Conrad Manila marked its eighth year with the ‘Inspired Beginnings’ Bridal Fair 2024, featuring bridalwear, jewellery brands, hair and make-up teams and more.
Planning a destination wedding? Why not book a getaway to the Philippines where you can tie the knot in style in the elegant setting of Conrad Manila? To celebrate its eighth anniversary, the hotel recently staged a two-day Inspired Beginnings Bridal Fair 2024. In collaboration with Getting Married Wedding Coordinators and Events Planner by Kutchie Zaldarriaga, this year’s event brought together eight top-tier designers and stylists to inspire soon-to-wed couples with a glimpse of their dream wedding.
Day one’s fashion show started with a bang, featuring fashion pioneer Michael Leyva’s haute couture bridal collection, paired with Tiffany & Co jewellery. His inspiration? The soft hues of sunrise and blooming flowers that translated to outfits in premium fabrics, with soft pastel tones and intricate details.

The finale show on the second day featured seven world-class designers Bianca Cordero, Rian Fernandez, Hannah Kong, Ehrran Montoya, Banggo Niu, Joe San Antonio and Ryan Uson and their timeless collections of wedding gowns and suits. The designs tapped into nature’s ever-changing palette, paired with Jewelmer’s exquisite jewellery and chic footwear from Bucroe and Doreen Odvina.
