SINGER KZ Tandingan has finally opened up about her wedding with fellow artist TJ Monterde, which was revealed via a music video released Thursday night.
The song, “Can’t Wait to Say I Do,” is about exchanging vows and starting “the rest of our lives.”
In an Instagram post, Tandingan shared some details of their “symbolic wedding,” which was held in Batangas.
“God finally made our ‘puhon’ a reality,” wrote Tandingan. In Cebuano, the word “puhon” means “hopefully, in God’s time” or “God-willing.”
“With only a handful of people and our families attending through Zoom, we held our symbolic wedding under a 300 hundred-year-old mango tree,” she added.
Due to the pandemic, Tandingan admitted she walked down the aisle on her wedding day without her parents, who are in Mindanao.
“We didn’t think we could get married this year because our families are in Mindanao and couldn’t fly in. But our folks being the selfless, understanding, and amazing parents they are, encouraged us to get wed,” Tandingan said.
“Bittersweet getting married without my parents walking me down the aisle, but I’m thankful that my other dad, @martinnievera, stepped in to give me away,” she said.
She then thanked all their friends who underwent tests and isolation just to be with them on their special day.
