About Sinta & Co.
About Sinta & Co.
'Sinta' is an old-fashioned Tagalog word for 'love.'
Sinta & Co. was born out of our love for Filipino culture, heritage, and family.
Hello!
We're Gelaine & Jérôme
An entrepreneur couple from Toronto, Canada.
Gelaine is a proud Filipina, born in Bulacan, Philippines and raised in Toronto. Jérôme is a proud Québécois from Quebec in French Canada. When we got married in June 2018, it was important to have a wedding that incorporated both our cultures and family heritage in meaningful ways.
We searched high and low for Filipino wedding resources - scripts in Tagalog, the history and significance of the candle, cord, veil and other Filipino cultural traditions, and bridal accessories. But we came up short. After speaking with other friends in our community, we realized this wasn't just a challenge we faced, but that couples face around the world.
We're passionate about helping everyone express their Filipino heritage and culture on their wedding day.
Weddings, after all, go beyond the couple themselves. They're also a celebration of all the people who have come before us, who are with us today, and who represent the future.
