"Probably the hardest part in doing DIYs is knowing the reason why you are doing it in the first place. Yes, it’s time consuming. Yes, it can be hard. It can sometimes blow your budget even. But you know in the end, it will be all worth it. You’ll know that you have made something out of your own creativity to bring a certain uniqueness to your own wedding. You’ll look back and say your wedding is inspired and totally reflected who you and your hubby are. So keep at it and don’t falter with your visions and inspirations."

A few days ago, we shared with you an awesome 80s wedding which we proudly featured as one of the dear couples who really found a lot of ideas and comfort in reading our blog.
As promised, we didn't want to edit out any of Rebellious Couple Jo-Anne and Arnold's retelling of their wedding and their rebellious ways, so here is Part 2 of Arnold & Jo-Anne's 80s Kids Wed!
Rebellious Brides: What is your own definition of a Rebellious Bride?
Jo-Anne writes:
1. A Rebellious Bride and (groom) is someone “unstoppable” - Even if we only had 3 months to prepare for the wedding, we knew that "nothing's gonna stop us"
2. A Rebellious Bride and (groom) is someone who can transform setbacks into opportunities - We didn’t want to burn all our hard earned savings in one day, which turned out to be an even bigger blessing, because it gave us the push to be more creative.
3. A Rebellious Bride and (groom) is one who never stops believing - A decision to veer away from the norm, would invite comments, that would sometimes shake one's confidence, but it's about taking a stand for what you and your partner believe in. We think that this also applies to a marital relationship and not just the wedding.--- amen to that! Read on for more!

Rebellious Bride Jo Anne Dumalaon-Canaria
on what makes her and her groom, a Rebellious Couple
This feature is quite special to us. On the surface, it's special because the couple got loads of DIY ideas because of the blog. But on a deeper level, out of all the submissions that we have received so far, this one really shows a certain validation that our blog is in the right, rebellious path. The bride muses that our blog has enlightened, convinced, and comforted not just her and her groom, but also their family--to understand their decisions, to defend their wedding ideas, and inevitably to avoid Bride Bullying. A couple and a family that were miles apart, we are also very overwhelmed to know that our blog broke barriers for this wedding/family affair. This couple truly wanted their rebellious side to be unleashed and they found it difficult. In the end, they are proud to say that their cause was worth fighting for. So we do hope that you learn a thing or two from this feature. Here goes :)In Jo Anne's own words:
In the beginning, my “rebelliously creative” husband, Arnold, (fiancée at that time) had two requests: one was to have 80s songs for the reception (his favorite decade), and two to make the wedding our own (we didn’t want to, and we couldn’t afford a “wedding production”).

"A rebellious bride is someone who does not abide by the rules: she sets the rules! She plans the day the way it is suppose to unfold. She chooses to be happy while daring to be extraordinary. Armed with wit and an open heart, she is a bride with a mission: to transcend convention, not for the sake of being rebellious, but simply because she needs to remain faithful to herself."

Rebellious Idea: D-I-Y
 |
| Manila Bulletin feature |
"Everybody wants a unique wedding - even the more conventional ones. But most do not know how to do it right. Most couples think it's more expensive to have thematic or personalized weddings so they choose to go the traditional route instead. But the truth is it all boils down how dirty you want to get -and by dirty, we mean sucking the marrow out of your creativity. The truth is, sometimes a non-cookie cutter wedding can come out the more practical option -especially if you go D-I-Y (Do It Yourself)." -by Tricia Morente, excerpt from today's Manila Bulletin article entitled Wedding Rebels with a Cause
