When The Bridal Finery of Winter Park, FL chose to bring fashion back with their Ines di Santo Florida fashion show, they created their very first intimate vendor bridal show that was stunning for all invited.
The photos from the event were captured by Alex Michele Photos and thank you Jeffrey Stoner Video for the amazing behind-the-scenes video.
Roberta and Tali, Owners of The Bridal Finery, chose to showcase designer Ines Di Santo. “We wanted to represent a different variety of dresses from lace, clean lines, beaded, sleek and even a few shorter modern dresses. We highlighted a textured cape, feathered bolero and a beaded and detachable skirt to some of the dresses to add that extra element of drama and flare. We also carry a large collection from other designers available for both off the rack and re-order.”
The event began with a special invite designed and sent by Eleven Note.
From there, Makeover Station provided Hair & Make-up for all models, adding in the stunning pieces by Maria Elena Headpieces for jewelry and headpieces that took the styling to an extra element of complimenting beauty.
With Central Florida Wedding Professionals, Social Influencers and Bridal Enthusiasts in attendance, enjoying champagne and snacks provided by Bakers Cottage Cakes, the morning started in the boutique, seeing an array of dresses The Bridal Finery offers.
Guests were then introduced to The Bridal Finery’s newest bridal suite, where The Bridal Finery can host full private accessories styling and private alterations appointments. The juxtaposition of industrial with wedding delicacy was remarkable, especially with the flower wall and floral touches throughout by Raining Roses Productions at the end of the runway, Elegant Entertainment provided the pipe and drape to soften the industrial look, RW Events provided the seating and serving pieces, all fit within the sleek and modern styles showcased.
Bri Marbais of The Bridal Finery shared, “Our DJ Rocks did an incredible job with the lighting for the show and the grand finale cloud effect for the final walk. It really elevated the runway and heightened the experience for guests.”
With multiple shows over a two-day period, The Bridal Finery certainly showcased a variety in the designs and colors of the gowns. Bri shared, “We offer a little bit of everything for brides when it comes to the entire look, dress, veil and accessories. We wanted to stay true to our brand by representing that on the runway.”
Roberta and Tali were delighted with the final rendition of their Ines di Santo Florida fashion show. “The concept of this show was more edgy and modern through the use of black and white and a sleek design and we did that. We look forward to what the bridal fashion and the wedding design world will bring to next year’s Fashion.”
