Old Manila Churches For Weddings

Weddings have always been important events and it is not surprising that weddings nowadays require careful planning. Aside from the other wedding details such as the catering, the wedding attires, flowers, and such, one of the first things a couple needs to decide on is where to have their wedding.

For a predominantly Catholic country like the Philippines, churches are the default wedding venues.

For those who live in Manila, there are numerous beautiful churches to choose from. Because of Manila’s old churches, this city is a popular destination for those who prefer to have their wedding in an old Catholic church.






Below are just a few of the old churches in Manila that are popularly used as wedding venues.


  • Manila Cathedral. This church is known for being the seat of the Archdiocese of Manila. With its beautiful, intricately-designed façade and simple yet regal interiors, Manila Cathedral is a favorite especially among the weddings of those in the upper class society.




  • San Agustin Church. One of two remaining Catholic churches inside the Intramuros, the San Agustin Church is among the oldest stone churches in the country. With the intricate paintings on its ceiling and its radiant chandeliers, the San Agustin Church is often chosen for weddings not just because of its importance in the country’s history but also largely for its magnificent interiors.
  • San Sebastian Church. This Catholic Church is unique because it is the only church in the country and in Asia that is all-steel. This distinguishing characteristic has made the San Sebastian church in the Quiapo area one of the favorite churches for weddings.
  • Binondo Church. Right smack inside Manila’s Chinatown, the Binondo Church continues to be among the most beautiful churches in the country. Its interior, with the painted ceilings, has been likened to that of the St. Peter’s Dome.
  • St. Pancratius Chapel. For those who are looking for a relatively small old Catholic Church, the St. Pancratius Chapel is a good bet. The church can only hold around 70 people but its surrounding area is spacious and refreshing with its garden and even a fountain in the middle.
