E. Dove Release

MC: The next part of the program, the bride and groom will now do the dove release. Let me call on one
of the groomsmen, Mr. Franz Nino Ditaonon to officiate the dove.

MC: The two doves signify Wellard and Maricar being released to start a new journey together. Like the
two pairs of dove, whatever happens they will always try to seek the comfort of each other and their
home together. This is where they know that they will find love. A dove always chooses one mate for
life, and signifies love, faithfulness, joy and hope.

(Instructions: While Newlyweds comes forward and prepare for the dove release, background music
starts playing...)
Wellard and Maricar are now ready so we will now release the doves. At the count of three, release the
doves. Ready when you are...one...two... three and off... they go!!! That was really beautiful.

MC: Thank you so much Nino.

F. Well Wishes From Family and Friends

Family has been our source of comfort, support and inspirations. Tibor and Maricel are truly blessed
with such wonderful family and friends. When it comes to knowing what marriage is all about, in behalf
of bride's family, may I call on Mr. Teodoro Ditaonon and Mrs. Valentina De Chavez, the father and
mother of the bride to say a few words of wisdom to our newlyweds

MC: Thank you so much for that inspiring message.

And now, we would like to call on the groom’s parents Mr. Noel Bautista and Mrs. Ande Bautista

Note: all the sponsors will give their wishes.

MC: Thank you so much.
