1. The Immaculate Conception Cathedral of Cubao

In the Cubao District of Quezon City, between Lantana and Vancouver streets, the Immaculate Conception Cathedral of Cubao (ICCC) rises above the local residences, proclaiming itself as the seat of the Archdiocese of Cubao. The Immaculate Conception Cathedral of Cubao is also known as “Cubao Cathedral”.

Around the 1940s, the chapel was relocated from its previous location between Spencer and Brooklyn streets to its current location. In 1950, the sanctuary was elevated to parish status after being dedicated to the Immaculate Conception in 1949. However, the modern structure that people are familiar with was constructed in the 1960s, in the modernized Neo-Romanesque style designed by Arch. Arturo M. Maalac (1915-1990). The medieval Romanesque design emerged in Europe between 800 and 1100 A.D. and incorporated elements of ancient Roman architecture, such as Corinthian columns and barrel vault ceilings, into medieval architecture. Arch. Carlos Antonio Santos-Viola (1912-1994) inspired this return to medieval church architecture with the Christ the King Mission Seminary’s castle-like Buttenbruch Building and the Neo-Gothic sanctuaries of the Iglesia ni Cristo.

This is the church where Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes had their wedding. Cubao Cathedral is located at 40 Vancouver, Quezon City that has an Italian-Romanesque style.

Wedding venues near Cubao Cathedral are Obispado de Cubao, Oasis Manila, 38 Valencia, Sampaguita Gardens and Light of Love.

2. Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish

The first OLPH church was a straightforward Brutalist structure with massive walls and basic structural lines. Throughout the tenures of parish priests Cesar B. Pagulayan (1976–1988), Celso J. Ditan (1988–1990), Antonio Benedicto (1990–1992), Roberto C. Canlas (1992–1999), Enrique Aloysius Ma. S. Alino (1999–2006), and Alfonso A. Bugaoan Jr. (2006–present), the OLPH underwent a number of renovations.

Nevertheless, the modern structure that people recognize was constructed in the 1960s, in the modernized Neo-Romanesque style designed by Arch. Arturo M. Maalac (1915-1990). The medieval Romanesque design emerged in Europe between 800 and 1100 A.D., combining medieval architecture with elements of ancient Roman structures, such as Corinthian columns and barrel vault ceilings. Arch. Carlos Antonio Santos-Viola (1912-1994) was inspired by the Christ the King Mission Seminary’s castle-like Buttenbruch Building and the Neo-Gothic sanctuaries of the Iglesia ni Cristo to design this return to medieval church architecture.
