Being both from advertising agencies, Kitty and Vince have a keen eye for beauty. Hence, it was all about glitz and glamour. It was a wedding where you excitedly realise you can wear your silk gloves and not look overdressed. In fact, the point was to wear your best pearls and fascinating fascinators!
Just like the good old times.

“Vince loves history,
particularly the late 19th and early 20th century. Growing up, one of his
favorite toys was a die cast 1920s Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost. On the other hand,
I adore the glamorous – dramatic dresses and glittery accessories,” says Kitty.
“We’re fans of shows
Boardwalk Empire, the HBO series set in Prohibition Era America, and Downton
Abbey. So it was a case of the flapper meeting the dapper,” adds Vince.
The result was a Vintage
Glam theme inspired by the Roaring 20s.
“We also wanted everyone to look
dashing and fabulous. We wanted them to feel just how special they are. We
wanted them to have a great time,” says Kitty.
Elements of Rebellion:
1. An all adult entourage
2. An intimate guest list
of 125
3. The entourage in
corsages instead of bouquets except for the mothers
4. Bridesmaids in different
dresses, their own choice and we just tied the look together with pearls and
headpieces purchased from claires.
5. Groomsmen in peacock
feather boutonnieres that the bride made
6. Groom ditched his chucks
for a patent leather pair to match his MNR Inc tuxedo, and learned how to tie a
bowtie.
7. Bridal bouquet of
orchids, spray roses and lily of the valley
8. Bride designed the
mothers’ dresses
9. Bride did all the
calligraphy place cards in the reception
10. Bride did all the
calligraphy invitations
11. Bride and Groom
designed the wedding invitation
12. The invites were
letterpressed and shipped from Cebu
13. The groom did all the
wedding paperwork
14. The Groom chose the
wedding playlist
15. The Groom chose the SDE
music
16. The Groom wrote the
event script
17. The exchange of letters
was really a surprise, the bride and groom did their own calligraphy.
18. Black table cloth at
the reception
19. The bride and groom did
the Tent cards for cocktails
20. Sit Down Dinner
21. NO doves, NO bouquet
toss or garter toss, NO games and trivia during reception
22. We opted for a simple
white cake and ordered a customized acrylic cake topper with uplight from
Arizona.
23. NO power table, and the
godparents were seated with people that actually know. We call it their little
islands. They looked more happy and relaxed.
24. WE GOT TO EAT DINNER -
we made sure that nothing is happening over dinner, just the quartet and the
engagement photos cause for sure everyone's hungry.
25.The secondary sponsors
are real life couples
26. We gave the suppliers a
guide pdf, like a pre-prod kit with all our agreements and everything turned
out beautiful.
27. And liquor, lots of
liquor. We really wanted a party.
28. We wanted our guests to
feel that it's not just about us, that the night is a celebration of love,
friendship and family.
