Mr. and Mrs. Ronald C. Oque (nee Rochelyn B. Balamad)

 “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” (1 Corinthians 13:13)

This biblical message has been the guiding light in the relationship between Rochelyn and Ronald, a relationship so nurtured that brought the two to marriage. 

Rochelyn and Ronald first met on December 23, 2017 through a common friend. They then started dating and Ronald never doubted his decision to win the love of Rochelyn. 

After three (3) years of knowing each other better each day, they made true their dream to live as husband and wife for the rest of their life.

Ronald and Rochelyn were supposed to tie the knot on April 25, 2020, but due to the pandemic, the event was postponed. 

With the blessing of their parents, Ronald and Rochelyn finally marched on the aisle on December 19, 2020 at the United Church of Christ in the Philippines, Poblacion Norte, Carmen, Bohol with Rev. Abner D. Vallente as the officiating minister.

The bride is Rochelyn Balili – Balamad who works at the Accounting Department of Ashira Properties Development Corporation (APDC). She is from Carmen, Bohol and is the daughter of Tomas & Epifania B. Balamad. 

The groom is Ronald Clavite Oque, a businessman from Carmen town. He is the son of Ernesto and Narcisa Oque.
