Gaby + Joe | June 23, 2012 | Tijuana, Mexico
The ceremony
The ceremony was held in a catholic church in my hometown of Tijuana. It was about 10 minutes away from the reception venue.
The reception
The reception was held in a recently constructed 12-story sustainable office building. Being in the architecture business, I visited several places looking for a venue that reflected my taste with modern, clean lines.
How Gaby found her dream wedding dress
I had heard of Vera Wang just by the media exposure she gets from some of her clients, and when I started my dress search I visited a store that carried some of her designs. I then decided to visit her store located in Los Angeles to try on a broader range of designs. When I tried on the Deidre dress, I knew it was the dress for me. The way her dresses are cut and the use of light, and high end materials just had no comparison to the other dresses I had tried on.
The way Gaby felt in her wedding dress
Elegant, modern, glamorous
Why she decided to sell her wedding dress
A lot of time and care goes into making a wedding dress…I don’t believe that they are meant to be worn only once and be stored away forever!
