This season’s HOT PICKS are dedicated to the brides who are buying anywhere from three to six pairs of shoes specifically for their series of wedding events.
For brides who are planning out their wedding wardrobes, exquisite evening wear and designer wedding dresses often go hand-in-hand.
Rather than wearing one wedding gown throughout the entire day, many brides will slip into a different gown for the wedding reception; and some have multiple dress changes throughout the entire evening, expressing themselves with a full-on bridal fashion parade.
Once the wedding ceremony has concluded and traditional wedding photos have been taken, brides have the opportunity to experiment with the more artistic side of fashion.
Aruna Seth and Thomas Adolff instantly hit it off after being introduced through mutual friends over a decade ago. The conversation flowed naturally, and it seemed as if they’d known each other forever.
Rather than diving right into a relationship, however, several years passed before they crossed paths again – although Aruna and Thomas couldn’t stop thinking about each other throughout that time span.
Finally, on Halloween, the two rekindled their connection and seamlessly picked up right where they left off. This eventually led to an engagement on a summer’s evening, when Thomas proposed with a gorgeous Russian blue kitten – who the couple named Lucas – who had an engagement ring tied to his collar.
Arianna Swafford and Richard Robinov’s wedding story began with a destination engagement in Amsterdam, when Richard proposed during a progressive dinner aboard a beautiful private canal boat. Afterwards, the couple enlisted the help of Andrea Eppolito – the top wedding planner in Las Vegas – to orchestrate the wedding planning process.
“I immediately fell in love with Arianna and Richard from the first moment we met,” Andrea recalls. “They have such a beautiful energy with one another.
The groom is so funny and quick witted, and the bride just looks at him with such adoration. The bride is in fashion and has a stunning eye for detail, and together they have built such a beautiful life. When it came to the wedding, they were deeply committed to the idea of being transformative in their space, and they wanted to really treat their guests to an extraordinary evening of food, wine, and service.”
Kristina Khachunts was working at a bank when she first laid eyes on Serge Karapetyan. She was standing outside and noticed Serge looking at her with a sideways glance as he parked his car. Serge proceeded to go inside the bank, complete his transaction, and promptly left.
“I remember thinking, ‘First off, who is this guy; and second, why is he so full of himself?’’ Kristina recalls. “In reality, I was drawn to that. He later found me on Instagram and reached out a few times, but I did not respond. Then, one day, I was walking to my car from my new job.
I looked up and saw him again, walking right past. I thought to myself, ‘What a coincidence.’ I knew then that there would be something special with him. After months of him reaching out to me on Instagram, I decided to respond to him and give him a chance finally.”
