Sarah Lahbati is over the moon.
The bride-to-be and her closest friends just held a bridal shower at the secluded boutique resort Nay Palad Hideaway, formerly Dedon Island Resort, on Siargao.
She called it "paradise."
If you must know, the biggest villa called Perlah, which has its own pool and has three bedrooms, charges per night US$1,690 or PHP85,691.45 (based on current exchange rates), according to rates listed on the resort's website.
In her latest Instagram post, Sarah thanked Ruffa Gutierrez, her sister-in-law, and Alexa Uichico-Gutierrez, the wife of her brother-in-law Elvis Gutierrez, "for organizing this amazinggggg trip, for bringing us all together in paradise & for making each and everyone feel special."
She gushed, "I’m so lucky to have you in my life."
The soon-to-be wife of Richard Gutierrez also thanked those "who joined this trip for making it sooooooo memorable. Glad everyone danced and chilled out."
Designer Boom Sason got a special shout-out for the matching swimsuits worn by Sarah's guests.
Part of her "team bride": (L-R) Maggie Wilson, Maja Salvador, Yanee Nuñez Alvarez, and Mikaela Martinez.
Richard's twin Raymond Gutierrez (L), designer Mark Bumgarner (beside Raymond), and CJ Jaravata were also present.
Sarah said it was "the best experience ever!"
Look at the setup and the seafood feast.
Also in Sarah's Instagram caption, she said, "I think I’ve reached my quota for bachelorettes..."
Sarah and Richard are tying the knot on March 14, 2020.
They got engaged in March 2017, with the majestic Zermatt in Switzerland as their backdrop.
The couple has two kids, Zion and Cai.
