Gilbert and Fely Joy Paz Ynclino did not have a lot of money, but in their wish to get married, they sought the help of their family members who readily pitched in to help. The bride and groom got married in borrowed clothes, while the entourage bought their own outfits.

A number of family members also volunteered to help in the wedding preparations, cleaning and decorating the couple’s home, cooking the food, and pitching in to help in any way they could.

Gilbert’s brother who works as assistant for photographer Michael See Apeles of Wowenkho Studios promised to sponsor the wedding photography.

The wedding was simple – the couple didn’t even have a honeymoon getaway, but their photos would melt hearts on the internet.

Apeles shared some of the photos he took for the wedding. He even included standard wedding photo poses, including pictures of the bride and the groom as they prepared for the ceremony, photos of the wedding symbols, and even the preparations for the wedding reception happening at the couple’s small yard.

He later wrote on Facebook as he shared some of the wedding photos:

“Maya't maya may makikita tayong pinopost na bonggang kasal na maraming palamuti, makukulay na bulaklak, magagarang suot, magandang tanawin, atbp. Ika nga, yung tipong halatang pinagkagastusan nang todo.

Para sa photographer ng ganung klaseng mga kasalan, tila madaling itutok ang camera sa mga bagay-bagay kasi parang lahat na lang maganda sa kuha.

Pero mas naniniwala ako na nasa photographer na rin kung paano magiging maganda yung kuha kahit saan man ang kasal. Kahit hindi man sa hotel ganapin yung preparation, makakahanap pa rin ng ganda sa kahit anumang sulok man yan. Basta't lagyan ng kaunting diskarte, hanapin ang magandang anggulo, hintayin ang tamang sandali, at siguraduhin ang maayos na timpla.”
