From a romantic garden proposal to a stunning celebration at a California winery, Mailin and Maykel’s love story bloomed from the very start. Their summertime wedding encapsulated everything important to their relationship: nature, faith and true love.
To match the romantic garden vibes, Mailin sparkled in Martina Liana Style 1483 for the big day—a dazzling ballgown with a corset-style bodice, floral lace and layers of sparkling tulle.
Read more about the special day and how Mailin made her dream dress a reality.
MAILIN, TELL US ABOUT YOUR PARTNER. HOW DID YOU MEET?
Maykel and I met at our local church. He proposed to me in my family’s garden, which inspired our outdoor wedding theme. He was emotional when he saw me in my dream dress and told me it was exactly what he imagined me in.
DESCRIBE YOUR BRIDAL STYLE. TELL US ABOUT YOUR DRESS SHOPPING EXPERIENCE.
I wanted to feel like a princess in my gown. Martina Liana Style 1483 was just what I was looking for to fit our garden-themed wedding. The corset-style bodice was both sexy and elegant, featuring floral lace embellishments. I loved how the sparkles throughout the full tulle skirt shined under the sun as I made my walk to the altar. There was even a hint of vintage elegance in the beautiful fabric-covered buttons down the back. It truly made me feel like a real-life princess!
IN YOUR OWN WORDS, TELL US MORE ABOUT YOUR WEDDING.
Our wedding had an outdoor garden theme and took place at the gorgeous Wolfe Heights Estates winery in Sacramento, California. The most special memory I have is saying my vows to my partner. I also loved being able to dance all night long in my ballgown!
Cheers to Mailin and Maykel!
