Seascape
It's a gloomy weekend but as February closes to an end, Summer is definitely right around the corner. And what better way to usher-in the new season than with a Beach wedding.
There's something about Singapore-based couple Jessa and Alvin's wedding that feels so understated. For one, their choices of colors -- dark navy blue, grey, green, and white are not the usual beach wedding colors. But it works and we definitely love it. Ghost chairs on the beach instead of Tiffany or lily chairs, metallic mismatched with organic details. All exuded a level of minimalism, modernism, and maturity that had its own air of sophistication.
This was a wedding that was very subtle in the details. The effect is absolutely stunning.
Chocolate, Strawberries, and Champagne
"Six years ago, we were already rebellious"
---Rebellious Bride Niña
To some extent, you can say that Niña is the honorary co-founder of Rebellious Brides because it was actually her idea for me and Mica to start a blog out of "Rebellious Brides" some 4 years ago.
And not only that, she and her husband Mikki made a lot of firsts in the wedding scene even before Mica and I got engaged and got married to our husbands ourselves. They were the firsts to have a creative wedding in our group of friends, they were one of the first real-life couples to have been picked by Wedding Essentials to be on their cover, and they were one of the firsts to be featured by Bridal Book as well.
Niña and Mikki's Chocolate, Strawberries, and Champagne wedding is the definitive proof that elegance and rebelliousness can co-exist in a seamless way. While their wedding respected a lot of traditions, they planned it with a lot of twists.
First of all, they did their wedding their way--no influences from friends and family. Secondly, the look and feel of their wedding were also quite unique. They used more than the usual wedding combinations opting for mixes of browns, reds, whites, and lace instead. The bride, while wearing a white gown opted for a more structured but feminine style--a "White w/ a Twist" creation by Ivarluski Aseron who is more known as a fashion/artistic designer rather than a bridal designer. Food was also one of the main focal points of the theme--with overflowing desserts, cocktails, mouthwatering dishes, and finished off with a chocolate tower instead of a wedding cake adding to the organic essence of the entire celebration.
Third, the wedding was also a musical feast with the bride entering the church to the song "Kissing" by Bliss (not your usual bridal entrance song), Spanish guitars, transcending to sounds of house music as DJ-ed by the bride's Maid-of-Honor for the after party.
Niña and Mikki's wedding was such a bespoke, very personal, and memorable day. Truly one for the books--and already rebellious even before we invented that term.
