Abstract: Wedding events place are common nowadays given the innovation of wedding ceremonies globally. Cavite as one of the tourist destinations near the Metro is one of the most sought after places to choose from to take part in the wedding ceremony. The focus of the study is to assess the wedding tourism resources of the selected cities and municipalities in Cavite. Using an explorative research technique, the researchers of the study randomly selected nine (9) wedding and events places in Cavite that offers Pre-Nuptial, Wedding Ceremony and Wedding Reception facilities. The researchers used primary data such as an interview guide and an observation checklist related to the research, to obtain necessary information. The study used participant observation and a semi-structured interview questionnaire with the owners/managers and representatives of the selected wedding venues in Cavite as the data gathering tool. During an intrinsic interview and observation to the places during ocular visits, the researchers have found out that the very reasons why these places are chosen by their clients are because of their scenery and hospitality. These combinations of characteristics by these venues are attracting their clients to come and visit them over and over again. Also, based on the results of the study, there are different venues to choose from whether the couples go for Natural Resources, Social and Cultural Resources, Tourism Infrastructure or Tourism Super-structure. At the end of the study, the researchers have highly recommended to create an event venue guide for the weddings and events place and venues in Cavite.
