Mae Macaranas in a civil wedding held recently at the Branch 5 of the Davao City Hall of Justice.
Judge Daydews Villamor conducted the short but memorable event held despite the brownout.
The principal sponsors were First District Congressman Karlo Nograles, Sanman Promotions Chief Finance Officer Dexter ?Wangyu?Tan and his wife Maria Elvira ?Tata? Ng-Tan, Allan Calibo, Emily Calibo, Pedro Polangcos, Rose Murray and sportswriter Lito delos Reyes.
John Vincent is the son of former GMA Super Radyo technician Edwin and lady boxing coach Erlinda while Karen Mae is the daughter of Nolito and Glevina Macaranas.
They already have a 5-year old boy Prince Kaiden Matthew and Karen Mae is now 5-month pregnant.
Also present during the wedding were Sanman Promotions manager John Ray Manangquil and fellow boxers Romero ?Ruthless? Duno and Reymart ?Assassin? Gaballo.
?I wish them all the best and may they continue to love each other forever,?said Ng-Tan.
Moralde?s former teacher-coach Pedro Polangcos said: ?I?m very happy on what is happening now on Moralde?s life and with his boxing career.?
Moralde, 21, recently captured the WBF International featherweight crown via a convincing unanimous decision over Anthony ?Zorro? Sabalde of Cebu to remain undefeated with 15 straight wins against no loss or draw.
