Lisa Lafferty's Oceanside Wedding

Our #GLBride of the week is the beautiful Lisa Lafferty, who walked down the aisle in our GALA 1009 gown. The two made it official with a romantic rooftop ceremony overlooking the ocean at the Capri Palace in Anacapri, Italy. In the following interview, Lisa shares with us the details of her breathtaking destination wedding and how she found THE dress of her dreams.

"I knew I wanted a GLBride."

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

Chris and I connected on Facebook in 2014, after being FB friends. Chris happened to notice a specific picture of me and gave it a simple “like.” I then “liked” his profile picture and an online chat quickly ensued. After 45 minutes of a flirty and great online conversation, Chris asked me to meet. We met two days later on our first date in Malibu. Chris explained that when he first saw me, he beamed and couldn’t stop smiling, because, at that moment, he knew he had met his future wife. When I first saw Chris, I felt excited and optimistic, since we had such a great connection online, and I was hoping that we would hit it off just as much in person. Our first date was magical and 2 weeks and many dates later, we decided that we would be in an exclusive relationship and never looked back from there.

How did you find your perfect dress?

I knew I wanted a Galia Lahav gown for my wedding, but I felt like I wouldn’t have given any other dresses or designers a chance, if I was to go to the GL boutique, first. So, I decided to shop around a bit to see what else was out there from other designers, but I quickly realized my heart was set on a GL gown. Once I made my appointment to visit the GL flagship store in Los Angeles, there was no way I could have chosen another designer for my big day.

How was your experience with the Galia Lahav brand?

I had the most exceptional experience with Galia. From the moment I walked into the GL flagship in Los Angeles, I knew it was a perfect match. The team at the boutique quickly turned into family. They were so sweet, accommodating, and understanding with any questions or concerns I may have had. (Let’s be honest, I didn’t have many concerns with GL, but definitely had a few bridal jitters when selecting ‘the one!’) They have a dress/design for every bride’s taste. All of the designs are dreamy and elegant, with luxe fabrics and materials. I also love how Galia’s dresses have the finest details and are always well-fitted and very flattering!

What moment from your wedding will you never forget?

The moment that I said “I do” to my husband. I felt like the luckiest girl in the world to be able to marry my best friend in our dream location, in front of all of our closest family and friends.
