Cocktails, Dinner and Festivities


We could not be more thrilled that we were able to book Villa Immaculada as our reception venue.

Just a stone’s throw away from San Agustin church, the Villa boasts of its covered and spacious dining hall, high ceilings and exclusive catering service by Tamayo’s. The cocktail/welcoming area gives a garden-like feel with the fountain and the hanging vines, a relaxing preview for the occasion. We have chosen a covered venue because we have observed that since 2002, our wedding date is always a rainy day. Always. No sense in taking a chance with mother nature for one day!

One of the best things about the villa is of course, the rates. As we are working with a budget, we are quite happy that the villa is elegant and spacious, just between the ambiance and cost of a hotel and clubhouse reception.

We should also mention that it was just with a streak of luck that we got this venue. During the 2nd quarter of last year, the villa advised that they would not be available on our wedding date as they have renovations on the place. Just in time (before we reserve other reception venues), the villa was once again available! Cheers to Ate Joan Balistoy for making all the reservations and freebie-haggling with Tamayo’s and Villa Immaculada.
