    85. VENDOR SPOTLIGHT: Lovellfaye | Bridal Design & Dress Reconstruction Studio

    Hello and happy Wednesday!! Today on The Busy Bride Podcast, I have the honor of chatting with Lovell, a designer in NYC who specializes in bringing heirloom wedding dresses back to life (spoiler alert - there are lots of cool ways to do that!)!! I photographed a reconstructed wedding gown at a gorgeous wedding last fall, so it was awesome to chat with Lovell and to hear the behind the scenes behind her incredible work. I can’t wait for you to listen!!! More about Lovellfaye ✄ Lovellfaye started as a bespoke designer for all areas of the wedding industry, including brides, mothers, guests, and flower girls. The business has grown tremendously since discovering an untapped market in the bridal industry – reconstructing heirloom wedding dresses to fit the modern-day bride. It is an honor to be a part of each bride’s wedding by bringing their heirloom dress dreams to life.  Over the past five years working in the bridal industry, I’ve worked with hundreds of wedding dresses spanning six decades in age. I’ve seen so many beautiful styles of wedding dresses across generations. I’ve worked with clients from Los Angeles to Miami, and I spent 2023 building a robust clientele in New York City.  My work with reconstructed wedding gowns has been featured in top local and national publications like Good Morning America, The Knot, D Weddings, Southern Bride, Carats & Cake and more.

    82. WEDDING TIP: Let's talk seating charts 🪑

    Hello and happy Wednesday!! Today on The Busy Bride podcast, I'm coming to you solo to talk all things seating charts!! I actually just created the seating chart for my very own wedding yesterday lol, so this is top of mind for me! I walk you through the most common AND the most creative seating charts I've seen as a wedding photographer. And if you're taking the time to read this, I'll tell you which seating chart I chose to do 🤭 It's actually not included in this episode because I saw the idea after recording this!! I will be getting a painting that matches the wildflower, outdoorsy vibe of our wedding and then will be taping each table's names onto it! I'm excited to see how it turns out 😆 Connect with Gabriella 🌞 Website: www.gabriellamariephotography.com Instagram: @gabriellamarieaudi TikTok: @gabriellamarieaudi Pinterest: Gabriella Marie Photography Wanna be intentional about your season of engagement?
