The Ceremony

Order of Service

An Invitation to the Rite

On the afternoon of June 10, 2026, at Narra Hill in Tagaytay, Zoë and George will be married before God and the people who have shaped them. The ceremony is a Christian garden wedding, with a blend of Filipino tradition, worship, and Kenyan heritage — three threads gathered into a single cord.

The rite will be officiated by Pastor Christopher, with the groom's father, Rt. Rev. Moses Gichuru Maina, joining in prayer over the couple. What follows is the full order of service so that you can follow along, sing along, and join in prayer at the moments the couple have set aside for you.

Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
