When it comes to wedding advice, you can scroll endless TikTok videos and read a hundred “expert” articles but sometimes, the only tips that hit just right come from someone who’s been there, done that, and still has the veil tucked away.
For brides in 2025, that someone is Jazmin “Jaz” Reyes, a Filipina influencer, content creator, and self-proclaimed anti-bride who’s rewriting the bridal rulebook one viral TikTok at a time.
You might know her from her cinematic wedding to photographer and filmmaker Miguel Lorenzo Sotto (and yes, it was as dreamy as it sounds), or maybe you’ve seen her edible wedding invitations that broke the internet.
Either way, she’s not here to sugarcoat anything. She’s serving the kind of candid, big-sis energy brides crave when wedding planning becomes too chaotic.
Before she became TikTok’s go-to bride whisperer, Jaz was already a well-loved digital creator and host. She’s witty, self-deprecating, and, by her own definition, a proud “anti-bride.”
Case in point? She went viral even before her big day with one of the most iconic (and edible) wedding invitations ever: a loaf of bread. Yep, instead of thick cardstock, guests got carbs. Brides on TikTok called it genius, and honestly, who wouldn’t RSVP to bread?
Her wedding itself was a love story staged like cinema. Photographer and filmmaker Miguel Lorenzo Sotto tied the knot with Jaz in a series of unforgettable events: their Tinghun engagement ceremony in Lijiang, China, followed by a dreamy church wedding at St. James the Great in Alabang, and capped off with a reception at Lakehall in Sta. Rosa, Laguna.
It was the kind of wedding that makes the internet pause mid-scroll and then demand behind-the-scenes intel. Lucky for us, Jaz delivered.
After her wedding became a hot topic, Jaz did what any good big sis would do: she spilled the tea.
Instead of keeping her tips and mistakes to herself, she launched her bridal series to help other brides navigate the madness of planning “the big day.”
Then came the hacks we didn’t know we needed:
She tells brides to try on dresses IRL because sometimes the magic isn’t in the scrolling, it’s in the mirror. You know that trendy Vivienne Westwood corset dress, yup that didn’t look good on her.
Jaz revealed she took her bridal portraits days before the wedding, and alone, so she could be fully present on her actual wedding day. The photos? Timeless. The idea? Genius.
She broke down what’s worth the budget stretch (like scents you’ll associate with memories forever) and what you can totally skip.
She even tackled the hard questions, like guest list politics and what to do when bridal expectations don’t match reality.
Each video felt less like a polished tutorial and more like a FaceTime call from your cooler, wiser sister who’s not afraid to tell you when you’re being extra.
There’s something different about advice from a fellow bride. Jaz isn’t here to sell you a package or convince you to follow tradition just because it’s tradition. She’s here to tell you when to cut corners, when to invest, and when to skip the trends entirely.
