"You are my home. You are my happiness..."

This was part of Shalani Soledad's wedding vow, which she recited late this afternoon, January 22, at the St. Benedict's Church in Ayala Westgrove, Sta. Rosa, Laguna.

For his part, the groom told his bride, "I waited 44 years before God gave me this favor..."

And with some 500 guests as witnesses, Shalani Soledad was officially pronounced wife of Congressman Roman Romulo at around 6:45 p.m.

One of the highlights of the ceremony, which began a little past 5:30 p.m., was the homily of His Eminence Cardinal Gaudencio Rosales.

Cardinal Rosales stressed that it was love that brought the couple together, and not "economic welfare" or "political status."

He also advised the couple to be "kind," "patient," "understanding," "not to be jealous," and "do what God calls you to do."

SIDELIGHTS. The wedding was the first time Shalani saw her father, Adolfo Aguirre, and her mother, Evelyn Soledad-Yumol, together.

But the bride walked down the aisle alone.

The background music, "If It's Love," "Fields of Gold," and "Just The Way You Are," was sang by Gail Blanco.

Celebrities in attendance were Senator Bong Revilla and wife Lani Mercado, Richard Gomez and wife Lucy Torres, Mariel Rodriguez, Migz Zubiri and wife Audrey, Valerie Concepcion, Marco Alcaraz and girlfriend Lara Quigaman.

Reception was held at the Evoliving Center Dockside in Nuvali, Sta. Rosa, Laguna.
