Aside from being future brides (the former to Dingdong Dantes; the latter, to John Prats), what else do Marian Rivera and Isabel Oli have in common ?

Answer: both want children right away.

”I wants kids ASAP (as soon as possible), 3 to 4 sana.Konti pa nga lang yung 3 or 4. I’m already 33.  And I come from a big family,” Isabel told Yahoo Philippines in an interview after the presscon of Bonifacio: Ang Unang Pangulo, an official entry to the Metro Manila Filmfest (MMFF).

John and isabel's garden wedding is set sometime May in the farm of John’s family in Balete, Batangas.

Rustic romantic

“The date is perfect for the theme, which is rustic romantic,” Isabel adds.

She already got a lot of offers from designers who want to create her wedding gown, but Isabel has not chosen anyone yet, the same way she can’t give wedding details for now because she’s waiting for John and his family to go home from their holiday vacation in San Francisco, California.

“Everyone is telling me I have to prepare na kasi mabilis lang yan. Pero the place is John’s so relax din kami.”

Isabel adds that the only thing she and John have done so far is attend a marriage counseling session.

Why not June?

She’s leaving most of the wedding preparations to a coordinator she and John have chosen for their big day.

Why doesn't she want to be a June bride since the so-called marrying month is just a few weeks away from May?

“Maulan ang June and ours will be a garden wedding,” Isabel answers.

P90-M budget for ‘Bonifacio’

The actress feels honored and pressured working for the first time with Robin Padilla, who plays the title role in ‘Bonifacio,’ which was made to the tune of P90-M.

"Dati pinapanood ko lang siya. Nakakapressure kasi nasa set na siya, set up pa lang, nakikita mo na nasa Bonifacio mode na siya. Nakaka-pressure na makita kung gaano siya ka-passionate sa ginagawa niya. Pero may fun part din.”

She is expected to join her other co-actors, Eddie Garcia, Vina Morales (as Oriang, Bonifacio’s wife), Daniel Padilla, Jasmine Curtis, Rommel Padilla and others on the ‘Bonifacio’ float that will go around Manila in the MMFF grand parade of stars in the afternoon of Tuesday, December 23.

“Bonifacio: Ang Unang Pangulo,” produced by Philippians Productions, will be screened in Spain after it is shown in theaters nationwide starting Christmas day, December 25.
