By Our Side

OUR FAMILIES

Roberto Grepo
Father of the Bride

From her dad, Carla got her quick wit and logical streak—a steady mix of reason and humor that’s shaped how she sees the world.

Elnora Grepo
Mother of the Bride

Carla’s mom is the original people person—warm, social, and full of life. As her firstborn, Carla got her energy and gift for connecting with others.

Francesca Monica Galapon
Sister, Matron of Honor

Monique is Carla's ride-or-die and the steady thread that holds the family together. She’s the sounding board and the one who’s always there for family—no questions asked.

Jonathan Elbert Grepo
Brother

The único hijo Jong has grown into a steady and dependable presence at home. He and Carla don’t talk often—but when they do, it’s about the real stuff: their struggles, hopes, and how to get through it all.

Graciella Ysabel Grepo
Sister, Bridesmaid

One of Carla's fondest memories is chaperoning 10-year-old Belle to a Taylor Swift concert in 2010. Fifteen years later, Belle has since diversified her music taste. Carla? Still fully converted to being a serious Swiftie.

Andrei Terentev
Father of the Groom

From his dad, Andrei inherited his love for tinkering and all things mechanical—the quiet curiosity that later shaped his path in engineering.

Lida Terenteva
Mother of the Groom

A teacher who always valued education, she made sure Andrei spoke English well from a young age, setting the foundation for his sharp mind and academic streak.

Nadejda Terenteva
Sister of the Groom

Eugenii Terentev
Brother of the Groom

PRIMARY SPONSORS

We’re deeply honored to have people we look up to stand with us on our day. We admire them for the lives they’ve built—whether through their excellence and integrity in public service or hard-earned success in building businesses—yet they all remain grounded in their love for family. These are the same values we hope to carry into our own marriage and careers. We look forward to their guidance as life mentors.

BRIDESMAIDS AND GROOMSMEN

Monica Galapon
Matron of Honor

Ysabel Grepo
Bridesmaid

Angela Cortez
Bridesmaid

Angela's been in Carla’s Singapore journey from the start—through the highs, lows and everything in between. They bond over long conversations about life and faith, and a shared love of good music, food and wine.

Reyna Bajenting
Bridesmaid

Carla and Reyna met in their early 20s—during an exchange program in England and Mindanao. They haven’t seen each other in years, but they catch up like nothing’s changed. It’s the kind of bond that doesn’t fade.
