Some gowns don’t just dress a bride they define the moment. For her wedding day, our bride Monica chose Rosemary by Galia Lahav, a breathtaking ball gown that radiates couture craftsmanship, romance, and undeniable presence.
Rosemary is the embodiment of modern royalty. The gown features a sheer, pointed corset bodice with delicate straps and a clean square neckline, creating a sculptural silhouette that feels both timeless and fashion-forward. Intricate 3D lace appliqués are artfully layered across the bodice, adding texture, dimension, and a soft, romantic glow that catches the light from every angle. The structured corset offers impeccable support while maintaining an ethereal, barely-there elegance a signature of Galia Lahav’s iconic design philosophy.
The full ball gown skirt flows effortlessly from the fitted bodice, finished with a horsehair hem that adds volume, movement, and drama as Monica walked down the aisle. One of Rosemary’s most striking elements is its detachable illusion top adorned with delicate appliqués, offering versatility and a couture transformation throughout the day. Completing the look is a pointed train that trails behind the gown with regal grace, creating a truly unforgettable entrance and an equally stunning exit.
Monica’s wedding took place at the breathtaking Shadowbrook, a venue known for its timeless architecture and romantic atmosphere the perfect setting for such a statement gown. Every detail of the day was captured beautifully by Rafal Ostrowski Photography, whose imagery highlights the gown’s intricate lacework and dramatic silhouette, while Knotty Art Studio preserved the movement, emotion, and magic of the celebration in motion.
Monica’s bridal beauty was flawlessly executed with hair by Senada, styled in a way that complemented the gown’s romantic structure, and makeup by Jaysa Unz, delivering a soft yet striking look worthy of a couture bride.
At Bridal Reflections, we are honored to be part of moments like these where exceptional design meets personal love stories. Monica in Rosemary is the perfect reminder that true bridal couture is timeless, powerful, and unforgettable.
