Calling all brides shopping for wedding dresses in New England and dreaming of an intimate destination celebration, Taylor’s romantic Lake Como wedding elopement is the perfect inspiration for you. You’ll adore the breathtaking Italian views, timeless black tie style, and refined bridal look. Taylor and Scott tied the knot in one of the world’s most iconic settings.
Taylor and Scott exchanged vows overlooking the water with the dramatic Italian mountains as their backdrop for their destination wedding in Italy. From the manicured villa gardens to their champagne toast on a classic wooden boat at sunset, every detail of their wedding elopement felt intimate, elevated, and incredibly romantic.
For her timeless wedding elopement in Italy, Taylor found her dream wedding dress with us at The White Dress by the Shore in Clinton, Connecticut. She selected the ‘Bartlett’ style wedding dress by Anne Barge, a sophisticated strapless bridal gown with clean lines and effortless structure.
Taylor was not brand new to us atThe White Dress by the Shore. Long before her engagement, she met our owner Beth’s sister while traveling abroad after high school. Years later, after moving to Connecticut and beginning her career in television, Taylor invited Beth to appear as a bridal expert for a live TV segment. What began as a professional connection soon turned into a friendship and Beth became a regular contributor on the news TV show. Taylor has even visited the bridal boutique and tried on wedding dresses for fun!
Taylor's Anne Barge Bartlett wedding dress features a structured strapless neckline and softly draped bodice for a flattering silhouette. Her gown flowed beautifully with its long skirt and shimmering satin. Paired with a sheer cathedral length bridal veil and a bouquet of romantic blue and ivory blooms, Taylor’s bridal look felt both modern and timeless, a perfect combination for a destination wedding elopement in Lake Como.
In Taylor’s own words…
“I cannot express enough how special the entire experience was. Beth and Erin knew exactly what I was looking for before I could even come up with words to describe it. From the dress, to the alterations and even the accessories. They truly care about their customers. And I felt so beautiful on my wedding day because of them. Love you all!”
