Sarah and Zach in the Oceania Gown
A love that always felt right, a wedding on Lake Como, and the moment Sarah slipped into Oceania and knew the search was over.
It Felt Right from the Beginning
Some love stories begin long before either person knows it. Growing up right around the corner from one another, Sarah and Zach were always meant to find their way to each other. The kind of love that feels safe, genuine, and just right. From the very first date, Sarah knew he was different. There was something that simply felt right. The kind of love that never leaves you questioning. The kind that holds you, quietly and constantly.
On a lazy afternoon of homemade limoncello spritz and favourite records spinning in the background, Zach asked Sarah to spend forever with him, ring in hand, having picked it up just days before. It was the easiest yes. Sarah had a slight inkling something was coming, “It was the most nervous I had ever seen him.”

A Perfect Day on Lake Como
Laglio, Italy was always going to be the place. These two high school sweethearts chose the shores of Lake Como to make it official, surrounded by the people they love most. No first look, the reveal was saved for the aisle, where vows were read and the kind of memories were made that linger long after the day is done. The celebration continued out on the water, aboard a Riva boat gliding down Lake Como, with cheers and honks carrying across the lake. A moment they both wish they could relive, again and again.
“It was the most perfect day.”
The Moment the Search Was Over
When searching for her dress, Sarah was after something simple yet elegant. Having dreamed about the day and her dress she originally was set on Goldie, as she loved the high neck paired with the open back. But it was the moment she slipped into Oceania that everything changed.
She travelled to our New York City boutique with her mum and sister, ready to find the one. After being fitted into a slip dress and having her measurements taken, her stylist selected her top 5 gowns for Sarah to try on. Oceania was the second dress she put on, and from the moment the search was over. The luminescent pearl like shine and weightless texture were unlike anything she had tried before, and for an outdoor summer destination wedding, it felt like it had been made for exactly that moment.
Advice from the Bride
“My advice would be to not sweat the small stuff. Everything works out in the end just perfectly and things play out exactly as they were meant to. Remember to enjoy the day and be as present as possible because it goes by so quickly.”
