YOUR LOVE STORY

Cody and I met at age 12 at a swimming pool in Australia. We started dating a few years later and are now coming up on 15 years together! Cody proposed back in 2020 at a villa over dinner celebrating our anniversary in Tuscany. Our first wedding was just the two of us, we wanted our wedding to be for us not for a “wedding.” For our vow renewal we wanted it to feel just as special. We spent the weekend at one of our favorite hotels Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, California. Ordering room service, drinking champagne and eating cake for dinner and breakfast! 

FINDING YOUR DRESS

During NYFW in September 2025 I was able to try on gowns at KYHA Studios on Bond Street. Prior to this it was mainly planning and ideas for what I wanted. I brought my stylist Georgina with me to see all the possible looks and styles we could have for the big day. I knew I wanted a lace gown with a lace veil, and the KYHA team exceeded my expectations. I loved the thought of having a blushy nude dress instead of the traditional white for the vow renewal and my Gibson Gown came out perfect. The entire KYHA team was lovely, I couldn’t have asked for a better partnership. 

THE NON-NEGOTIABLES

A VHS camera to film the behind the scenes of the entire day, a lip liner and gloss for touch ups, matcha, and mochi. 

A HIGHLIGHT FROM THE DAY

Finishing our night back in our hotel room, popping a bottle of champagne and eating our delicious cake. It felt like we relived our original wedding day, I will never forget it. 

A WORD OF ADVICE FOR BRIDES TO BE

Just have fun and take the pressure off yourself. It's your special day, you can do whatever you want!
