Amanpulo Destination Wedding: Have a Look at the Jens Knüttel and Celine Montalla Nuptials

Have a look at Celine Montalla and Jens Knüttel's dreamy wedding in Amanpulo's Picnic Grove

The bride, Celine Montalla, glowed with the setting sun on the sandy shore of Amanpulo’s Picnic Grove. She struck a radiant picture that left her wedding guests in awe and her groom, Jens Knüttel, teary-eyed. He could not contain himself any longer so much so that while reciting his vows, he added a declaration to all and sundry: “Indeed, I am the luckiest man!”

Such avowal of love mesmerised the guests who stood silent, immersed in the moment. Until Knüttel broke the silence and light-heartedly said, “Well, how about
a round of applause?”

The two have known each other for 11 years, but it was only recently that they decided to tie the knot. But the magical wedding was worth the wait. Floral artist Robert Blancaflor transformed the beach into a picturesque haven enveloped by blooms. The tropical theme was punctuated with coordinated details such as printed parasols, rattan fans and fedora hats, made possible by wedding coordinator Teena Barretto. The entire look was styled by events stylist Jeff Galang.

While getting ready for the wedding, the bride appeared as radiant as ever under the sun with a pair of sunnies, diamonds and a custom tulle prep gown. Then Montalla walked down the aisle in a bespoke Reem Acra dress and crystal-embellished pumps.

Those who travelled to the exclusive idyllic island resort were mostly the couple’s family and close friends. And they were treated to the fulfilling vision of true love that the couple were unable to hide—even if they wanted to. For instance, they were a delight to behold as they danced with gusto during the party, showing off the moves they learnt during the quarantine as Montalla mentioned in a video titled, 73 Questions.

The beautiful occasion that radiates lasting love gives a prelude to a bright future for the couple. For certain, they will be playing and replaying their wedding video to reminisce the memorable event in the years to come.
