Actress Lotlot de Leon and long-time partner businessman Fadi El Soury from Lebanon exchanged their vows during a private ceremony last Monday, December 17 at El Jardin de Zaida, San Juan, Batangas.
The wedding occurred “just a month short of their sixth anniversary,” which the gown designer Zandra Lim reveals, describing Lotlot to be, “One of the kindest to have breathed the same air with, I’m awestruck to have discovered that.“
All four of Lotlot’s children were present on the guest list, namely daughters Kapuso actress Janine, Jessica, Maxine, who served as her bridesmaids, and only son Diego. Stepmom Sandy Andolong and brother Ian de Leon were also present.
Lotlot was also walked down the aisle by her adopted father Christopher De Leon, who had the guests tearing up during his speech. “Your happiness is our happiness,” he tells his daughter who he believes to have grown up as “a wonderful and respectful beautiful woman” and “a responsible older sister to [her] siblings in their growing years.” The father-daughter duo also danced to song “Wind Beneath My Wings” during the reception.
The wedding was garden-themed as the venue was dressed in a canopy of trees and rare tropical plants, which was embellished with Amante Fleurs.
Back in 1987, Lotlot married her first husband, Ramon Christopher Gutierrez, whom she had four children with. However, the couple split in 2004 and their marriage was annulled in 2007. In 2012, Lotlot began dating Fadi and the two got engaged earlier this year in July.
