Sabina Gadecki's Boho Wedding Day in Our Fabiana Gown

Our #GLBride of the week is the lovely Sabina Gadecki, who tied-the-knot with her fiancé Tyler in our Fabiana gown. Complete with pampas grass, teepees, and vintage rugs, the couple held their hippy inspired wedding with a boho flair at the Saddle Woods in Tennessee. In the following interview, Sabina shares with us the moments she will cherish forever and the story of how she found her dream dress with us. As told by Sabina:

" No other dresses or team was quite like it."

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

My husband Tyler is a country singer, so a lot of our life is spent together on the road at shows, festivals, etc. So, it only seems fitting that we met at a music festival. I went to Stagecoach Festival in Palm Springs with a few girlfriend’s and met him there. He tells the cutest story about seeing me in the pit from the side stage and coming down to find me. It’s just so sweet. He said he purposely put him and his friend in front of us and tried to look like the funniest two guys there to try and attract our attention. I actually have a few videos of my friends and me during the show, with Ty in the background, moments before we even knew each other. Our lives revolve around music, fun, and soaking up each minute, so meeting somewhere like Stagecoach could not be more “us”.

How did you find your perfect dress?

I am the most indecisive girl ever, so you can only imagine how difficult it was for me to find the “perfect dress.” The best thing that I did throughout the process was to make little albums on my Instagram, and as I fell in love with something I would save the dress, the florals, etc into these albums. I was unintentionally creating mood boards along the way without even knowing it.

When it came time to go wedding dress shopping I noticed I had saved the same Galia Lahav dress in this album time, and time, and time again. But one thing I also learned in this process, is that I may love a dress on Instagram, but something about it didn’t always feel right in person. There was construction happening at Galia Lahav over the few days that I was wedding dress shopping with my Mama, and my bestie Ayesha Curry, so Galia Lahav was our last and final stop. And, needless to say, it was a no brainer. No other dresses or team was quite like it.

"..I felt an immediate warmth and sincerity from everyone working there. "

How was your experience with the Galia Lahav brand?

From the second I walked into the store, I felt an immediate warmth and sincerity from everyone working there. I worked with Kara personally, and she could not have been any kinder. I didn’t feel like I was another bride walking through the door, she was so lovely, patient, and thoughtful throughout the process.

I was also lucky enough that my wedding dress shopping weekend happened to land on the same weekend that designer Sharon Sever was in town from Israel. We worked hand-in-hand to create two of the most beautiful wedding gowns I’ve ever seen. I will forever be thankful for this incredible experience and his graciousness.

What moment from your wedding will you never forget?

I lost my little best friend (my doggy), Charlee, just a couple of months before our wedding. I had him for 11 years. He was supposed to walk down the aisle with Abby, Tyler’s 14 years old husky. But, he sadly passed shortly before our big day. Tyler planned a couple of surprises. He put a picture of Charlee around Abby’s neck for when she walked down the aisle. And, in our first dance area, Tyler had a surprise giant neon sign made of Charlee’s face and the words “Look At The Stars” right under it. The first lyrics of our first dance to “Yellow”, and also a notion to look up at the stars to see my boy watching us. Nothing more special than that

"I will forever be thankful for this incredible experience and his graciousness."
