Celebrity doctors Vicki Belo and Hayden Kho’s nuptials will definitely go down in history as one of the most memorable weddings in Philippine show business.

Aside from the couple’s colorful love story, not to mention Vicki and Hayden’s 24-year age gap, the two celebrated their union with an extravagant wedding in Paris, France over the weekend.

On Sunday, September 3, the two exchanged vows at The American Church in Paris.

A lavish reception then followed at the grand opera house, Palais Garnier – the inspiration for the musical play Phantom of the Opera. Michael, who was present at the venue, said that the venue closed for two days just for this event.

To make their first dance as a married couple extra special, Vicki and Hayden danced to their own recording of Jekyll and Hyde’s Take Me As I Am.

Throughout the night, the newlyweds, together with their guests, enjoyed dancing to the music played by a live band.

The night prior to the wedding and reception, Vicki and Hayden hosted a river-cruise dinner rehearsal for their guests, on board the Pavillon Seine, where people could enjoy a good view of the famed Eiffel Tower.

Sometime during their weeklong stay abroad, Vicki also gave a tour of their equally luxurious hotel room on Instagram – the historical room of French fashion mogul Coco Chanel at the 5-star hotel Ritz Paris. According to their website, a one-night stay in Coco Chanel’s room costs at least 18,000 EUR or an estimated 1.1 million PHP.
