8th Kasalan sa SM, a heartwarming mass wedding, is held at the Shrine of Jesus
the Way, the Truth and the Life Church in Pasay City. |
 |
| In
honor of SM Group matriarch Felicidad Sy, known as Nanang, Kasalan sa SM has
brought faith and matrimony to communities for nearly a decade. |
The success of the event wouldn't have been possible without the
generous contributions of Kultura's Barong Filipino and Berches Barong, who
provided Barong Tagalogs for all the grooms. Goldilocks also played a key role
by sponsoring the 16 wedding cakes, and Gandang Ricky Reyes ensured a memorable
experience for the brides with their hair and makeup services. Their support
made the day truly special for the couples and their families.

Nanang's vision extends beyond weddings. She champions numerous
religious activities, including the operation of masses and the
restoration/upkeep of churches and shrines within and near SM Malls. These
initiatives provide accessible places of worship for Catholic mall-goers and
the communities SM serves.
