Rebellious Couple - Mark & Punky's Munky Bizniz Wedding! (Part One)

Artwork by Coy Cueto
A lot of people couldn’t believe us when they’d ask what the theme was. Instead of saying “blue and white” or “shabby chic” we’d answer “unggoy!” which was met with many a “weh,” “ows” and “di nga!”

Rebellious Bride Mareea Anais “Punky” Dario on explaining their "Munky Bizniz" wedding concept

I'd like to start this feature by sharing with you the email I received from one of our readers, and a good friend, Coy Cueto:

I'm subscribed to your blog so I get to read every post :)
Anyhoo, just wanted to share with you my friends' wedding!
They have a MunkyBizniz theme for it hahaha. They're pretty silly.
Wala lang, I just wanted to share it with you http://munkybizniz.wordpress.com/
 
Coy sent this message to me, November of 2011 -- and can you imagine how I've been pestering her ever since? Haha. We've been eagerly waiting for this wedding because the concept of a "Munky" wedding is just so rebelliously crazy! So in this 2-part blog feature, let's  first set the tone and "Munky" mood by starting off with the ideas on each and every part of their detailed rebellious concepts. So quit "munkying" around and read on below! :)

Rebellious Couple - Lyanne & Winchester: A Teaser

Let's move on to our regular rebellious program, shall we? Amidst all the drama in the blog this week, it's the super nice and pleasant direct emails we receive from our Rebellious Brides that we love the most. Rebellious Bride Lyanne, has been sending us details of her rebellious prenup and wedding, and her emails are always so polite! Love it!  

With a prenup that involves Victoria Court, and with intricate Old Glam/Hollywood wedding ideas, the colors and the details of this rebellious wedding are just really dramatic and vibrant!  

As we sort out the goodies that Lyanne sent us, we wanted to start the entire love story first with the wedding video itself. Enjoy :)

Jay Jay Lucas Wants You!

comm-n-sense.blogspot.com
Rebellious Bunch - Chestknots / Jay Jay Lucas is one of Bridetastic's highest ranked photographers and we couldn't agree more.

Here's one of the most thoughtful reviews made by one of Jay Jay's brides at Bridetastic:



Now Jay Jay wants YOU! Yes you! If you are a couple who's just starting with your wedding planning, here's your chance to get a great deal on Jay Jay's wedding packages. Have you already booked Jay Jay? Don't fret! Bridetastic's The Best for Less deal can still be extended to you if you win the contest! All you have to do is convince him and impress him on why your wedding will be more special with Jay Jay on your team. Give us reasons to be proud of you too by making sure your entry rebelliously stands out!


Jay Jay already made an awesome definition of the Rebellious Bride (visit the link HERE). But now we asked him on what he thinks of the Rebellious Bridetastic Bride and here's what he had to say:

"A Rebellious and Bridetastic Bride searches for the extraordinary in the ordinary of things in a wedding. They look for that extra punch, the essential detail, the winning combination that would allow them to enjoy their wedding experience. They are hands on, they do their research and makes sure that they won't sacrifice personalizing their big day. And what's great about rebellious and bridetastic brides is that they happily share their experiences with fellow brides and share tips and advices that were helpful to them."

We also asked him if he had any advice for brides who are wedding planning and here's what he said: 

"Do things together as a couple. Decide on the minor and major things. A lot of people around may have a lot of suggestions and opinions, but in the end the decision should be still with you guys. A lot of preparations go into a wedding.. don't forget that once everything is set.. just pray, sit back, let go, trust your suppliers and enjoy the biggest day of your lives! :D" -- Indeed!

Here are more of Jay Jay's most unique photos :)

Jeff and Ycoy by Passion Cooks
Wow. And I mean, WOW. In extra large font WOW. Looking at Passion Cooks' most unique works have made us realize just how spot on their name is.

You guys know how critical we are when it comes to including wedding visionaries as part of our Rebellious Bunch List--but we're just gonna go right ahead and put them on that list right here, right NOW. 

A 5-star review at Bridetastic

It doesn't really come out as a big surprise that Passion Cooks is the highest ranked catering vendor in Bridetastic. Their work doesn't just go over and beyond the food itself--their eye for detail is so impeccable and their design aesthetics are so perfectly in tune with the couple's ideas and venue. Simply put, their work is just so passionately moving. 

With no exaggeration, I am so amazed by their work that if I had a wedding now, I'd beg Bridetastic's Cathy Lao to give me their Passion Cooks discount from their The Best for Less promo! Haha. So if you are planning your wedding, gosh...make us proud and join Bridetastic's The Best for Less! All you have to do is answer how Passion Cooks can make your wedding much more special. While you are at it, make it a REBELLIOUS wedding idea because an artistic wedding visionary such as Passion Cooks would be just the kind of partner to really execute a rebellious wedding and make it so breathtakingly wicked!

Kate Spade Mood Board #7

www.katespade.com


We'd love to see the day when bridal gowns suddenly explode with patterns. Last year, Kate Spade revealed their delicious colors via a monthly reveal which we featured here as Kate Spade Mood Boards. For 2012, Kate Spade will be saying good-bye to solid colors to give way to monthly patterns and we are so excited! January is all about stripes and we're so loving this! How about STRIPES as a wedding theme? How about Stripes and color blocks? Or how about Stripes meets Mod? Oh the possibilities are so endless!

The Ugly Truth

language.cont3xt.net
Warning folks. This blog will...in the rarest of occasions, going to turn negative and downright ugly. 


Here in Rebellious Brides, even if we pride ourselves for saying what we want to say, for challenging old-school beliefs, and for replacing traditions with our own, we always try to be as cheerful and pleasant about it. We avoid being negative at all costs even when it comes to our most controversial of blog posts. But we feel that an Ugly Truth needs to be finally revealed, so that brides (and grooms) will be warned of this ugliness once and for all.


There's something nasty that no one seems to warn you about while you are planning your wedding. I guess, nobody speaks of it openly because it's just too sad. But again, it has to finally come out. And even if it means that we have to be the ones to finally be vocal about this white elephant in the room, so be it.
