During her wedding preparations, Carla wore a simple, sheer white lace dress made of delicate fabric, adorned with subtle floral details, giving the look an almost ethereal quality. Worn with her hair down in soft waves and paired with natural, glowing makeup, the ensemble felt personal and unpretentious—allowing Carla's natural beauty to shine.
For the ceremony itself, Carla transformed into a vision of classic bridal elegance. She wore a structured, white wedding gown with a square neckline, complemented by a long, lace-trimmed veil that added a timeless, romantic touch. The clean lines of the dress highlighted her poise, while the intricate lace details added a softness to the overall look.
Her hair was styled neatly beneath the veil, and her makeup remained fresh and refined, with rosy cheeks, softly defined eyes, and a natural pink lip—striking the perfect balance between tradition and modern restraint. A bouquet of white blooms completed the look, reinforcing the purity and simplicity of her bridal aesthetic.
This wedding marks Carla's second marriage; the actress previously married actor Tom Rodriguez in October 2021, with their divorce finalized in the U.S. in June 2022 and recognized in the Philippine court by June 2024.
