Here are the list of venues I’ve inquired that are near in Shrine of Jesus church for Gwen’s baptism reception venue. Our event day was held on saturday so i was really having a hard time to book for a restaurant that will be exclusively for us. Our expected guests will be 80-100. Friday’s, Gerry’s Grill, Giligans and Seafood Island can offer their resto exclusively but in limited time (3 hours) only and should be done before 6pm since saturday is peak.

• Friday’s – An additional P40 for Iced tea drinks in adult package
• Gerry’s Grill – They can reserve their event area good for 80 guests for 4 hours. All packages are inclusive of bottomless eight o’ clock iced tea or orange juice. and Leche Flan or Buko Pandan.
