Both her mother and her father walked Sharmaine down the aisle to meet her groom. When the groom saw his bride, his jaw literally dropped. What a beautiful moment.<\/p>\n<p>The ceremony followed Filipino tradition with a veil ceremony and cord ceremony. For the veil ceremony, a veil is draped over the bride and groom to remind them that Christ covers them in love. A cord is then twisted into a figure 8 and placed over their heads to symbolize the infinite nature of their marriage. The couple also performed a unity tree ceremony in which the bride and groom poured water onto a tree to watch their love grow. Lastly, the mother of the groom sang a mother\u2019s prayer.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Sharmaine-and-William-wedding-for-vendors-0061.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-7319\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Sharmaine-and-William-wedding-for-vendors-0061.jpg\" alt=\"View More: http:\/\/laurenjean.pass.us\/sharmaine-and-william-final\" width=\"495\" height=\"329\" \/><\/a>\n<p>The reception table included a sign-in book and photos of the couple and their loved ones.
