Eleganza Real Bride: Alexandra

How would you describe your Eleganza Experience?

Everything about the boutique was fitting to me. From the decor to the gowns to the customer service. Such a stunning boutique with amazing gowns & attention to detail.

Would you like to share with us your proposal moment, favourite part of planning your wedding or what you have planned for your honeymoon?

I was proposed to on a sunset boat trip in Aruba which lead to us book our wedding in the Caribbean (Dominican republic) my favourite part of my wedding was choosing the small details & personalisations. I also loved my dress fittings, falling in love with my dress over & over again. We are preparing for our honeymoon next month in the Maldives.

Tell us more about your Eleganza Iconica gown!

I had previously tried dresses in a different boutique & was just not finding the look I had always imagined myself in. After scouring instagram I came across eleganza sposa and found the dress I really wanted to try on! On visiting the boutique I tried the dress and on and I loved it instantly. I did try more on as I wanted to give other looks a try but kept coming back to the dress I originally found & kept referring to it as ‘my dress’ I loved the fact it had been saved on my phone months & now it was mine!

What was your inspiration for your wedding? Did you follow a specific theme or colour palette?

My theme and colour pallet was ivory & gold (most my house is this colour scheme) the only colours I never get bored of I find it is timeless & classy. I knew I wanted my flowers to all be white so we had a mix of hydrangeas (my favourite) & white roses. I wanted an elegant themed that also had a royal look but not too in your face.

Tell us more about your Big Day!

Our day was magical from start to finish! Quickest day of our lives but everything I imagined & more! I couldn’t have asked for a nicer set up & the weather was stunning. My dress was big but really accommodated the weather as the skirt had a slit & really helped keep under the skirt airy.

What was the most memorable moment?

Apart from the ceremony I loved our first dance & our entertainment, we had a fire show which was so different! After that we had a silent disco which our guests really enjoyed.

Do you have a favourite picture from your wedding day? Why is this image so special to you?

My ultimate favourite picture was our alter picture. Just the stunning blue sky & our flower set up with our first kiss. A beautiful moment captured.
