There’s nothing we love more than seeing our gowns come to life on real brides - and this month, we’re thrilled to feature the beautiful Abi as our Real Bride of the Month!

Abi tied the knot on October 4th, 2024, in the heart of Seattle, Washington, in a wedding that was the perfect blend of timeless elegance and modern romance. With a chic black, white, and soft metallic color palette, every detail reflected a sophisticated yet heartfelt celebration of love and family.

 

When it came to her bridal style, Abi envisioned something classic, romantic, and effortlessly elegant - and Kennedy (Style Y12014) was the one. This clean, modern ball gown crafted from luxurious Pearl Mikado was everything she dreamed of and more. The off-the-shoulder neckline and dramatic bow detail on the back were true showstoppers, while the full pleated skirt with fabric-covered buttons down the chapel train gave her that royal moment she had always imagined.

 

“I truly felt like a princess that day,” Abi shared. “The dress was the perfect centerpiece of my bridal look, and it made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself.”

Abi found her dream gown at Samila Bridal and Formal in Seattle, and we couldn’t be happier she found her perfect match in Kennedy.

Her favorite memory? The emotional first look with her now-husband: “Seeing the look on his face when he turned around is something I’ll never forget. It made every moment of the planning process completely worth it.”

 

Congratulations, Abi! You were an absolute vision, and we’re honored you chose Sophia Tolli to be a part of your love story.
