WEDDING CELEBRATION

John and Joan spent their high school days at Holy Spirit School, Tagbilaran. Upon seeing Joan for the first time, John was definite that he would spend the rest of his life with this lady.

After months of courtship, John officially asked Joan to be his girlfriend on November 10, 2015. Not long enough, they decided to have their civil wedding rites on December 20, 2019. Four years after, they 

had their church wedding and that was last January 25, 2023. The church ceremonies started at 3:00 in the afternoon at the St. Joseph’s Cathedral  with the mass officiated by Msgr. Jeff Malanog.

Our bride is Joan Karen Bayocot from Booy District, Tagbilaran City, Bohol. Right now, she is already based in Scotland, South Dakota, United States of America. The bride is the daughter of Reynaldo Bayocot and Bernardita Bayocot and as a Registered Nurse, she works at the Avera Hospital in Scotland.

Her groom is John Mario Tabaco from Cogon District, Tagbilaran City. He is the son of Engr. Liborio Tabaco Jr. and Mrs. Alma Tabaco. John is an Assistant Manager of Task Us.

After the church rites, the wedding banquet was held at the Mithi Garden Square of Mithi Resort & Spa.
