Wedding Agency: Kathleen & Dingdong's Happy Ending (Nelwin Uy Edition)

Photography by Nelwin Uy

Hooray! Official wedding photos from Nelwin Uy are finally up on his blog! WOOT! And this is the first time we are seeing the video mapping projection from Kathleen & Dingdong's Romantic Discovery Wedding! So exciting! :)

For those who are regulars on the blog, you might have known by now that Kathleen & Dingdong are our Wedding Agency clients and we've blogged about them like sooo many times already haha! (Back track on one of the features HERE).
When Kathleen & Dingdong approached us for their concept and their supplier selection, they were dead set on one thing: not to make their wedding the usual Boracay wedding. We culled the inspiration from the couple themselves--Kathleen was a fairy tale romantic and Dingdong was a technology wiz. And if you look at their wedding, it really doesn't look like a Boracay template because it's THEIR OWN Happy Ending :)

A million times congrats to Kathleen & Dingdong! And this is not even the final feature yet! Haha! Up Next: The Mark Cantalejo Edition.

The Wedding Agency: Kathleen & Dingdong

We'd like to formally congratulate one of our Wedding Agency couples Kathleen & Dingdong for finally tying the knot in Shangri-La, Boracay! 

While we impatiently wait for the official photos, we'd like to share with you guys some of the elements of their wedding. 

A Modern Fairytale...

When K&D first briefed us, it was quite clear that Kathleen was the romantic one and Dingdong was the more techie one. At the heart of their wedding was that it was going to be a modern fairytale--the best way to describe how Kathleen & Dingdong perfectly blended together as one heart & soul. But since it was a fairytale, it needed a title. A title that literally went through an evolution of sorts. In the end, while finalizing venue locations for their prenup, Kathleen herself had an epiphany of naming their fairytale as a "Romantic Discovery" and the rest you could say, was happily ever after.

The Fairytale/Romantic  part of it represented the bride. While the Modern/Discovery part of it represented the groom. A lot of the design elements were inspired by the modern Rapunzel fairytale 'Tangled'. It was definitely not the usual Boracay wedding elements that we've been used to. 

Taken on the actual morning of the wedding day - The most beautiful omen you could possibly have during your wedding is a rainbow- indeed, this day was a going to be a fairytale to remember! (Photo grabbed from the couple's friend Love)

From peg to the actual output, the invitations were inspired by the TV Series Revenge

The bride loves sunsets--the wedding palette was inspired by it! The second beautiful omen of the day arrived before the reception - from Rainbows to Sunsets, it was as if God himself was celebrating with the couple that day.  (Photo grabbed from the couple's sister Zarah)

The couple didn't want their wedding to look like the usual Boracay wedding. So the bride looked to the illuminating lights that was a signature look of the modern fairytale 'Tangled' for inspiration. 

The modern, techie groom made sure he had his own vibe to be ever-present in the wedding too. Hence, the metallic and techie touches.

Kathleen & Dingdong will always be special to us. I can still remember how, during the first week into our servicing period with Kathleen we were able to establish a teamwork with her. By the end of the week we had her wedding date down (not an easy task if you have popular suppliers), got her pencil booked with Amanda Tirol, Nelwin Uy, Mark Cantalejo, and Cary Santiago; and eventually got Fozzy, Badang Rueda, VDJ JT Rius, Madge Lejano, Mel Orlina, and Lifestyle by Feliz on board. 

We'd like to personally congratulate the awesome team of Mayad for capturing Kathleen & Dingdong's Romantic Discovery wedding exactly how the couple envisioned their blissful wedding would be like. Watching the wedding film literally brought us back to when we were still making K+D's walkthrough. Bravo! 

Congratulations to our princess and prince charming! More to come soon from Mark Cantalejo and Nelwin Uy. But in the meantime, let's watch the photo slideshow from Nelwin :)

Rebellious Venice Film Festival Gowns

The other day, we brought you some rebellious inspirations from the catwalk. This time, here are some inspirations from GMA 7 premiere actress Lovi Poe at the Venice Film Festival. Don't you just love both of her gowns? And her look? She makes us so proud!

Isn't she just rebelliously lovely?

XOXO,
Kai
