Gateway to Northern Mindanao.
ICT Goldmine of the Philippines.
City of White Water Rafting.
City Of Golden Friendship.
Cagayan de Oro City has been called by many names because of its good location, bustling economy, modern telecommunication facilities, abundant natural resources, and warm, hospitable people. Adding another laurel to its list of attributes, Cagayan de Oro (CDO) can also be aptly described as the Wedding Capital of Northern Mindanao.
CDO is one of the host cities of the first Kasalang Filipino 10-city bridal fair caravan in 2003, thereby holding the first-ever wedding fair in the region. It again showcased the best wedding suppliers of the Mindanao region, together with Davao, in the Kasalang Fiilipino 2005 run. And on July 12-15, 2007, the City's local wedding industry will be dressed up to its finest as it represents Northern Mindanao for the third time in Kasalang Filipino 2007 nationwide wedding fair roadshow.
Locally
dubbed "Kasalan sa Kagay-an," the wedding fair
will be held at the Rotonda of Limketkai Mall and will
be opened to the public from 10:00am to 8:00pm.
Aside from showcasing a wide array of wedding supplies,
the wedding fair will also have a photo exhibit of the
notable Philippine Churches in the region.
Ms. Armi Sobremisana of Professional Organizers, Unlimited, the CDO leg's event organizer, shared, "Our main objective in joining Kasalang Filipino 2007 is to promote the creativity and talent of our local wedding suppliers, to-be weds in the Region need not look somewhere else for the best wedding supplies."
Making the event as worthwhile
as possible to its guests, it offers free admission to everybody.
And the first 100 to-be weds to attend the event will get a
special token from the organizers.
There will also be a bridal
make up competition open to both professional and amateur make
up artists. Afterwards, bride-to-bes can learn make up tricks
from the experts at Ever Bilena, the event’s official
make up artist.
Various talks, fora on how
to be financially and legally prepared before getting married
as well as on how to prepare for their new home will be held
all throughout the event dates.
Guest wedding suppliers, on the other hand, can attend the seminar on how to harness the power of the Internet for their wedding business.
The last day will welcome guest speaker known event stylist Henry Pascual, as he presents the art of floral and event styling to Kagayanons. A very special wedding fashion show by CDO's premiere designers will cap the 4-day event.
A grand raffle prize of Standard Appliance showcase awaits the lucky event guest.
Etymologists traced back
the origin of "Cagayan" term from the Proto-Philippine
language.
In this language, "kagay" meant "river"
and "Kagay-an" meant "the place of
the river".
The City of Golden Friendship
is just 1.5hrs by air.
Visit this great city on July 12-15, and experience
the ultimate adventure while planning your wedding:
Go whitewater rafting or explore the underground Macahambus
Cave while brainstorming for wedding ideas. Or do
nature trekking on Mapawa Nature Park and Gardens
of Malasag while finalizing some wedding details.
