Cathy & Jonard's "Anti-Reception" Wedding

Photography by We Do It For Love

One of the blog's most famous posts and probably one of our most famous "rebellious thoughts" is the concept of not having the usual reception expected of a wedding. We call this, the "Anti-Reception." But while we do know that this idea is quite popular among our readers, and we even get personal emails that discuss this idea further, we rarely see actual photo sets that would kind of give us an indication that there are real rebellious brides out there who have materialized an anti-reception wedding. So when we saw this set from We Do It For Love, we were more than excited! Not only is this wedding a real anti-reception wedding in the flesh, it was also done in Casa Roces! The venue we featured in our Gatsby series! Woot!  We are super excited to share this feature. May this prove that anti-reception weddings are just as beautiful and just as memorable! 

 PS. Check out the couple's rebellious wedding bands! So unique!

RB Goes Gatsby, Part 2 of 3

Photography by Carlo Cecilio of ImagineNation
The Gatsby party is heating up as we take you to a journey through this fantastical second part of our 3-part RB Gatsby Special Feature. And this time around, our muse Amanda Tirol takes on the role of the charismatic, enigmatic, leading lady of the book/movie Daisy Buchanan as she models the works of The Cecilio Abad Design Team feat. Vidal Clayton. 

 In this feature, we also finally reveal our Gatsby-worthy Anti-Reception venue location, Casa Roces Malacanan. So pop, fizz, and sizzle and enjoy! 

"It's so you!", Madge Lejano tells me when Amanda comes out wearing her first Clayton gown. And I'd have to agree on that. Clayton is probably my most favorite gown designer right now--and if you've been reading the blog lately, we've been featuring a lot of his works. What's not to love? His gowns are very intricate but not too overbearing. There is a clear deviation from the typical white gowns but there is a balance between the classic and the fashion forward.

RB Goes Gatsby, Part 1 of 3

Photography by Carlo Cecilio of ImagineNation
As early as December 2012, the blog released its Fearless Forecast for 2013. Two of which were: 1) A renewed love for 20s-inspired weddings because of the Gatsby movie; and 2) New anti-reception venue discoveries. 

 In this 3-part special feature, we've collaborated with some of the biggest names in the wedding industry to come up with our own interpretation of how to localize a Gatsby-inspired wedding. After all, inspiration is one thing but rebelliousness always has to have its own twist and own vision.
