Cristalle and Justin are set to hold a grand wedding in Como, Italy, on September 15.

But according to Cristalle's cousin Stephanie Henares, the couple decided to hold a civil wedding in Manila in honor of the bride's 92-year-old granddad who couldn't make it in Italy.

 

@cristallebelo is one of the kindest and most selfless souls. She held her civil wedding today, in honor of our granddad who couldn't make it to her big day in Italy. I am so glad she found the one who will treat her with kindness, fill her with happiness, and brim her over with the love she truly deserves. Congratulations, Pitts! #pittureperfect
