If you're planning to have a beach wedding, Crimson Resort and Spa Mactan's white sand beach would be a very ideal place to say your I DOs. I highly suggest an afternoon wedding wherein you could end the celebration by flying thousands of night sky lanterns.

I have been to Crimson Resort and Spa Mactan only once when I attended a wedding, but the beauty of the place surely left its mark in my memory. Given a chance, I would bring my wife with me next time and probably spend our second honeymoon there (or hopefully our renewal of vows.)
