In an incredibly generous and surprising gesture, a groom astonished his wife with a remarkable Php1 million cash gift on their wedding day, adding an extra layer of specialness to the event.

The video of the surprise, uploaded by their wedding host Lester Dave Verano, has gone viral on social media, accumulating thousands of views and generating mixed reactions from netizens.

In an interview with The Filipino Times, groom John Clavecillas explained that he chose to give his wife Php1 million in cash because he believes in the symbolism of the wedding arrhae, representing “earnest money” or a promise of prosperity.

John also emphasized that the money symbolized his commitment to their marriage. For him, their union wasn’t an impulsive decision, and the cash gift served as a tangible promise of support and love.

As an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) in Australia, John worked tirelessly to save this amount of money. He often worked nearly 14 hours a day, sacrificing sleep to support his parents and save for his future family.

John shared his dedication to fulfilling promises to both his parents and his wife, saving Php1 million to surprise her on their wedding day.

He initially invested the money with a friend in the Philippines working in real estate to grow his savings while waiting for the wedding day. He acknowledged God’s guidance and support throughout this journey.

As they embark on married life, John and his wife Jamaica plan to invest the money in real estate, using the interest as a financial cushion and securing their future children’s well-being.

Despite the overwhelming online response, John and Jamaica didn’t expect their wedding to go viral. John is grateful to inspire others through his grand gesture, which was meant to show his love and commitment to his wife and her family.

However, not everyone was pleased with the gesture. Brushing off these comments, John chooses to focus on the most important aspect—their wedding.
