It depends if you wanting a civil ceremony or church wedding...
MARRIAGE OF FILIPINO AND FOREIGN NATIONAL
Philippine law requires a citizen or subject of a foreign country to obtain a:
Certificate of Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage - It is issued by the diplomatic or consular offices of his or her country, prior to the issuance of a marriage license in the Philippines. This serves as a clearance or permit from the consul as an actual proof of the subject’s civil status and his/her eligibility for marriage.
After receiving the certificate of legal capacity to contract marriage both parties must proceed to the city hall or the municipality in which the Philippine national habitually resides. (where he or she has lived for at least the last 6 months). You must then both present the certificate of legal capacity to contract marriage to the local civil registrar and apply for your
Marriage License- (Family Code of the Philippines, Article 9). Please refer all questions regarding the procedures and requirements necessary to apply for your marriage license directly to the local civil registrar issuing the marriage license.
After applying your marriage license, the information given in the application will be posted for 10 consecutive days inside the city hall or the municipality in which the Philippine national habitually resides. The marriage license will be issued after the completion of this 10-day period (Family Code of the Philippines, Article 17). The marriage license, once issued, is valid in any part of the Philippines for 120 days. If it has not been used during this 120-day period it will then automatically expire (Family Code of the Philippines, Article 20).
CHURCH REQUIREMENTS FOR MARRIAGE WITH FOREIGNERS
Clearance: Foreigners who wish to apply for marriage with a Filipino citizen must first secure clearance from the Archdiocesan Chancery Office at the Arzobispado de Manila, 121 Arzobispo St., Intramuros, Manila (near Manila Cathedral). This clearance must be submitted to the Parish Office upon filing of application for the wedding.
Baptismal Certificate: This must be the original and obtained not more than three months from the wedding date. It must have the annotation: "FOR MARRIAGE PURPOSE ONLY." This is a requirement for BOTH bride and groom whether they are Catholic or not.
Certification of freedom to marry: This can be obtained from the Catholic Pastor, Protestant Minister or the Embassy of the foreigner.
Marriage license: this can be obtained from the civil authorities; or a Marriage Contract if already married with the civil registry number.
Permission and certification of singularity: This can be obtained from the parish of the bride if she is Catholic.
Military clearance: This has to be secured from the base military authorities specifically from the immediate Commanding Offices ONLY if any of the parties belong to the military.
For Non-Catholic: A certification of his/her legal capacity to marry. Has to be obtained from his/her embassy or from the country of origin.
Marriage banns: These have to be posted for three consecutive Sundays.
Dispensation: A dispensation from the impediment of mixed marriage/religion (Disparitas Cultas) has to be obtained if necessary.
Widow and Widower: The death certificate of the former spouse has to be presented to the office.
Divorced parties: A document of the Declaration of Nullity promulgated by the Catholic Memorial Tribunal or a certification from the Bishop of the party that he/she is free to marry has to be presented to the Archdiocesan Chancery Office for authentication and clearance.
Once you applied for a marriage license all the neccesarry documents will be ask such as cenomar,passports,birth certificates and fees.

Hi,
If your going to get married in the phils, better ask your local city hall. If going to get married in a church ask the priest or people who works there, as different places needs different things.
If i remeber it right:
1. U need ur Birth Certificate
2. Ur Cedula
3. Ur passport
4. Under 25 needs parent consent
5. Cenomar
6. Ur fiancee passport
7. Ur fiancee divorce papers (if married b4)
8. Coni
9. Marriage License
Hope this help somehow
Good luck
