With the help of SixteenFourteen Events, a Filipino-owned planning and design company, Ashley and Julius curated a celebration that was as intentional as it was vibrant. The couple made it a point to work with a creative team and vendors who shared their cultural roots, ensuring that their wedding was not only a reflection of their love but also a celebration of their Filipino identity.
