Amid the sea and a setting sun, singer-actress Rachelle Ann Go and American businessman Martin Spies tied the knot in a beach wedding on April 18 at Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort and Spa.
“God is here,” Rachelle posted on Instagram, hours before she exchanged vows with Martin, whom she met in New York more than a year ago through friends. The couple got engaged last September, also in Boracay.
In a previous interview with the Inquirer, Rachelle said she knew she would marry Martin since day one, and that she was grateful to have been blessed by God with “a man who seeks Him first.”
“He has already fulfilled a lot of promises and will fulfill more—we just need to be patient, obey,” she said then.
Intimate affair
Rachelle, who currently plays Eliza Hamilton in the West End production of the acclaimed stage musical “Hamilton,” wore a lace wedding dress designed by her brother, Oz Go.
It was an intimate affair, attended only by the newlyweds’ families and close friends.
Among celebrities spotted were Sarah Geronimo, Kyla, Erik Santos, Mark Bautista and Regine Velasquez, who sang The Carpenters’ “You” during Rachelle’s dance with her father.—ALLAN POLICARPIO
