LOOK: Cai Cortez cries tears of joy on wedding day

It was an emotional day for actress Cai Cortez as she exchanged vows with her boyfriend, Wissem Rkhami. In a particular photo, Cai gently wipes away actual tears as she prepares to walk down the aisle. See the touching moment, here.

It was an emotional day for Cai Cortez  as she prepared to walk down the aisle, and the comedian couldn’t help but shed a few tears of joy right before she entered the chambers where her husband-to-be was waiting for her.

On July 15, Cai and her foreigner boyfriend, Wissem Rkhami, exchanged vows in a civil wedding ceremony officiated by former President and current Manila Mayor Joseph Ejercito Estrada.

The wedding was a simple and intimate affair made special by the presence of Cai’s father, actor Rez Cortez, and the rest of her family.

Cai was dressed in a virginal white flowing dress that cinched her waist nicely, which she paired with a pair of  white, open-toe stiletto sandals. Her hair was styled in a half up-do, and her jewelry kept to a minimum to complement her simple yet elegant attire.

Cai also let her natural beauty shine through as she sported a no-make-up look, which was made dramatic by a touch of dark lip color.

Here are a few photos from the event, which were shared by photographer Francis Perez on social media:

So in love

A Cai and Wissem kind of moment.
