Bijon Vaughn's Wedding Day in Mexico

Our #GLBride of the week is the gorgeous Bijon Vaughn, who married her best friend and love of her life in our Thelma gown. The two made it official with a luxuriously themed wedding in scenic Mexico. In the following interview, Bijon shares with us what she loved most about her special day, and the moment she realized our Thelma was the ONE.

"It was as if it was made for me!"

How did you meet your husband? Tell us a little bit about your relationship.

We met through my cousin Joss. They played football together in college and the three of us had all moved to LA around the same time. We instantly became platonic best friends and stayed that way for about 5 years until I invited him to my sisters’ wedding as my date and my family fell in love with him. The rest is history.

How did you find your perfect dress?

I have always followed Galia and have always loved Beyonce and loved her dress she wore for her vow renewal. I also knew that I wanted something glam but classy and figure-hugging, which is exactly what Galia is known for! After a couple of failed attempts and poor customer service at a bridal salon in LA, I decided to make an appointment at Galia’s flagship in LA. Anthony took amazing care of listening to what I wanted and after two appointments and trying on many dresses I was like “I’m sure this is out my budget but can I just try the “Beyonce” dress? I had no idea how much I would fall in love with it once I put it on. It was as if it was made for me!

How was your experience with the Galia Lahav brand?

Absolutely wonderful! Again, I can’t speak highly enough about Anthony and how he handled my experience. When I was worried he was helpful and when things were great he kept me on track to find the dress of my dreams!

What moment from your wedding will you never forget?

I will never forget the feeling of accomplishment that my husband and I shared when we first walked into our reception.

"The GL experience was absolute amazing."
