PSE Auditorium is just 5 minute walk from our office - maganda kasi pwede akong magtambak ng wedding things sa bodega namin and is conveniently located near SM Megamall and The Podium- para sa mga taong mabilis maligaw at sa instant buying of wedding gifts.
It is located the ground floor of Philippine Stocks Exhange Tower, also known as the Tektite, along Exchange Road. Not to be confused with the Makati Stocks Exchange, PSE is the one located in Ortigas, near San Miguel Avenue.
The venue itself is like a hotel reception hall, carpeted floors and with a huge stage. Well, it is an auditorium after all. During our first visit, may party sa venue so we saw how it looked like when prepped up. During our second visit, this time, I was with my fiance, bare na ang venue and we saw how beautiful it is.
The hall seats around 180-200 guests comfortably. Hindi kami naniniwala sa estimates ng admin - 250 guests around 25 round tables can fit in. There is a stage where the couple can sit - na naging reason ko on the first visit na hesitant ako sa venue na ito. Para kaming ga-graduate ng mapapangasawa ko. But my fiance said it looked good (malamang, nakita nya ang same set up sa wedding ng college bestfriend nya sa PICC) and with the sparkling eyes, he was convinced that PSE is our reception venue.
Below are some of the pictures we took during our visit.
