4 Days to Go — A Celebration of Artistry, Heritage, and Community
In just a few days, 600 wedding suppliers and service providers nationwide will gather under one roof for ILUSTRADOS: The 12th Philippine Wedding Industry Ball, happening on October 14, 2025 at the Crowne Plaza Manila Galleria, Ortigas.
Hosted by the Philippine Association of Wedding Planners (PAWP), this year’s ball carries the theme ILUSTRADOS, a tribute to our rich cultural heritage. The word evokes a sense of history, elegance, and artistry bringing together the grace of Spanish influence and the warm hospitality that makes Filipino culture truly special. It’s remembering our past and the way they continue to inspire our present.
“ILUSTRADOS is more than a ball — it’s a homecoming,” shares PAWP President Nona Clemente. “It’s our way of honoring those who have paved the way and inspiring those who continue to create meaning through their craft.”
