WATCH: Karel Marquez' spoken word pre-wedding film will make you believe in forever

WATCH: Karel Marquez' spoken word pre-wedding film will make you believe in forever

This refreshingly unique take on pre-nup films will make you believe in forever

The pre-wedding film of actress/singer Karel Marquez with fiancé, Sean Fariñas has been going viral on social media and watching the first few seconds of it, one can easily why.

It begins with dreamy shots coupled with Karel’s breathy voice reciting a moving Tagalog spoken word piece called “Nagsimula”. Then it backtracks to a time before they met, telling their love story in a non-linear way.

Created in collaboration with Treehouse Story, it’s the first of two pre-wedding films. You can watch it below.

Karel and Sean got engaged in May 2016. Sean got down on one knee on a boat in Negros Oriental.

Now that I have told my family and friends… I guess I could breathe now (I cried so much during sunset) and I guess we are going to tell this to the universe of course…. ???????????? WE GOT ENGAGED TODAY. ????????‍????‍????‍????????

The couple have been together for five years.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for the greetings, everyone. ????☺️ May. 6, 2016 ????????

Karel has two kids–aged 6 and 5–from a previous relationship; Sean treats the two kids as his own.

It’s our kids’ first time at the happiest place on Earth… Here we come, Disneyland! Good morning!!! ????????‍????‍????‍????????
