Eloping to Cuba, Alexandra and Pavel were inpsired by the spirit of Havana's Spanish colonial history and rustic essence.
From the bride "My fiancé and I had always dreamt of eloping in Havana, Cuba because it is a very sentimental and dear place to our hearts. Havana is the dignified old lady and she graces her visitors with her timeworn and magnificent presence; she is a country of indefinable magic!
I searched far and wide for a truly unique dress because as a former seasoned wedding consultant and a wedding stylist I have seen every kind of gown under the sun. While looking on Pinterest I accidentally stumbled across a blog post featuring the Jasmine dress from Australian designer, Lover the Label. My heart skipped a beat and I fell in love with the dress. Going off a photograph and some measurements, a friend who resides in Sydney was able to make the purchase and ship it to me in Canada. When the dress arrived I couldn't believe how feather-light it was! When I slipped into the dress, I felt a tingling sensation of excitement and butterflies followed by a sigh of relief. Finally, a gown after my own heart!
I have decided to use the money from the sale of my dress to acquire treasures for my new business endeavour, Tableauscapes. It has been a lifetime dream and passion to launch a luxury wedding tableware and event decor company.
