Prado

Prado is the one to take if you want the trees in the photographs. It is the widest lawn on the estate at 500 square metres, flat, held under old spreading branches with large white lanterns hung from them. The canopy keeps most of it shaded, which is worth knowing for an afternoon in April.

You are not arranging it single-handed. There is a preparation room on the estate, one property for everybody from the vows onwards, and an ocular visit whenever you want to see how it sits. Prado holds 100 to 200 and starts at PHP 45,000.
