News recently surfaced about action star Robin Padilla and TV host Mariel Rodriguez exchanging vows twice - a traditional Baguio wedding ceremony and one officiated by a pastor – last Monday, Sept. 13.
Based on said reports, Robin and Mariel wore ethnic attires during their Ibaloi wedding ceremony held at the compound of the Carino family in Camp 7, Baguio City. A mambunong (native Ibaloi priest), identified as Jimmy Ong, officiated their first wedding ceremony, which lasted for an hour-and-a-half. Only a handful of guests were present at the wedding, including Robin’s son, Ali.
As part of the ethnic wedding ceremony, the newlywed celebrity couple drank tapuy (rice wine) as a symbol of their love. Later, Robin and Mariel performed the tayaw dance, to show the public that they are now husband and wife. A pig was offered and its blood was smeared on the face of the newlywed couple.
After their Ibaloi wedding, the two again exchanged vows in a wedding ceremony officiated by a pastor. As of press time, no details about the second wedding were available.
Robin, a known Muslim convert, said that the reason why he chose to tie the knot in an Ibaloi wedding ceremony is because his mother, Eva Carino, is an Igorot.
A report from Philippine Entertainment Portal published today posted a statement by Robin sent through his manager, Bethcay Vidanes. The message reads, “Ang mga naganap sa lupa ng mga Cariño sa Baguio ay isa lamang sa mga nagaganap na yugto sa aming pag-ibig at sa nalapit na programa sa ABS-CBN. Walang dapat ipangamba ang mga kapatiran, kababayan at katribo sapagkat ang pagsunod namin ay sa Islam, ang pagpupugay namin ay sa Kristiyanismo at ang pakikiisa namin ay sa kultura at tradisyong Pilipino (sic).”
Mariel Rodriguez’s camp has not aired any statement regarding their wedding. Mariel’ manager, Boy Abunda, said in an interview that he was also surprised about the wedding news.
