Adriana Maiolo stuns in custom gown she designed herself for her Italian inspired nuptials
Today on The You and Me Podcast we chat with Adriana Maiolo - designer from Melbourne bridal boutique Kyha Studios.James and Adriana met through friends at school at 16 years old and amongst a few growth periods that saw them work through their own paths in life - came together to celebrate their wedding day at the gorgeous Stones of the Yarra Valley in regional VictoriaBeing a designer for a top bridal house - Adriana was privy to the inner-working minds of many brides as they went through the planning process however the design of her dress was at the forefront of her mind when her turn came around.The final product was a dress that was a little bit different, a little bit out there but a whole lot her! Adriana made sure that she was involved within the entire process to oversee the making of the dress and enjoyed being on the other side of such an important experience with owner of bridal house Kyha by her side.A top piece of advice she shared with us was to invest a little more in the important suppliers - don't spread yourself thin on having it all, compromise on those elements that don't mean as much to you as others and prioritise your spends so that what you're focusing on is what you will be reminded of when you look back on your wedding day.To see more of our couples, their wedding days, the incredible vendors we interview and a meme or two to pass the time, please visit @theyouandmepodcastFor a real life glimpse into the wedding world, follow international wedding planner and stylist Laura over at @wanderlust_creativeFor the best of bridal inspiration and a directory full of hand picked vendors to guide your way, follow Andie at @thebridaljourney Hosted on Acast.
