The newlyweds were happily joined by their kids from previous relationships.
When actress Ara Mina and businessman Dave Almarinez exchanged wedding vows in Baguio City on June 30, the couple did not just gain one another as husband and wife, but an instant family made up of children from their past relationships.
Nice Print Photo shared a series of post-wedding photographs showing the newlyweds with their respective kids - Kirsten, Klane, and Mandy.
Kirsten is Dave's daughter from ex-wife Erish, who is currently in the U.S.
Klane, whom Dave treats like his own daughter, is the child of Erish from a previous relationship before Dave.
Mandy, meanwhile, is Ara's daughter with former boyfriend and current Bulakan, Bulacan Vice Mayor Patrick Meneses.
Patrick attended Ara and Dave's wedding at the Alphaland Baguio Mountain Lodges Chapel and even posted a congratulatory greeting on Instagram together with a photo of himself with the newlyweds.
“We hardly ever come across a love that is so unconditional and so committed to each other, transcending the test of time and growing even stronger through trials,” wrote Patrick.
“I am honored to have witnessed such promising love that you both shared during this memorable occasion. Wishing you both the best and a happy ever after!”
Erish, the ex-wife of Dave, was also supposed to attend the wedding but had to beg off because of a medical emergency.
