The veil, made of pure silk tulle, was 10 meters long. Several assistants were needed to arrange it on the bride's head. Charcoal-gray pearls and flowerettes of silk organza adorned Charlene's hair. Tamen Encendencia did her make-up.

The wedding dress, designed by Joe Salazar, was an off-white, off-the-shoulder, princess-cut gown made of gazar, which the designer had bought in New York. Silk petals with seed pearls, boa tip feathers, and Swarovski rhinestones embellished Salazar's creation. The bridal bouquet of bell-shaped lilies of the valley came from Germany.

The couple's wedding cake reportedly took seven months to make and had to be loaded onto a truck to be delivered to Baguio. The gastronomic masterpiece was designed by Charlene's mom Elvie, who runs Elvie's, a specialty shop for cakes.
