Celebrity stylist Kimi Yap ties the knot with longtime boyfriend
Celebrity Stylist Kimi Yap married her long-time boyfriend Jarvis Sy at Santuario de San Jose Parish in Mandaluyong last Saturday, October 13. The reception took place at the Marriott Grand Ballroom at Resorts World Manila in Pasay.
Kimi wore a beaded Michael Cinco gown and went with an apple green motif. Her sister, Boom Yap, was her matron of honor.
On her Instagram, Kimi posted a photo of herself and her noticeably long train walking down the aisle that captions, “My walk to my forever.” Designer Michael Cinco shared on his social media the details of Kimi’s dress as he posted, “The gorgeous bride Kimi Yap weds in a couture 5-meter train Michael Cinco wedding gown with intricate embroideries with Swarovski crystals.”
Kimi’s entourage was indeed star-studded, with Kapamilya actresses Erich Gonzales and Kathryn Bernando being among the bridesmaids, host Kris Aquino a principal sponsor, and Dra. Victoria Belo’s three-year-old daughter Scarlet Snow Belo as one of the flower girls. Julia Barretto, Kaye Abad, Jeron Teng, and Alex Gonzaga were also among the guests. The Voice Philippines’ Jason Dy performed during the reception.
Following an ethereal theme, Kimi and Jarvis’ wedding was decked out with a 12-foot-tall garden-inspired wedding cake, elegant flower arrangements, and a lot of pastels.
Gideon Hermosa, known to provide flower arrangements for celebrity parties, was in charge of executing the earthy theme, while Pat Dy captured the wedding in photos.
Last October 3, Kimi celebrated her bridal shower in collaboration with cosmetics brand La Mer. In her post showing the beautiful shower arrangement embellished with candles prepared, she sent her gratitude saying “Thank you for throwing me such a memorable [shower] that I will never forget!”
Kimi and Jarvis first announced their engagement on social media on April 25, 2017 where Jarvis popped the question during their vacation in the private island Amanpulo located in Palawan. Prior to that, the couple has been together for almost ten years.
