First of all, Happy New Year to our dear Rebellious Brides! There were so many ways on how I could have written this "New Year" post---some of the things that I randomly thought of were: a recap of the 2011 rebellious wedding trends, or a simple greeting from me and Mica, or one, last rebellious post feature to end the year. But as I reflected on what would mean most, to us--and what meaningful post we can pass on to you, one thing in 2011 really stuck to me the most--and that is, how Mica and I both used the power of the law of attraction, positivity, and vision boards to get to where we want to be right now. In 2009-2010, a bunch of us girls, myself and Mica included, set out a goal to be married before 2012....and true enough, each and every one of those gals ARE married already! And boy was 2011 a big year for both me and Mica....how did we do it? We just tried our darnest to stay positive and fight for what we wanted. Sure, we've had some rough patches along the way but we tried to keep on fighting 'till the end (doesn't that sound like a line from "We are the Champions"? hehe).

So as we close one of the biggest and happiest years of our lives EVER, 2012 looks very bright for the Rebellious Brides...we are now at 120,000 pageviews in just 5 months of launching, and we are ushering in the new year with gigs for our Wedding Agency/Wedding Consultancy services, and our very first collaborations/campaigns about to launch in January of 2012. How awesome is that?!?!

Random Rebellion #10

"By the Sea" monogram from Rebellious Bunch - The Fozzy Book

We are very excited about this wedding because not only is the couple close to our hearts, they are also one of the first clients of our Wedding Agency/Consultancy. We also collaborated on a "Rebellious Bride" shoot with the bride, and Rebellious Bride Mica is going to be their makeup artist. The monogram definitely speaks of the couple's personalities--especially the bride. It actually even looks like it could pass for the bride's own doodle! Props to Fozzy Dayrit of The Fozzy Book!

Rebellious Calligraphy

Fozzy for Heima

A rebellious bride knows what she wants. She is an air of character and confidence. She will plan and pay attention to even the smallest detail; and will find a way to inject personality into it no matter how minute (or grand). Her guests will say, "that's a great idea" or "I wouldn't have thought of that." And they wouldn't want the wedding to end.

Countdown to 9-10-11 : The Flashcard Invite

Hello, peeps! I haven’t blogged not because I’m being rebellious but because there’s been a whirlwind of work, side line, mortgage and of course, our wedding preps :D

There are still some errands to finish (we’re crammers) but it’ll all wind down before month’s end and we’ll get to relax soon. For now, we’re spinning like tops with stress and excitement!

Oh, where were we (dizzy much)? Ah yes, the invite! We’ve been getting a LOT of great feedback and it is just plain awesome. Of course, we’d like to thank certain people for making that invite possible. But first, let’s backtrack a bit.

Our theme didn’t start out to be inspired by Little Rascals. But if you’ve seen our Prenup (and soon our album), you’ll see that we just wanted things to be fun and playful.
