They say that nothing can test a relationship quite like when you are traveling together. It doesn't even necessarily apply to just married couples. It applies to family, friends, and even colleagues. That's why I am personally a firm believer that married couples should always make it a point to travel together. Even better if you could actually make time to travel before having kids or when you already have kids, try to travel at least once, without the kids--so that you can re-connect on a deeper level. This could even be a great time to just be young and carefree, forget the daily grind even for just a week or two--and maybe even discuss and resolve marital issues that you are unable to express at home.

I Wish I Knew That Before I Had a Wedding...
If you are currently planning a wedding, first of all, congratulations on your engagement! Now, the hard work begins. You have probably heard that planning a wedding can be a bit of a nightmare. Of course, it is all worth it, and there will be plenty of fun and loving moments throughout the process. Nonetheless, you are going to be in for a few surprises along the way. Below, discover some of the things most brides wish they knew before they had a wedding.
Subtile et Rebelle
The French are subtle. They exude a sense of sophistication that comes from the rebellious balance of luxury and minimalism that can only come from their own way of life. French themes (and shoots) are aplenty. But often it misses the point of how the French are so not into the obvious. And that's what we wanted to achieve in this contemporary wedding editorial feature shot in various locations in France.
Levi & Juliah's Adorable Portlandia Fall Wedding
I may have found my most favorite Portland wedding yet.
Adorable, Quirky, Charming, Sweet -- that pretty much sums up Levi & Juliah's wedding.
Party of 35: An Intimate, "Adults-Only" Wedding
Rebellious Couple Ally and Marc are a tough pair, indeed. And we mean that in an admiring way. To be able to pull off not just an intimate wedding with only 35 guests AND to make it into an "adults-only" affair takes a whole lot of guts. And we mean A LOT of guts. Because there are moms that are sensitive to these kinds of things (ie. there's moms who are particular about kid-friendly places and events, and don't like their kids being left out). So we truly are amazed at how "courageous" Ally and Marc are. Ally is like a guest blogger today because she wrote an amazing article on their wedding already. So we'll let her tell their story in her own words. Enjoy!
Why Vogue Calls This Patagonia Wedding An Affair That Will Be "Difficult To Top"
Vogue was quite smitten with this wedding. So smitten that they posted it on their official Facebook feed maybe twice or thrice, and called it a wedding that would be "difficult to top." We all know that Vogue is the holy grail of fashion, style, and everything in between. So for them to adore a wedding like this, well it really must be quite something. Find out why through these photos.
Wildflower TV Wedding
Hello dear Rebellious Brides! Today, we are super excited to have this feature on the blog today. As this is the very first feature post that we have for our new category, "RB Fashion." A dedicated tab on the blog that will be solely focus on Bridal, Groom, Entourage, and Guest wedding style ideas. And with a bridal black gown situation in our midst, there's no better time to start this new category! So shall we begin?
"Rising Tide"
For almost one year, the blog has been silent. But you guys never faltered. Views are up. Support from the wedding industry is overwhelming. Social media is at a turning point.
One of these days, we will share with you the honest-to-goodness reason why we kept silent for a year. But for now, let us tell you that we are back with a vengeance.
For a year we've been figuring out how to evolve the blog. And one of the things that we wanted to do is to expand the categories that we can write about. For one thing, RB Mica and I are exploding with more ideas that go beyond the usual wedding features. And on the other hand, we realize that other wedding details get lost in templated features which is not fair to makeup artists, or florists, or even the caterer. We also understand that you guys WANT and NEED to know more about these details. And that's really the reason why we've come up with a plan to develop new categories in the blog. Here's a rundown of the categories that you will be expecting:
FASHION
All things wedding styling for brides, grooms, entourage, and even guests
BEAUTY
All things related to makeup, hair, and skincare for before, during, and after the wedding
TASTE
All things related to wedding menus, cocktails, cakes, and everything yummy in-between
DETAILS
All things related to wedding bouquets, styling, tablescapes, invites, DIYs, and all the other details you want to add on your big day
TRAVEL
All things related to honeymoon ideas, destination weddings, shoot locations, and other trips
And we will still have our current categories on features, concepts/ideas, and of course our infamous controversial write-ups (which we haven't done in a while but we have some eyebrow-raising musings coming your way)
And all the content for these categories are going to be expanded on Instagram and Youtube
Along with these categories, we will also be changing the blog design soon. For now, we just wanted to announce that we will expand the blog's content and you will see the blog evolve over the next few weeks and months.
It took us a year to finally push through with this idea. One of the hurdles was the fact that we wanted a total overhaul of our blog and brand right away. Which we are now understanding, is not necessarily a good thing because you tend to overthink and delay things and you miss out on the "now" and being present. The thing is, we've actually always had these types of content since we launched in 2011 but it just wasn't archived or deliberately communicated that way. At the end of the day, we've always been a personal blog, and with personal blogs it's inevitable to see the raw evolution of the space. It's more real, authentic, and intimate that way. So we are dropping the idea of a big overhaul and just keep churning out content as we slowly transition. So join us in this new journey, rebels. It's going to be one helluva ride once again.
XOXO,
RB Kai
PS. The title of the blog is also a foreshadowing of more things to come *wink*

Outdoor Indoor Engagement Sesh
Meet Yss and Mike. Self-confessed adventurers. They even got engaged during their hiking trip in Nepal. They wanted to incorporate travel and food into their engagement session but they knew all too well that expectations can be very different from reality. Especially since hiking and diving can get sweaty and messy. So here is their clever solution!
Goth Elopement
Today, we are excited to share with you this thrilling collaboration editorial shoot, shot on location at Sedona, AZ. The team behind the shoot includes photographer Brittany Hogan, hair and makeup artist Katie Turner, decors by Weddings4Rebels (love that name!), and flowers by Butterfly Petals (full credits listed below).
A Vow Renewal at Pont Neuf
Is there any other city in the world as romantic as Paris? You can feel the love and romance from every street--from the cafes to the flow of the river Seine. You can just feel it tingle in every fiber of your being. So it just makes perfect sense to get married in a place like Paris. And do you really need any fancy ceremonial arch and all the fluff when you already have Paris as your wedding backdrop? Nothing can quite compare to this city in its most organic scene, no matter how expensive your wedding styling could possibly be. 

Marie and Alex did just that. For their 10th year wedding anniversary, they decided to do their vow renewal in Paris, at Pont Neuf no less.
Metrophoto in Iceland
Hello, Rebels! To some of you who probably religiously follow the blog, you would know that we love...LOVE..Iceland. (Backtrack here: My Icelandic Rebel Love). We blogged about this country in 2015 and in that post, we were already planning another trip for 2016 (more on this 2016 trip soon). That's how much we loved this place. So when we first saw the teaser photos of Metrophoto's Iceland shoot with their couple Margaux and Francis, we couldn't have been more thrilled to see the final set.
Bonnie and Clyde
Because let's face it...we have all fantasized about breaking those damn rules once in a while, haven't we? ;)
