In the case you’re all tucked into bed on a Friday night and about to embark on a wild night of stalking, fabulous Aussie blogger Nicole Warne AKA Gary Pepper Girl on Instagram casually got married the other day… and had five custom-made wedding looks.
FIVE.
If you’re blanking a little, this is she.
Nicole’s one of the OG insta-bloggers and has often stuck up for her social media pals when the fashion industry copped heat for letting influencers sit front and centre at fashion shows.
Anywhoo, Nicole and Luke Shadbolt tied the knot in the most beautiful New Zealand ceremony e v e r and the photos are up on Instagram.
Prepare to feel lonely, even if you’re in a damn relationship.
Sweet Jesus.
Of course, none other than the Fashion gods at Vogue got the wedding scoop since Nicole is a massive name in the industry.
Being the absolute power couple they are, Luke designed the wedding invitations because he’s also a graphic designer while Nicole took care of all the lush details.
Luke and his pals were in custom Giorgio Armani tuxedos while Nicole’s bridesmaids wore custom Dion Lee.
According to the exclusive by Vogue, Nicole teamed up with one of Sydney’s leading florists Myra Perez from My Violet to make all her floral dreams come true.
“I wanted each part of our wedding to have its own floral moment, from the ceremony, to the reception, to the dance hall, to the courtyard—they all had different colour schemes, but needed to feel like they were telling a cohesive story.”
There were garden roses, hydrangeas, dahlias, delphinium, Japanese Windflowers, cosmos, and local foliage.
Don’t try and imagine how much that’d cost, it’ll mentally hurt you.
And as for those five custom bridal looks…
“I always knew I wanted to wear a mix of international and Australian designers but nothing too bridal… so I ended up with five custom looks for the three-day celebration.”
Welcome drinks? Custom pant look by Maticevski
Brunch? A custom Michael Lo Sordo dress.
The main wedding dress? Valentino Haute Couture complete with a Valentino silk veil.
For the reception? A custom white velvet Oscar de la Renta dress.
The after party? Dion Lee.
And jewellery? Cartier diamond studs with a matching bracelet and necklace that can be passed down to her children and so on.
Oh and then after the wedding ceremony,
“The newlyweds and the wedding party hopped in two helicopters that took them up to Roys Peak, a nearby mountain only five minutes away, for wedding photographs.”
