Binibining Pilipinas International 2019 Bea Patricia “Patch” Magtanong has tied the knot with her partner, Joshua Cordoves, although she noted that a separate “big wedding” will be held sometime next year.
Magtanong, who’s also a lawyer, confirmed her marriage to Cordoves on her Instagram account on Monday, June 10, where she shared glimpses of the “simple and intimate” ceremony.
“Thank you for the well wishes everyone!! [emoji] we decided to have a simple and intimate ceremony with just our families first,” she said in the caption.
“We’re excited to celebrate with the rest of our family and friends next year during our big wedding!!! Guess where,” she continued, as she captioned her post with beach-themed emojis, hinting that a beach wedding will take place in 2024.
The beauty queen then shared photos of herself getting cozy with Cordoves, at what seemed to be their pre-nuptial shoot. She captioned her post with “07.07.23,” implying that the intimate wedding took place last July 7.
Miss Grand International 2016 first runner-up Nicole Cordoves, who happens to be the sister of Magtanong’s husband, welcomed the lawyer into their family, as seen in the comments of the latter’s post.
“Welcome to the crazy cordoves fam,” she said.
