Gilded Social Bride

Anna Talarico Luxford

The Story

Anna found us via a recommendation from one of our fave wedding planners, Ashley Stephan. Anna was dreaming of something feminine, tailored, and A line, but beyond that, she had a beautiful open mind! Luckily, I had just the dress. All she needed to do was say YES!

YES was just the beginning for Anna as she and her crew became one of the most Gilded of Tribes there ever was. She consulted us for nearly everything wedding fashion related. And we were just thrilled to be that for her. Of course, the icing on the cake was dressing & detailing both her girls AND the guys on wedding day. Seeing it all come together is always such a treat.

On wedding day, Anna’s mom had a surprise lined up that I will never forget. Anna loved the bow on her dress so much that her mom surprised her by having a fondant replica made to decorate her wedding cake! If that doesn’t say “I’m obsessed with my dress,” I don’t know what does.

It has been such a pleasure to stay in touch with Anna ever since. She really is what Gilded dreams are made of.

The Review

“Gilded Social was our one stop shop for bridesmaid dresses, my dress, alterations, wedding day dressing, and preservation. Tanya and the GS team supported our vision and needs with tremendous expertise and enthusiasm. We had a morning wedding with a very tight schedule, and Tanya’s day-of services were the extra bit of care that gave us peace of mind. I love that the Gilded Social experience is so personal and unique, and our day wouldn’t have been the same without Tanya. Even months after our wedding, I’m in awe of the role Tanya played in our day - we can’t thank her enough for tying together the styling, logistics, and details so beautifully!”
