All Hail the Queens at GH Mall and Estancia

No love compares to a mother’s love. She may fill every role, but no one can ever fill hers. From the quiet ways she cares for you every day to the life-shaping impact she has on your life, she gives endlessly without asking for anything in return. Mother’s Day is our chance to give that love back, and it’s their turn to be celebrated and spoiled.

Ortigas Malls is rolling out the red carpet for moms to honor them in joyful ways at GH Mall and Estancia Mall at Capitol Commons. Whether you're seeking to give her a day of indulgent shopping or a relaxing meal at one of their many establishments, Ortigas Malls has got extra surprises for your mom.

GH Mall blooms with love

GH Mall honors moms and their all-encompassing love through the beauty of nature in full bloom. Events throughout May offer families a chance to express their appreciation and create lasting memories with mom.

Happening on Mother’s Day on May 11, 4PM is the Barbie Limitless Adventure: Twinning with Mom Fashion Show, perfect for moms and kids who love fashion just like Barbie. This is open to all moms with kids aged 3 to 12 years old. They just need to present a P1,000 minimum purchase receipt on any item from the event’s selling area to join the fantastic fashion show. Dress your best and strike your best pose on the runway with your little one.

Shoppers can explore a special selling exhibit by Purificacion at The Central Garden of GH Mall until May 11. Known for their orchid nurseries and stunning displays, Purificacion uses orchids to pay tribute to the nurturing spirit of mothers. Choose an orchid variety that best suits your mom’s personality!

Adding flourish to the celebration, GH Mall partners with the Ikenobo Ikebana Society of Manila No. 67 for a unique tribute entitled “Salinsining: The Ikebana Interpretation of Visual Art.” The exhibit opens on May 16 at 3PM at the Ground Floor of the South Wing Atrium, where guests can view a stunning display of Japanese flower arrangements inspired by the grace and quiet strength of motherhood.

The celebration continues with free flower arrangement demonstrations and workshops for moms and children from May 17 to 18. These hands-on sessions are not only a chance to learn the fundamentals of Ikebana, they can also be beautiful bonding moments for mothers and children. On May 17, at 3PM, the workshop will be conducted by Dr. Divina Lupe Lazaro and Norma Villanueva. The following day, May 18, there will be two sessions: one at  11AM with Yvette Poe and Dr. Wenslyn Salvador, and another from 3 pm to 5 pm led by Dr. Norie Balderrama and Dr. Jun Balderrama. Admission is free, but seats are limited. Interested guests may reserve a slot by contacting 0917 630 6828 for this rare opportunity to learn the delicate techniques of ikebana while spending meaningful time with mom.

You can also join the Love and Frosting cupcake decorating competition on May 22, from 3PM to 5PM at 2/F Promenade. Registration is free, so this is your chance to have the sweetest bonding with mom.

On May 21, treat your mom to a pamper session during Time Off for Mom, in partnership with Bioessence, at the South Wing atrium from 10AM to 5PM. This is the perfect time to relax and get the beauty treatment you and your mom have always wanted.

If you’re looking for more fun beyond Mother’s Day weekend, Sip & Drip at the G/F Promenade Food Court will give you a different kind of energy with free coffee from RaKafe and DJ sets every Wednesday. Drop by from 4PM to 6PM for that late afternoon kick!
