An Enchanted Evening at Gabriella New York Bridal Salon | Wedding Events

merci+new+york+gabriella+bridal+salonA few weeks ago, I enjoyed the most magical wedding industry dinner at Gabriella New York Bridal Salon... The decor, the details, the food, the entertainment... every component of this beautiful affair was so exquisite, it truly makes for some awe-inspiring wedding inspiration. We just had to share it with you...

As you can imagine, opening a soft, plush green and purple box promising an "Enchanted Evening" was definitely intriguing!

I loved the tactile tablescape details... and ceiling installation, which they cut and hung piece by piece. Once Stortz Lighting set a cool glow on them, it literally resembled a fresh snow-fallen forest!merci+new+york+gabriella+bridal+salonmerci+new+york+gabriella+bridal+salonmerci+new+york+gabriella+bridal+salonThe gorgeous floral design came compliments of Jessie at Rountree Flowers... That's little old me, above left, rocking one of her stunning floral head wreaths, which we were given when we entered Gabriella New York Bridal Salon. Aren't they the perfect nod to the Enchated Evening theme?

Gabriella New York Bridal Salon is one of my favorite places to bring our bridal styling clients... Nestled on the corner of 14th Street and Ninth Avenue in the Meat Packing District, it's literally our home away from home. Every time we step in the door, with clients new or old, Gabriella and her team make everyone feel like close girlfriends... They bring a sense of warmth, honestly and expertise to the dress shopping experience, which is so wonderful to see. Even though their doors were obviously closed for business for this gorgeous event, the vibe captured the same intimate sentiment that makes Gabriella's salon so special...
