In her recent guest appearance on Mars Pa More, Dionne talked about her beautiful wedding dress.

“Kasi 'di ba tayo sa wedding traditions natin meron tayong something blue, something old, something new?

“'Yung something old ko was actually the bottom part of my dress, 'yung skirt.

“Gift 'yon from my sister. So, I didn't spend for that.

“Ang pinaggastusan ko lang 'yung corset top lang, which is P300, brand new 'yon ah.

“Magaling ako maghanap ng mga deals.

“Ano lang 'yon, online shop.”

"'Yan 'yung isa sa mga bagay kung bakit gustong-gusto ako ng mga parents-in-law ko kasi matipid daw ako.”

During the said Mars Pa More episode, Dionne also took hosts Iya Villania and Camille Prats and fellow celebrity guest Tuesday Vargas on a virtual tour of Switzerland.

Dionne said that Switzerland is a relatively small country with a population of about 9 million people and one can explore the whole country in about four days.

She also said, “If you like mga mountains or lakes or rivers, this is the place to be. All very nature.”

Dionne showed videos of their visits to different scenic spots in Switzerland, such as the Oeschinen Lake, where she made her first walk on a frozen lake.

She also shared videos of their trekking adventure at Creux du Van, a natural rocky cirque or amphitheater-like valley near the French border.

She warned, “Kailangan mong mag-prepare if you want to do this hike kasi pagkatapos nito pagod na pagod ako. Tapos siguro mga two days straight nasa kama lang ako.”

The newlywed actress also gave a glimpse of their tour of the Aare River in Bern and her unique spa bonding with her husband.
