Constructed in the foothills of the Sierra Madre Mountains, The Villa Milagros Mansion is an ancestral house of the Liamzon family of Rodriguez Rizal (formerly Montalban). It took 5 years (1965-1969) to build the mansion and revealed just in time for the 35th wedding anniversary of Mr. Isidoro Buenviaje Liamzon and Ma. Milagros Manahan Liamzon.
This grand house was inspired by the travels of the Liamzon couple in 1950's in Europe who wanted to build a house that had a European aesthetic then signed with the help of Architect Rey Eustaquio to help realize their vision.
We arrive at our destination around 12:00 noon and before our trip starts, we meet the members of Liamzon family and tell some history about the house.
Ms. Andrea Liamzon - Manager and granddaughter of Liamzon couple Isidoro and Milagros Liamzon. Thanks to her dedication and commitment to restore their grandparent's ancestral house, we enjoy experiencing cinematic venue for our very special occasion.
After the short story, we proceed to our lunch prepared by Banquets by VS&F

Banquets by VS&F continues the tradition of creative cuisine
Joyce Abesamis was born into good food.
Her parents, Mr. Buddy Abesamis and Mrs. Josephine Abesamis, established VS&F, one of the most successful Filipino catering companies. VS&F began more than 30 years ago by delivering packed lunches to malls and offices until it grew into a full-service catering business, which is well-known for its delicious food. Among its exceptional dishes are Chicken Teriyaki, Lengua with Mushroom Gravy, Buco Pandan, and Tempura.
Inspired by their parents’ trailblazing attitude, Joyce and her sisters Veronica, Aina, Issa, and Tine started their own venture in 2008: a mobile bar specializing in alcoholic beverages, which they named Elation. Joyce, even at a young age, helped on marketing and accommodating clients.
Aside from her natural eagerness to interact with clients, Joyce also loved to cook and would always give in to her sisters’ requests for special occasions or even just for a simple family get-together. She naturally gravitated to culinary arts, which became her chosen college course. Joyce took up BS International Hospitality Management with Specialization in Culinary Arts from the Ducasse Institute Philippines at Enderun Colleges. She also trained at a fine dining Michelin star restaurant in Paris, France.
Exposure to European cuisine motivated Joyce to manage a subsidiary of VS&F, one that is focused on contemporary catering. Thus, Banquets by VS&F was born out of Joyce’s desire to bring innovative and luxurious culinary styles and concepts to the celebration scene in Metro Manila. The spread prepared by Banquets by VS&F would have more current fare such as Watermelon and Feta Skewers, Cajun Shrimp and Mango Salad, Carpaccio or Cheese Platter. Joyce’s concoctions provide a novel twist to traditional festivities, making the events more remarkable and extraordinary for the guests.
Banquets by VS&F is client-centered, accepting only 1 event per day to make sure that their team is a full force towards customer satisfaction. Always with a personal touch, Joyce personally handles the clients of from booking, food tasting, event proper, and post-event discussions.
True to its being a contemporary catering company, Banquets by VS&F also has its in-house stylist, Project Events MNL, which focuses on clean, elegant, and timeless set-ups. Whether it is a black-and-white theme for a wedding or a military-inspired set-up for a baby girl’s first birthday or a chic presentation for an intimate get-together, trust Banquets by VS&F to pull out all the stops in order to deliver the client’s dream party.
