Ito na yung araw na pinakahihintay at pinag-uusapan lang natin dati. Lagi kong sinasabi na parang ang bilis. Hindi dahil hindi tayo dumaan sa tamang proseso, kundi dahil parang kahapon lang nung unang pinagtagpo,” Ka Mangyan began. </p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-6" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DXerTQqGV4f/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=768&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A6%2C%22os%22%3A4739267.399999976%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="889" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-6" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>She fondly recalled how their story began, where she initially thought Julius was destined for a different calling to be a priest. </p><p>“Unang kita ko pa lang sa&#x27;yo, alam ko na agad na magpapari ka. Yung itsura mo, the way kumilos, magsalita at ngumiti. Ilang beses na tayong nagkakasalubong at nagkakangitian sa simbahan hanggang sa isang araw, bigla tayong pinag-partner sa panuluyan bilang Jose at Maria. Grabe yung kulitan non, na pati si Father Patrick na pari sa kasal natin ngayon ay nakikikulit at kinikilig na rin.” </p><p>“Akala ko noon, ikaw yung pari na magkakasal sa akin. Yun pala ikaw mismo yung pakakasalan ko,” she continued.  </p><p>In her vows, Ka Mangyan also expressed gratitude for Julius’s unwavering love and support, especially during her most difficult moments. </p><p>“Ang daming nagsasabi na swerte ka raw sa akin, pero hindi nila alam na mas swerte ako sa&#x27;yo. Hindi nila nakikita kung paano mo ko mahalin sa mga panahong kahit ako nahihirapang mahalin ang sarili ko. Pero ginawa mong madali an lahat. Never mo kong sinukuan at never nawala yung respeto mo sa akin. Araw-araw mo kong minamahal.” </p><div><iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=314&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Freel%2F981562094818713%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=560&amp;t=0" width="560" height="314" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>She then added: “Maliban sa family ko, ikaw yung nandyan lalo na nung mga panahong halos husgahan ako ng buong mundo. Salamat sa pagiging lakas ko sa tuwing nanghihina ako. Salamat sa pagpapasaya tuwing nalulungkot ako. Salamat sa pagsalo ng mga galit ko sa mundo. Salamat kay Lord, dahil sa dinami-dami ng lalaki sa mundo, ikaw yung binigay niya sa akin na sagot sa mga panalangin ko.” </p><p>Ka Mangyan shared her excitement about building a future together, painting a vivid picture of growing old side by side. </p><p>“Excited na akong bumuo ng pamilya kasama ka. Lagi kong sinasabi, excited na akong magkaanak. Hindi dahil gusto ko lang kundi dahil alam ko na meron silang mabuti, maalaga, maka-Diyos, at responsableng ama. Excited na akong makasama ka sa pagtanda, yung tipong namumuti na yung buhok natin, tumawa kahit wala na tayong ngipin, magsigawan dahil hindi na malinaw yung pandinig natin, maglakad kahit rayumahin na tayo. At kahit dumaan ang napakaraming tao, ikaw pa rin yung pipiliin ko araw-araw.</p><p>“Love, I vow to be a good wife to you and a loving mother to our future children. Above all, I vow to always be your kakampi, your partner, your safe place, and the one who stands by your side in everything, today and for the rest of our lives. and a loving mother to our future children. Above all, I vow to always be your kakampi, your partner, your safe place, and the one who stands by your side in everything, today and the rest of our lives. Sa araw na ito, sa harap ng mga taong mahal natin, pinipili kita. Hindi lang ngayon, kundi sa bawat araw na darating. I love you, love,” Ka Mangyan concluded.  </p><div><iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FKaMangyans%2Fposts%2Fpfbid033me1VMRZ3H2tFGJJSiae54ZF3eTTH1fvwuG5fXyftvUtjq6YNTVuEAUZuhCgCqL3l&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="708" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>Julius, for his part, was equally emotional, especially as he watched Ka Mangyan walk down the aisle. In his vows, he looked back on their humble beginnings, drawing parallels between their first meeting and their present moment. </p><p>“Hi love. Mercedes, aking mahal na asawa, sa dami ng pwedeng para para tayo magkakilala, hindi ko inakala na magsisimula ang lahat sa isang panuluyan kung saan ako si Jose at ikaw si Maria. Ang galing no? Unang pasok mo pa lang sa buhay ko, asawa ka na sa kwento nating dalawa.” </p><p>He acknowledged the challenges they faced as a couple, emphasizing how those moments only strengthened their bond. </p><p> “Hindi naging madali ang lahat ng pinagdaanan natin. Dumaan tayo sa pagsubok na akala natin minsan hindi na natin kakayanin. May mga panahong napapagod na tayo, nasasaktan at halos sumuko, pero sa kabila ng lahat pinili pa rin nating manatili. That’s why I truly realized that you’re the one I want to spend my whole life with.” </p><p>Julius went on to thank Ka Mangyan for loving him wholeheartedly and accepting every part of who he is. </p><p>“Thank you for being you, for loving me with a love so genuine and unconditional. Thank you for embracing all of me, my flaws, my imperfections, and every part of me. Kung may isang bagay man akong sinisigurado sa buhay ko, ito ay ang desisyong mahalin ka at habang buhay kong ipagpapasalamat na ikaw ang sagot sa mga panalangin ko. Alam ni Lord yon. Mahal na mahal kita higit pa sa kung anong iniisip mo. Mula ngayon, ikaw at ikaw lang ang mamahalin ko aking asawa, Mercedes Lasac Mantala,” he ended.  </p><p>The celebration was made even more meaningful by the presence of their closest friends, family members, and fellow content creators, who were visibly emotional throughout the ceremony. Among those spotted at the wedding were content creator couple Joel Javier and Katrina Ermino, Lester and Leonida of The Aguinaldos, and celebrity couple Toni Gonzaga and Paul Soriano. </p><p>Netizens also took to social media to express how deeply touched they were by the newlywed’s vows, with many saying they felt as if they had witnessed not just a wedding but the culmination of a love story they had followed for years.</p>
