And so after very traditional Chinese-style engagement ceremony earlier this year, they
wed with family and friends in attendance at the San Sebastian Church
in Manila in November. The bride was dazzling in a Francis Libiran wedding
gown. Erik for his part was on Cloud Nine because he wanted very much to begin
life as a family man. Since he was 29, when he started the Temple, he built a
name in the nightclub circuit and went on to launch the famous Valkyrie Club as
the first of six happy destinations at nightfall of the colossal Palace.
Nancy Cua, the Pho Hoa restaurateur and mother of the groom, was very happy to see her second son finally settle down. For his wedding, she left him to freely find several principal sponsors like Tessie Coson of SM and BDO as well as Andrew Tan of Mega World.
A very special
fairytale wedding ceremony witnessed only by very close family members and truly
selected friends took place in Boracay. Both Erik and Jam happened to share a love
for the romance of the sea. The final grand wedding banquet unfolded on a very
auspicious day, November 25, at the Makati Shangrila.
The happy newlyweds
will make their home in Forbes Park. Their love nest and mansion is still being
renovated.
Jam, the
daughter of Johnny Chan and Imelda Chan, has gone back to helping her family in
the Osram lighting business. Erik, the son of Mariano Cua and Nancy Cua, has resumed
his hectic planning and pursuit of his future projects. Their honeymoon will
just have to wait for now.
