In a conservative, Catholic country like the Philippines, getting knocked up before marriage is not always met with parental approval. But pregnancy out of wedlock does happen and it doesn’t always end in a mom raising the child alone.

Although marriage should not be an answer for an unplanned pregnancy, marriage shouldn’t be completely written off as well especially if the couple mutually love each other and both are mature enough to face the financial and emotional responsibilities of parenthood.  Needless to say, the support of the couple’s loved ones spells a huge of difference.

Such was the case in the wedding of Janio & Maan.  They were showered with the love and support of their family and friends during their big day.

It’s also noteworthy that Maan never tried to hide the bump by wearing a ‘maternity’ wedding gown as seen in the photo below.
