RTW and Gorgeous


Veluz RTW 2014 Collection 
from Jason Magbanua on Vimeo.

When a rebel bride dare say that she is toying with the idea of RTW, you could almost taste the uncomfortable silences, the judgmental eyes, the clearing of the throat, and the wrinkled nose. There's a stigma. And it's become the white elephant in the room. What more when you say RTW+taffeta. Oh the horror. 

Enter Veluz. She's always changed the game and she's at it again. There's a reason why she's landed on the now famous Buzz Feed article on the world's most beautiful detailed gowns list. She doesn't just make beautiful gowns. Her signature in every piece is impeccable and apparent. Rebellious in the ORIGINAL, as we said earlier this week. You know her trademark and you know she's got taste. In this 2014 RTW collection, she makes the word RTW something you would want to COVET. And that's saying something. And she's also done the unthinkable. She's made taffeta, gorgeously pretty again. It's the biggest comeback ever. On a more personal note, I was NEVER, EVER a fan of white bridal gowns and every RB reader knows that. But Veluz is probably the only designer that makes me want to wear white. And again, that's saying something ;)

But having had a first-hand experience of what went on during the latter part of the shoot, what's even more admirable about Veluz is how she could get an amazing pool of artists to collaborate with her with such love, passion, and positivity. It's a testament to not only how she is as a designer, but how she is as a person. Having said that, I'd like to applaud the creative team behind the shoot--most especially to Madge Lejano who was the brainchild of the bridal looks and creative treatments. Everything felt so rebelliously beautiful. Chandeliers hanging on trees, the most unconventional of models, the AHMAZING hair and makeup that is definitely not your usual bridal looks. And the video. So many emotions! 

Congrats to Veluz and the rest of the amazing team that worked on the RTW 2014 Collection Launch. Truly world class! 

This is only the beginning of the launch. Don't forget to add @veluzbride on Instagram to get updated on the catalogue and creative photos from the entire collection.

Carol & Gino: Home "Chic" Home

Photography by Jaja Samaniego

A few days ago, we blogged about our Wedding Agency clients Carol & Gino and their Home "Chic" Home wedding. This time around, we have more official photos from Jaja Samaniego and they are absolutely purrty! 

Just a few additional details about the wedding planning before you guys enjoy this photo set. We were actually the first-ever suppliers the couple booked! Since they are based in the US, it was absolutely necessary for them to team up with us because they wanted someone who could objectively recommend local talents based on their taste and style. They were starting from scratch and we were grateful that they trusted our process of conceptualizing for their personal theme first before identifying which suppliers to work with. And speaking of suppliers, majority of the ones we recommended are also the ones that the clients progressed! 

As for the theme, the clients wanted a homey and local vibe---but without the usual fiesta-themed Pinoy weddings. The result was a wedding hinged on their relationship and a wedding that looked quite organic and fresh. The overall feeling was like a home you could go home to  :)

Prom - The Road to Rebelliousness

Let's interrupt the usual wedding programming for a little bit, shall we? Poveda's 2013 Junior Prom. When wedding giants like Jason Magbanua, For You Are Mine, Madge Lejano, and hosts like The Boys of the Boys Night Out are actually part of a prom--you know this is gonna be fun, right? :)



The best-dressed of the night went to Janna Lejano, Madge's daughter. With a rebellious black Veluz gown, with Madge's amazing makeup, and with Teddy Manuel's creations on the corsage, you know know that Janna's entire look was really poised to be a sensation. Pay attention girls--you want to look awesome? You want to look different? You want to innovate? Then look to wedding artists even if your event is not a wedding.

Lifted from Madge's Instagram 


Ahhhh.....prom. Great times. I was super into prom. So much so that I was in two of my own school's prom, La Salle's Senior Ball, and get this--I even attended a prom in the States (and boy that was a culture shock!)

When you turn into a Junior, all of a sudden you can feel the excitement everywhere as early as the start of the school year because it's gonna be a prom year. Not everyone cares for it, but for those who did (like me!) - the preps was one-year-in-the-making. It was in my junior year that I started with my derma routine--WEEKLY for almost a  year 'till my face cleared of blemishes can you imagine? And my good friend Maita and I (and Maita now works for the House of Alexander McQueen in London and she worked on the Royal Wedding can you imagine?) would sketch prom pegs. Seventeen Magazine was our bible at that time. It was such a big deal. If you think about it, one of the reasons why it was such a big deal was because you were 16 or 17 and for the first time, you get to make your own decisions and it would be the first time you'd transition into 'rebelling' against what your mom would probably want for your prom.

Looking back, I probably got my rebellious streak started during prom. Going against the flow, I didn't even get a designer gown. I had a peg and had a gay guy make it for me for like 2,000 bucks and I won the "hit the beach award" because my gown stood out and looked like a beach gown (my, I was really destined to be a Bora bride, huh?). Prom eventually leads to a Debut of course (w/c for me was more like an ANTI-debut type of thing), then of course you'll have the Wedding. Some may find these things superficial but it can actually define you or mold you to to the kind of independent decisions you eventually make. What were you like during YOUR prom? How about taking inspiration from it for your wedding? Like a "do-over" or the better version of your prom? :)

Amanda & Chris' "Il Magnifico" Wedding

Photography by Metrophoto

Have you ever seen such a magnificent and colorful wedding that it burns your eyes with so much beauty? I call Amanda & Chris' wedding "Il Magnifico" because the very word is associated with poetic, renaissance art (read The Poet Prince if you have the time). 




My absolute favorite weddings are those set in nature and those that are so vibrant with color that your heart feels like it's going to burst into a song. Kudos as always to Metrophoto's Oly Ruiz for bringing us a wedding set that shouldn't even be called "wedding photos" because it's like pieces of infused art. Enough words. Let these photos move you.

Congratulations to such a magnificent couple indeed!

The Ultimate Run for Love

My, how time flies by so fast. Just last year, we cited Coach Rio's proposal video as a trend to watch out for in 2012 (Back track HERE). And here we are today, ogling his and Nicole's heart-stopping Mayad trailer & wedding video.

We don't personally know Coach Rio and Nicole (my mom does though--which is soooo weird!). But Coach being one of the country's 'pambansang' icons when it comes to all things running/marathons, we feel happy for him & his equally athletic 'n awesome wife as if we were one of the bystanders rooting for the lovers to finally finish the race.

Watch their rebellious, creative, and 'oh-so-logistically massive & impressive' teaser trailer:


Rio & Nicole Trailer from Mayad Studios on Vimeo.

Separately, Mayad (with the direction of Raphael Jamil Pranga) culminated the couple's running journey  through a thematic wedding video. What's so rebellious about their wedding besides Coach Rio's usual rebellious hair? Well, watch out how the couple exits the church and the bride's sizzling preps! We are also loving Nicole's rogue lips! Another sign that our fearless 2013 forecast is on the right track :)


Congratulations to one of the country's most inspiring, hottest couples! :)
