Bride of the Week: Jamie Kate Anthony

Bride of the Week: Jamie Kate Anthony

Written By Evie Pereira Mendoza

GL Bride Jamie's breathtaking Malibu wedding in the Finesse gown.

Friends and weddings are key components in any relationship, however for Jamie and Dougie, the wedding of a mutual friend was where they first met back in 2021. Despite living on opposite sides of the country, Dougie flew to California shortly after to take Jamie on their first date, and the rest is history.

"I can’t explain it, but as soon as I had my dress on for the first time, I just knew it was mine. Finesse felt like it was designed just for me"

Jamie

Fast forward three years, and Dougie proposed to Jamie in what was to become their wedding venue, a breathtaking Malibu house belonging to a friend. Jamie describes Malibu as ‘the most beautiful place in the world’, and it is clear to see why! Planning the wedding is part of the joy of getting married, and Jamie made sure to soak up every minute of it, planning each detail with care and ensuring their love shone through every moment.

Their wedding was filled with wonderful and unique moments, including a podcast interviewer who interviewed guests during cocktail hour, a carbonara station and even a tattoo artist doing custom flash tattoos during the reception.

Jamie looked radiant in the beautiful Finesse gown, sculptural lace crowning her big moment. She knew from the moment she tried on Finesse in the Galia Lahav LA Flagship that it was the gown for her. It was only the third dress she had ever tried, yet it was perfect. She felt as if it had been designed for and in that instant, she knew it was the one.

The moment that she put it on on the morning of the wedding, it finally sank in; her wedding day was here. As Jamie’s best friend, who had been by her side at every fitting, buttoned the dress up they both cried, seeing their childhood dreams come to reality and knowing that she was on the threshold of her happy ending. As each one of her fifteen bridesmaids came in, their reactions mirrored Jamie’s own; smiles, tears and pure joy emanating from them all.

Jamie and Dougie decided against doing a first look, so Jamie paused at the top of the aisle before walking down. This special moment, their first time seeing each other at their wedding is one of her most treasured moments from the most special day of their lives. It was just the start of a joyous and love filled day for them and their loved ones.

We wonder if any future GL Brides met their husband at Jamie and Dougie’s wedding… only time will tell.
