Love Always Wins
Celebrating love regardless of sex or gender, and fighting for the right of Marriage Equality since 1968, the Metropolitan Community Church has been officiating Holy Unions or Same-Sex Wedding Ceremonies all throughout the world, and in the Philippines through its local chapter – Open Table MCC.

Register for a Holy Union
If you are a same-sex couple / LGBT+ couple and you are not able to legally marry each other due to the laws of the Philippines not having a same-sex or marriage equality law yet, you might be interested to have a ceremonious wedding instead, or a ‘Holy Union’, under Open Table Metropolitan Community Church.
