Laura Parks' Beachfront Wedding

Our #GLBride of the Week is Laura Parks, who wore our G-104 from the GALA No.VI collection down the aisle. She married her fiancé Darren in Marbella Spain at the beautiful Puente Romano Beachfront Resort. In the following interview, Laura shares with us the details surrounding her glamourous wedding and how she found the perfect dress for her special day. As told by Laura:

" It really did feel as close to a fairytale as you could get."

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

We worked for the same radio/media company but I was based in Scotland and Darren in England. On Valentine’s day my boss shared a picture of Darren via email which I quite liked the look of! So my boss sent an email to Darren to say I would look after him when he was coming to our station for a charity day. Unbeknown to me a picture of myself was also sent to Darren which he also quite liked the look of! On the day we met we were wearing the exact same outfit! Black jeans, black boots, white t-shirt and a denim shirt. It was definitely an ice-breaker. It was love at first sight…which I didn’t even know existed until that moment. He really is my best friend and soul mate…6 years on we love ‘doing life’ together.

How did you find your perfect dress?

I actually saw it on the Galia Lahav Instagram page and knew it was the one! I was going to a Galia Lahav trunkshow at Browns Bride and asked if the dress would be there for me to try. Lauren at Browns Bride took the name of the style and said she would do her best to get the sample at the trunk show. She got it! As soon as I put it on I just knew it was my dress. GL’s head designer Sharon Sever also agreed! I didn’t want to take it off!

How was your experience with the Galia Lahav brand?

It was an amazing experience I will remember forever. The girls at Browns Bride were so lovely and professional. Meeting Sharon also made my experience. His input and him taking my measurements for the dress was extra special. Every fitting really was magical and the dress was everything.

What moment from your wedding will you never forget?

It’s so difficult to pick one thing but probably walking down the aisle to my future husband in my dream dress. As soon as I saw his handsome face my nerves disappeared. Also partying into the night with all our family and friends on the best day of my life. It really did feel as close to a fairytale as you could get.
