Naganap na ang kasalang Marco Antonio Alcaraz at Precious Lara Quigaman kanina, July 8, sa Hacienda Isabella sa Indang, Cavite na dinaluhan ng kanilang mga pamilya at kaibigan.

Kasama sa mga principal sponsors sina Senator Juan Miguel Zubiri, Governor Luis El Ray Villafuerte, Vice Governor Deogracias Savellano, Ms. Cory Vidanes ng ABS-CBN, Ms. Lilybeth Rasonable ng GMA-7, at ang manager-kaibigan ni Marco na si Noel Ferrer.

Ang nagpakilala kina Marco at Lara na si Valerie Concepcion ay isa sa mga bridesmaids kasama si Maja Salvador. Kasama naman sa male entourage sina Luis Alandy, Gerald Anderson, Jason Abalos at Quezon City Councilor Alfred Vargas.

Ang wedding/events planning na siyang business ni Lara, kasama ang mga kaibigang sina Ivy Kristin Reyes at manager na si Rowell Octavio, ang namahala ng magandang vintage travel- themed wedding.

Si Veejay Floresca ang gumawa ng wedding gown ni Lara, samantalang si Randy Ortiz naman ang gumawa ng suit ni Marco.

The rest of the wedding credits include: Catering and Styling by Maja Martinez Angeles of Passion Cooks, Entourage Dresses by Veronica Velayo, Cake by Erika Fortunado of Bohemia Cakes, and IGS Cinema as official videographer.

Ang namahala ng wedding ceremony ay ang Without Walls Ministries Pastor na si John Vidal Gay.


WEDDING VOW. Hindi mapigilan ng lahat na maiyak, kasama na dun ang mag-asawa sa ginawa nilang wedding vows—kung saan ibinunyag nina Marco at Lara sa publiko na sila’y magkakaroon na ng anak by November ngayong taon.

Inamin din ni Lara na sila rin ay ikinasal na ni Marco sa isang pribadong civil rites na may spiritual blessing sa Canada noong nagbakasyon sila doon noong 2010.

Heto ang naging madamdaming wedding vow ni Marco kanina na umani ng maraming magagandang reaksyon sa mga nagsidalo:

"Whatever words may come out of me today, Lord, they are just part of what I feel... because I am just so overwhelmed by your goodness and love for having sent me a person like my Jiampong, my Jiamps, my precious one — as my wife.

"I want to walk through my years right beside you Precious Lara as your best friend, your soul mate, your lover... I will be your true partner in every adventure... wherever, whenever, forever...

"God really works in mysterious and sometimes funny ways. Dati, napapanood lang kita sa sitcom na That's my Doc. Ngayon, 'pag nakikita kita, I can now proudly say 'That's my wife!'

"Ironic that I have to experience an injury in basketball for us to meet in show business. Sabi ko sa sarili ko, 'Kapag si Lara ang naging girlfriend ko, titino na ako...

"True enough, salamat naman, minahal mo ako... kahit hindi ako masyadong mayaman, kahit hindi ako masyadong mature katulad ng dati mong boyfriends, at kahit na may itsura ako nang konti sa kanila.

"I thank you Miss Precious Lara Quigaman—for being the most unselfish, generous, loving eprson that I know. I feel more deeply in love with you when I see the way you treat your family, your relatives, and even my family and myself... Thank you for bringing out the best in me... and for showing me the things, and the people that really matter.

    Ang ganda ng theme ng wedding nila. Ang ganda din ng concept nung pre-nup shoot! Great job to the team of Rabbithole Creatives for the pre-nup styling.

    Nakaka-touch naman ang vow ni marco kay lara. Favorite kong part yung, "True enough, salamat naman, minahal mo ako... kahit hindi ako masyadong mayaman, kahit hindi ako masyadong mature katulad ng dati mong boyfriends, at kahit na may itsura ako nang konti sa kanila. Natawa ko sa last part haha! Congratulations and best wishes sa inyong dalawa. True enough na hindi mo kailangan ng asawang kasing yaman ni ylmaz bektas kung hindi ka naman mamahalin at iingatan. I wish you all the best Precious ans Marco!

    It's refreshing to read that there are still decent women in showbiz. Lara's parents raised her well and instilled the right values. Marco is not bad catch either as he is young, goodlooking and seem to have the right outlook and principles in life. Congrats to the newlyweds.

    They are lucky to have each other. They are both in love with each other. Mabuti na yung mag asawa ng lalaking hindi masyadong mayaman na mahal ka kaysa magpakasal ka sa isang prinsesa na binubogbog ka at kinakandado sa closet gaya ni Ruffa, di ba?

    Very True. To marry someone for financial gain will turn sour quickly as in Ruffa's case. LOVE CAN BUY MONEY BUT MONEY CAN'T BUY TRUE LOVE.

    haYYY sayang sana si Lara dahil sa status nya na beauty queen, nag asawa sana ng businessman, mayaman na mabait rin para may pangmaintain ng luho, nng beauty nya kasi practical lang ano...ang ganda nya, beauty queen tapos kay MArco napunta, eh babaero, maghanap lang iba yan tapos di rin man lang maibigay mga needs ni LAra... Just saying , kasi syempre sa hirap ng buhay at sa ganda nya marami syang pagpipilian sana..... well, nainlove nga siguro eto kay MArco kaya haaay naku, sige na nga lang

    Okay ka lang? Parang sobrang inggit at bitter ka! LOL Bakit naman when this young beautiful couple are clearly both genuinely in love with each other. If they both work hard, pwedeng pwede silang yumaman without resorting to disgusting lowly acts. Kudos to Lara dahil hindi siya mukhang pera tulad ng ibang artista who are willing to pros-titute themselves with OLD DIRTY RICH MEN for the sake of money!!! Grossss! Yuck!! When they are no longer fresh and beautiful, ayan sa basura pupulutin ang mga mukhang perang babae.

    septmbersapphire, I feel sorry for you with your twisted mindset about marriage. You will forever live a very sad lonely empty miserable life.

    teh, walang laban ang Mayamang Businessman sa lalaking 9 inches ang kargada. Bihira lang yan sa earth. Kaya ang mga babae, kahit niloloko na minsan, di pa rin umaayaw. Mahirap na kasing makahanap ng ganun eh.

    Bakit naman sayang? eh muka namang mahal na mahal sya ni marco. Remember, money is not everything. Hindi naman kailangang maging bilyonaryo ni marco para mahalin ng isang precious lara quigaman. Napaghahalata sa comment mo na muka kang pera.
