento</p><div><strong></strong></div><p style="text-align:left">Event stylist: Amelia Blooms</p><p style="text-align:left">Live art: Caricature by Krystina Bogus</p><p style="text-align:left">Perfume bar: Parfum Bar By Nhics</p><p style="text-align:left">Food cart: Ay Sauce</p><p style="text-align:left">Cake: Honey Glaze Cakes</p><p style="text-align:left">Invitation: Print Divas</p><div style="text-align:left"><br/></div>
