Cheryl and her fiancé tied the knot at the historic NYC landmark, Cipriani 25 venue with a classic black tie wedding. In the following interview, Cheryl shares with us her favorite wedding moments and how dress shopping turned into a tear-jerking experience.

"The detail was out of this world."

How did you meet your husband? Tell us a little bit about your relationship.

We met briefly in college but never got to exchange information and went to colleges in different states. Until one summer 4 years later, my future husband found me on social media and we reconnected. We began speaking all day everyday and formed a special bond. We couldn’t focus on anything but each other and it was from there that our relationship began.

How did you find your perfect dress?

I knew I would never get married in anything but a GALIA LAHAV gown that was my dream. I went to Bridal Reflections on 5th ave in NYC and it was my first time trying on gowns and I only picked 5 Galia gowns to try on. My dress was the 3rd one I had tried and when I walked out of the dressing room, my parents and my in-laws both starting hysterically crying and I knew that was my dress. It was a very easy experience for me picking my gown!

How was your experience with the Galia Lahav brand?

My Galia Lahav gown made my wedding. I wouldn’t trade it for the world! I would advise any future bride to go with a Galia, you won’t be disappointed. The detail was out of this world. And comfortable at that! I’ve never gotten so many compliments in my life!

What moment from your wedding will you never forget?

His reaction when he saw me in my dress!!!! It was priceless! But also our 3D mapping light show. Cipriani partnered with Moment Factory and before we were announced they lit up the entire venue with a New York theme and showed a giant gold ball burst through the doors of Cipriani with a giant explosion and that’s what we came out to! Our guests definitely won’t forget it! =)
