Marquez opted to perform a Tagalog spoken word poem highlighting her transition from when she left show business in 2014 to focus on her kids to becoming, finally, a wife
Kung kailan ko tinalikuran ang entablado,
binitawan ang mikropono,
iniwasan ang mga naglalakihang ilaw
na tila ba ako'y nasilaw.
Hinayaan ang humahangos na
damdamin ang magdikta
kung saan ako pupunta.
Hanggang sa madapa na."

Marquez started as a MYX VJ in 2003 then transferred to GMA Network in 2007. She was last seen in GMA Network's shows *Rhodora X* and *Destiny* in 2014. Her kids are Kailey Adriana (7) and Kyler Armand (6).
Marquez got engaged with Sean Fariñas, her boyfriend since 2012, last May during their beach vacation in Negros Occidental. "It is not I but we, not us but God."
Instead of updating her fans about her [wedding] (http://says.com/ph/showbiz/7-times-nikki-gil-and-bj-albert-s-marriage-proved-that-true-love-waits) preparations, she took the opportunity to encourage women
Marquez believes that expensive wedding preparations do not mean that it is tantamount to the love being shared. Martyr women, she adds, should open their minds and stop living blind.
Marquez believes that it isn't important who wore the most expensive gown, or who held the coolest engagement parties. What should be prioritized is the marriage itself.
"Without Him, the marriage will collapse. With Him, it makes your marriage whole, it makes you love each other more and more each day."
