EVENTS MANAGEMENT
“We work with a personal touch.
Everything we do for the clients, we
don’t treat as ‘work’, but endeavors we
just enjoy doing.”
Ms. Cielo Geronimo, and business partners
Jackie Medina and Vet Lauzon, make
cherished moments out of every wedding.
Blessing in Disguise
“I prayed for this..” recalls Ms. Cielo. Back then,
she was already into wedding souvenirs; baking
goodies or, for her own wedding, making candles
for guests. Her penchant for getting into detail and
taking difficult tasks caught the eye of her sisterin-law, who was then preparing for her wedding.
“She asked me if I could try fascilitating things for
her and I said yes.” Armed with imagination and
her own experience to base from, her first major
task concerned suppliers. Her friendly demeanor
and panache won over, suppliers were impressed
with how she handled things that, to her surprise,
they started recommending her for other weddings.
“My sister-in-law’s wedding was still months away,
and so I was able to offer my services to five more
weddings even before my supposedly first stint.”
She still remembers asking the Lord for something
she can truly be proud of. And thus, Cherished
Moments began.
Service Deluxe
Six years into the business of creating moments
to cherish and still, the people she gets are strictly
those she knows very well. Starting with a trusted
classmate, a dependable sibling and a husband
whose driving skills come in handy – they formed a
team that couples would learn to rely on.
To keep clients happy, Ms. Cielo shares four traits
essential to their success:
Love of work. “Sometimes, it can be hard to please
a particular couple. They may demand more than
what is required of us. What keeps us going is our
love for our work. We do these things, because we
want to.”

Four essential traits --“Love of
work, dedication, being responsible
and trust-worthy”
Dedication. “I remember a foreign client who
was not able to provide the papers that I was just
suppose to compile for them. The wedding was
days away, and so I had to work round the clock,
talk with the right people and pray a lot. It was a
very tedious week but we delivered.”
Being responsible and trust-worthy. “Because we
assist in more than one way, we sometimes find
ourselves trusted with the most valuable items
– gowns, rings – things that cost more than our
professional fees. We pride ourselves with being
able to take good care of these items. That’s why
I only get people who I know on a personal level. ”
To manage tasks efficiently, tasks are divided into
roles: Bridal Manager, Technical Director, Church
Coordinator, Reception Coordinator and Ushers.
Ms. Cielo makes sure each and everybody
experiences each role. Hence, her staff are wellrounded, they can deal with things on their own if
the need arises. Truly, service deluxe – superior
and competent.
“Whether you are having a simple occasion or a
grand one, one thing for sure is you will be spending
hard-earned money. So it is important that you
get the right suppliers and be able to organize the
many details that go into a wedding. Sometimes,
couples would put a coordinator last. But, actually,
coordinators should be first on the list. We make
sure you get your dream wedding within your
budget.”
