In a spectacular celebration of artistry, elegance, and creativity, Marriott Bonvoy, Themes & Motifs Bridal Fairs and Wedding Expos, and the Wedding & Portrait Photographers of the Philippines (WPPP) joined forces to launch the very first Marry Me @ Marriott Bridal Fashion Photo Competition. This historic event, held on July 3, 2025, at the Manila Marriott Grand Ballroom, marked the 11th anniversary of Marry Me @ Marriott in breathtaking style. The winners were announced recently at the August 2025 General Membership Meeting of the WPPP.
From the runway’s dramatic moments to the intimate magic behind the scenes, the competition showcased the best of wedding fashion photography. Bogs Ignacio took top honors in the Runway Category, while Mark Octavio of Tynta Creatives shone as the grand winner of the Sidelights Category. Octavio also captured the Marriott Choice Award with his stunning image of Michelle Dee in a crimson Francis Libiran gown, framed by a magnificent Gideon Hermosa backdrop.
