LJ Reyes is a huge fan of Beauty and the Beast, and while Paolo Contis was the one celebrating his birthday, he made sure to treat the actress like a princess when they caught the film.

Paolo reserved a cinema house all to him, LJ and her son Aki. Waiting on her seat was a letter and a circular box which contained what Belle also requested from her father in the live action movie, a rose. Paolo got LJ an enchanted flower.

 

His letter read, “I know how much you love this film.. And I know Belle is your favorite Disney Princess. So you should watch this film like one. I make sure the whole cinema is yours so no one will distract you.. except me and Aki! Enjoy! I love you, Mahal. Ready na ang tissue. (Love), your Beast.”

 

LJ was more than overwhelmed and refer to that moment as her best movie experience.

She wrote, “I have been so busy the past weeks and I promised you and Aki that this will be your day! That we will celebrate life and God’s blessings and faithfulness today! To my surprise, parang ako pala ang may birthday!”

“When we came up to our seats, saw this beautiful enchanted flower and the letter for me. Sabi pa ni Aki, ‘Bakit tayo lang tao?’ Then I said it’s all to ourselves. Sabi niya this is the  best day! (Plus pogi points ka dun kuya! Happy si Aki,” she also recalled.

The actress also expressed her appreciation to what Paolo did.

She said, “Thank you @paolo_contis for making it special! Buti na lang wala tayong kasama kasi baka sabihin nila may pinagdadaanan ako sa iyak ko! God is soooo good! Alam ko gaano ka nalito sa schedule ko! But He made it possible!”

“It’s an amazing day! It’s a truly blessed day! Ayy oo nga pala, happy birthday Kuya @paolo_contis,” she continued.

 

I think this is the best movie experience I ever had! Months before the release of Beauty and the Beast, I have always been so "kulit" in telling you that we NEED to watch the movie! When Emma Watson got casted as Belle, I couldn't wait! You saw me follow not only her account but the movie's as well!!! Been following the promo of the movie as much as I could! Even seeing enchanted flowers being sold on the other side of the world! I have been so busy the past weeks and I promised you and Aki that this will be your day! That we will celebrate life and God's blessings and faithfulness today! To my surprise, parang AKO PALA ANG MAY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!! When we came up to our seats, saw this beautiful enchanted flower and the letter for me. Sabi pa ni Aki bakit tayo lang tao?! Then I said it's all to ourselves. Sabi nya this is the best day!!!! (Plus pogi points ka dun kuya! Happy si Aki!) thank you @paolo_contis for making it special! Buti nalang wala tayong kasama kasi baka sabihin nila may pinagdadaanan ako sa iyak ko!???????????? God is soooo good!!!! Alam ko gaano ka nalito sa schedule ko! But He made it possible! Masyado na tong mahaba! And masyado ka na rin maraming binigay sakin! Pati @happyskin_ph Beauty and the Beast lippies, you found a way para magkaron ako! It's an amazing day! It's a truly blessed day!!! Ay oo nga pala, HAPPY BIRTHDAY kuya @paolo_contis!!!??? #beautyandthebeast #emmawatson #enchantedrose
