Summer Of Love
There’s nothing quite like a summer wedding—salty air, windswept hair, and unforgettably long nights. At Galia Lahav, we know your special day can only be made better by the perfect gown made to match any bride’s venue and enhance her vision. Transport your guests into a world of whimsy with our atelier full of dresses made to outshine even the most beautiful of scenery. Whether you’re escaping to a tropical island for a sandy ceremony or eloping in a meadow full of blooms, we’re dedicated to capturing the magic of summer into every detail of your special day.
When it comes to choosing your outdoor venue, vineyards are the epitome of opulence and grandeur. Rolling vines against ancient estates and a sunlit aisle call for a dress as elegant as the setting. Play into an ethereal Tuscan fantasy with embellished gowns like Freya, whose luxurious beaded details and mermaid silhouette are quietly offset by a subtle blush tone. For a more traditional look, stick with a creamy silk dress like the Paloma, with a romantic sweetheart neckline and draping cathedral-length skirt sure to leave your guests in awe. Add atop a structural cape and sleek gloves to make this minimalistic dress your own, with rustic wine barrels and luscious greenery creating the perfect backdrop for a romantic vintage feel.
Coastal ceremonies have been all the craze, and what better time to plan your beach-side wedding than during the peak summer months? Whether you’re basking in the California sun or whisking your family and friends away to the tropics, a dress as carefree and whimsical as you is sure to take your day to the next level. For a sandy occasion, opt for lighter fabrics with sheer detailing like the Danny gown whose tired silk-chiffon skirt trails delicately in the wind, adding the perfect touch of boho. Don’t shy away from motifs either—the effortless Wonder dress from the new Symphony collection features delicate off-the-shoulder bows with an embroidered lace corset reminiscent of seashells, the ideal complement for the ultimate boho bride.
Nothing symbolizes a new beginning quite like blooming florals. Capture the true essence of your love story this summer amidst a sea of flowers, enveloping your journey with color and enchantment. Fully embrace the garden aesthetic in the Breeze gown, whose luscious a-line skirt is adorned with 3D applique lace leaves and a nude undertone that wraps the dress in warmth. Any outdoor wedding calls for an air of bouyancy, and the trailing embroidered train of the Bijou does just that. With textured French lace and a structured bodice, the graceful shape and cascading skirt is a personification of all things elegant, sure to capture the eyes of your loved ones while surrounded by a setting of love’s most timeless symbol.
The ideal summer doesn’t always need to revolve around the sun; the familiarity of the outdoors can take shape in the depths of the forest, where dark green hues and earthy scents add just the right amount of comfort and mystery for the nature-lovers ceremoney. Lean into your carefree nature with the playful embroidered florals of the Finesse gown, complete with billowing lace gigot sleeves that are perfect to take you from a canopied altar into the breezy night. There is perhaps no more perfect setting to experiment with color, and a black gown like the Onyx is sure to be your go-to. Under a string of lights and against a sea of towering trees, this black corset dress with dainty pearl detailing and a flowing tulle skirt is a seamless complement to such a dreamy location.
No matter which destination you choose for your dream day, Galia Lahav is along for the ride. From elegant, whimsical gowns to cascading appliqued veils and sleek accessories, your wedding day is sure to shine brighter than a summer sky with our atelier full of customizable couture.
