HILTON Manila Newport World Resorts successfully concluded its fifth annual “Ever After” bridal fair held on July 12 and 13. This year’s theme, “A Love Like Ours,” brought together soon-to-wed couples, premier wedding creatives and industry leaders for a two-day celebration that reimagined the bridal fair experience, placing authentic love stories and meaningful connections at its core.
Far from the conventional showcase, “Ever After: A Love Like Ours” offered an immersive and emotionally rich journey. The highlight of the weekend was the testimonial dinner, an intimate evening, where real Hilton Manila Newport World Resorts couples returned to share their wedding journeys. Through heartfelt storytelling, poetry readings and a moving short film, guests were invited to witness love not just as a concept, but as a lived, cherished experience.

“We didn’t want to host just another bridal fair. We wanted to create a space where love could be felt, seen and celebrated in its truest form,” said Gagan Talwar, general manager of Hilton Manila Newport World Resorts.
Throughout the fair, guests explored a thoughtfully curated exhibition of the country’s most sought-after wedding suppliers. Highlights included a trunk show by renowned designer Francis Libiran, interactive sessions with industry experts and a sustainable menu tasting led by executive chef Lord Bayaban.
