Rj & Erica
Our Story
It started in college, the way a lot of good things do — through a mutual friend who had no idea what they were setting in motion. Back then, Erica was still figuring out how to get through school, and Rj quietly became the person who made sure she did. He was her study partner on the hard nights, her pep talk before every exam, and the steady voice reminding her she could do it when she wasn’t so sure herself.
Somewhere between the late-night reviewers and the “you’ve got this” texts, a friendship turned into something that felt a lot like home.
Years later, home looks a little different — and a lot louder. Rj is now a lawyer with the Department of Justice, Erica leads the frontend team at Tangible, and weekends are split between each other’s places with two very opinionated chaperones: Cloud, their white pup who will trade state secrets for a piece of chicken, and Choco, their brown one who treats the entire house as a tasting menu — Rj’s shoes included.
On December 1, 2026, we’re making it official. And we’d love for you to be there.
The Wedding Party
The Venue
Manila Cathedral
We’re saying “I do” at one of the oldest and most beloved churches in the country. Its stone arches and stained glass have witnessed generations of love stories, and we can’t imagine a more meaningful place to begin ours.
Please arrive 30 minutes before the ceremony so we can start on time.
Gino Winery Estate
The celebration continues at Gino Winery Estate — good food, good wine, and hopefully a little dancing. Come hungry, come ready to laugh, and come prepared for a long night of stories with the people we love most.
