How did you meet your husband? Tell us a little bit about your relationship.
Tinder. Neither of us had been in a relationship for several years and are pretty career-driven people. I had moved from a small town in Ontario to Australia, New York, and Montreal for my education and to build my career in fashion. Kyle had similarly moved from Ottawa to Nova Scotia and to Toronto for his education and career in tech. We were both happily single and living in different cities, but interested in settling down for something special.

How did you find your perfect dress?
Ever since I was a little girl who insisted on dressing herself. I’ve always been obsessed with clothing and style. After getting engaged, I started looking for inspiration and had some very specific details on my list: form-fitting, dramatic train, texture, and low back. After trying on a few gowns, I realized a plunging neckline was the most flattering. Before visiting White for the Galia Lahav trunk show, I was very close to creating a custom wedding dress.

As soon as I put on this gown, my mom and I knew it was the one. Galia Lahav had designed the dress of my dreams, it had all the details I was looking for and more: silk floral appliques, luxurious fabrics, and the fit was amazing. The shoulder veils were a beautiful surprise – It absolute perfection!

How was your experience with the Galia Lahav brand?
Exceptional – My dress was delivered 3-4 months earlier than expected! I felt romantic and classic in my gown and loved how it was uniquely stylish. The intricate details were stunning for our wedding photos. I also had the best Man of Honour who was always there to help with the train and veil.

What moment from your wedding will you never forget?
Standing in front of our friends and family feeling loved and grateful as we start our life together.
