According to QC Mayor Joy Belmonte, the event’s first day recorded over 240 pairs from the city’s second district, while the second day recorded over 220 pairs from the first and fourth districts.

Belmonte shared that the local government’s mass wedding initiative aims to address the challenge of some couples in the city who can’t get married due to financial struggles.
