Marielle’s Wedding

"I married the love of my life wearing the most show-stopping Mariana Hardwick gown, complete with the bolero and veil of my dreams, pure drama in the most elegant way.

From the moment I first saw this dress while scrolling Instagram for inspiration, I knew it was the one. When I officially began my dress shopping journey, I searched for trunk shows near me and saw that Mariana Hardwick would be at The Ivory Concept in Pennsylvania. I had one of her gowns saved as my vision of the perfect wedding dress, so I knew I had to go, even though I wasn’t sure if that dress would be there.

I had always been drawn to Mariana Hardwick’s designs for their elegant, timeless, couture aesthetic. The moment we walked into the store, there it was, Vienna, front and centre. Although I had pulled a few other dresses to try on, I asked to try Vienna first.

I never tried on another dress that day.

Vienna was everything I had ever dreamed of and more. I knew instantly I could never love another gown the way I loved that one. I have never received so many compliments in my life, and I have never felt more beautiful, confident, or radiant than I did wearing that dress on my wedding day.

Thank you for creating something so breathtaking, a gown that didn’t just make me feel like a bride, but like the very best version of myself." - Marielle
