One Happy Rebellious Story

All photos by One Happy Story

What we love about the wedding industry is that talent is just everywhere. Not just in Manila. We hear a lot of wedding artists from Visayas and Mindanao that are making waves here and abroad and One Happy Story is definitely one of them.

Known for their fresh photography that uses very minimal editing, Cagayan de Oro-based photographers One Happy Story was just recently included in an exclusive listing for Love Olio which hand-picks the most "groundbreaking" photographers in the WORLD--and we couldn't be any prouder for them. 

With so many photographers to choose from, what makes one stand out for us? One is minimal post-processing...when the RAW photos are just so beautiful as it is. Second is when a photo evokes so many feelings and emotions that you can't help but be intrigued--so much so that you kinda wanna be in that picture yourself. Third is just effortless beauty. And One Happy Story is just that. 

One Happy Story is based in CDO therefore we highly recommend them for couples who are based in Visayas and Mindanao--particularly the ones from Cebu and Davao. You guys are lucky to have this kind of talent in your own neck of the woods. I particularly love that One Happy Story's style is so close to the Southern Californian look that grace Green Wedding Shoes all the time. So if you are from VisMin, take this one-of-a-kind opportunity to work with a team that has this world-class appeal. Bon Aserios of One Happy Story wittingly says that they can be your "rebels from Mindanao" -- when it comes to weddings that is. Haha!

One Happy Story has this to say about the Rebellious Bride:

The Rebellious Bride is a

LEGEN..wait for it...wait for it...wait for iiiittt....DARY!

When a bride gets what she wants for her wedding she is already defying traditions. There will always be a friend, a sister, a mother, an aunt, a principal sponsor who will give his/her own suggestions and what not for the bride's wedding but when the bride shrugs it off and just follows what her dream wedding will be, she is a Rebellious Bride :)

Get happy with One Happy Story's "fresh, fun funky, photography!" :)

Rebellious Bunch - Cherryblocks

The Rebellious Bride steps out of the norm, thinking out of the box and exploring the creativeness to make her wedding unique and incomparable. :D

Cherryblocks on their definition of a Rebellious Bride

Mica and I have been one of Cherryblocks' silent fans for quite awhile. In fact, we discovered them right after we've planned for our own weddings so instead, we've highly recommended them to one of our Wedding Agency clients Mik & Paula! (Blog on this super fun wedding very very soon!)

One look at Cherryblocks' ever-growing wicked body of work and you'll instantly know that they have their own unique streak of rebelliousness. They call it the perfect mix of surreal and the natural. When I look at their photos, I am quickly transported to another place--like a children's book, an artwork, an eerily beautiful song. The colors of their portraits swirl in perfect balance and hues, their subjects come to life with souls pouring out but with a hint of humor in their eyes. Enough about my words. Here's what I'm talking about:

Rebellious Bunch: Toto Villaruel

The rebellious one


A rebellious bride is a visionary! Imagines what she likes and makes it real. The rebel who’s confident to make her ideas and creativity work and doesn’t care what others have to say… because it’s her wedding ☺ A rebellious bride is the true bride, someone who is not afraid to show how crazy they are! :D she’s an artist inside and out! :)

Rebellious Photographs by Pat Dy

"A rebellious bride is: someone who doesn't follow the traditional wedding details and preps, she can still get inspiration from the books and magazines and makes her own twist of things from her gown, to her invites up to the way the food is presented. It does not have to be totally radical but it should be different from everybody else in his/her own interpretation."

Rebellious Bunch - J Lucas Reyes

"The heart of 'rebelliousness' is certainly the passion for expression, and expression never requires perfection. Oftentimes, the perfect wedding for some is what may have worked for others, and where the couple's personalities only fill in the gaps of a ready-made-done-already-and-cool masterplan....."

....The perfect wedding for a rebellious bride is putting her money where her heart is, on a plan that embraces both their souls and not just what usually works for everybody. These brides scream vision, not just purpose. And personally experiencing these weddings riddled with thoughtful ideas and peculiar quirks that challenge convention draws you in, with clear answers that resonate who the couple really is. For them it's not just putting on an expensive gown and a dapper suit, it's all about wearing their intricate paper hearts on their sleeves (with good taste of course!) on their most important day as a couple."
