Kristel Fulgar’s journey to the altar is getting even more special, as her close-knit group of friends recently threw her a surprise bridal shower. The actress and content creator was genuinely touched by the thoughtful celebration organized by her so-called “bride tribe,” which included fellow actress Sue Ramirez.
The intimate yet stylish event saw Kristel being adorned with a veil and a sash that read “bride to be,” making her look every bit the glowing bride. She also held a bouquet of roses as she entered the beautifully decorated venue. The setup was tastefully done, combining white balloons with chic black accents. A centerpiece proudly displayed the words “bride to be,” and the group shared a floral-themed cake with the phrase “Miss to Mrs.” written on it, further adding to the bridal feel.
On Instagram, Kristel shared snippets from the event, showing her surprise and appreciation for her friends’ efforts. In one caption, she expressed her excitement, exclaiming, “Ang pasabog na mga akla!” In a more emotional post, she wrote, “So touching.. di ko to makakalimutan. Thank you sooo much! Love you all.”
The bridal shower comes just a few months after Kristel announced her engagement to South Korean boyfriend Suhyuk Ha. The couple’s love story began when Suhyuk started courting her in early 2024, making frequent trips to the Philippines. Their relationship became official by November 2024, with Kristel announcing it on her YouTube channel.
Fans of the actress were delighted to learn that Suhyuk had converted to Kristel’s religion, a gesture many viewed as a testament to the seriousness of his intentions. Their engagement was officially made public in February 2025, setting off waves of excitement among their supporters.
With the wedding date fast approaching, this surprise bridal shower added a joyful chapter to Kristel’s fairytale romance. The actress continues to be admired not just for her talent but for the grace and authenticity she brings to her milestones. Her fans are eagerly looking forward to her big day, which promises to be as heartfelt and beautiful as the journey leading up to it.
