Jennylyn Mercado Is Allergic To Flowers, So The Event Stylist Removed The Pollen!

Jennylyn Mercado and Dennis Trillo aren’t really fond of big events. That’s why they opted for a low-key civil wedding ceremony.

On November 15, 2021, the Kapuso power couple surprised their fans as their intimate wedding made headlines.

The couple’s strictly-friends-and-family event was held at Kathryn Bernardo’s TGIS Studio in Quezon City.

In the vlog they uploaded on November 20, 2021, Dennis and Jennylyn said they wanted a no-fuss, no-frills wedding but the kind that would bring good memories years from now.

Dennis said, "Actually simpleng-simple lang naman talaga yung wedding. Medyo matagal lang talaga yung preparations."

Jennylyn later added, "Actually, wala naman kami plano na ganun. Gusto lang namin ng remembrance sa civil wedding namin."

All the details of Jennylyn and Dennis' wedding

Jennylyn kept her accessories to a minimum, wearing only a pair of diamond earrings from Love Rocks Jewelry. Jennylyn also wore a pair of Amina Muaddi Rosie glass slingback heels.

Her hairstylist Bianca Anne Vergara created those loose waves on Jennylyn’s hair.

Dennis matched Jennylyn’s bridal look with his all-white suit designed by Edwin Tan. Both Dennis and Jennylyn were styled by AJ Alberto and Christopher Ian Vinarao.

Dennis got Jennylyn’s diamond engagement ring from Radiant Jewelry by Happy Marnique and Alyana Asistio. Sep Vergara customized the couple’s wedding rings: an eternity ring with emerald cut diamonds for the bride and a plain ring for the groom, both set in platinum.

The couple’s wedding ceremony lasted for about an hour at the gazebo area of TGIS Studio.

The couple invited only their closest friends and family members.

Alex Jazz is Jennylyn's son with former boyfriend Patrick Garcia, while Calix is Dennis' son with former partner Carlene Aguilar.

Jennylyn’s manager Becky Aguila and her daughter Katrina also attended the couple’s wedding. In a Facebook post, Katrina recalled her mom’s touching moment with Jennylyn, whom Becky considers as her “panganay.”

Katrina wrote, "It was the first time I saw @becky_aguila cry after such a long time. Sabi nga niya nung papunta kami sa venue, 'Kat alalayan mo ko, hindi ko alam kung anong mangyayari once I see Jen.'

“She was very nervous and happy because her panganay was finally getting married and is about to be a mom again."@mercadojenny will always have a special place in ma’s heart. Like what ma said on our way home, 'Kat hindi ko napigilang hindi umiyak…anak ko yan, eh.'

“Jen deserves the world, and I am happy that she is getting the family she hoped and prayed for.”

Jennylyn thanked Gary for going the extra mile in removing the pollen from the flowers since she’s allergic to it.

Jennylyn said in their vlog, "Kasi allergic po ako sa bulaklak, so yung effort niya na tanggalin ang bawat pollen ng bulaklak, e, ang hirap po nun kasi napakaraming bulaklak na nandun. So talagang tinaggalan niya lahat... Na-appreciate po namin yun, thank you."

They had another cake from Doughmestic Botanicakes, which the couple used for their baby’s gender reveal, held during their wedding reception. Guests also enjoyed desserts from Kuya Crepes. Drinks were provided by Manila Craft.
