>>MELANIE LAWSON: WELCOME BACK, EVERYONE. SO IT IS OFFICIALLY WEDDING SEASON IN
TO HELP MAKE YOUR DREAM DAY
EVEN MORE PERFECT. CELEBRITY
BRIDAL STYLIST MICAELA
ERLANGER JOINS US TO TALK
ABOUT EVERYTHING FROM CHOOSING
THE PERFECT DRESS TO THE DAY
OF JEWELS. SO GOOD MORNING.
THANKS FOR JOINING US TODAY.
>> GOOD MORNING. THANK YOU SO
MUCH.
>> YOU KNOW, FIRST OF ALL,
CONGRATULATIONS, I HEAR YOU
JUST GOT MARRIED. ONE THAT WAS
PLANNED JUST A COUPLE YEARS
EARLIER. BUT THEN THE PANDEMIC
GOT IN THE WAY. AND YOU LIKE
SO MANY OTHER BRIGHT HAD TO
RESCHEDULE THINGS. WHAT DOES
THAT FEEL LIKE? BECAUSE YOU
MAY HAVE THAT ONE THING IN
MIND 2 YEARS AGO AND THEN 2
YEARS FROM NOW, YOU MAY CHANGE
THINGS UP A LITTLE BIT.
>>JENNIFER WAUGH: WELL, I
DEFINITELY CAN RELATE TO SO
MANY COUPLES WHO HAVE BEEN
PLANNING AND RE PLANNING AND
POSTPONING AND NOW FINALLY
CELEBRATING THEIR BIG DAY. YOU
KNOW, IN MY CASE, I REALLY
TOOK IT IN STRIDE. AND WITH 3
POSTPONEMENTS, I DECIDED TO
PLANT 3 DAYS OF CELEBRATIONS.
I’M REALLY JUST FOCUSING ON
MAKING THE EXPERIENCE AS
PERSONAL AS CAN BE. AND AS A
STYLIST, I BELIEVE THAT THE
CLOSEST THING TO WALKING DOWN
THE RED CARPET IS WALKING DOWN
THE AISLE. AND SO I PERSONALLY
PAID EXTRA SPECIAL ATTENTION
TO WHAT I WAS WEARING, WHETHER
IT WAS THE DRESS OR
IMPORTANTLY.
>>MELANIE LAWSON: THE JEWELS.
YEAH, YOU KNOW, I I LEARN ON
AND THE CITY MCKAYLA THAT THE
DRESS SETS THE TONE. YOU KNOW.
SO IF YOU PICK THIS BIG, HUGE,
GORGEOUS DRESS, YOU KNOW, THE
WEDDING QAEDA HAS THE LOOK
THAT WAY, TOO. BUT IF YOU DO
SOMETHING LIKE A LITTLE MORE
MODEST, MAYBE YOU COULD DO
SOMETHING. A LITTLE MORE
ARRESTS TICK. WHAT DO YOU
THINK ABOUT THAT?
>> I DEFINITELY THINK THAT AND
I THINK RIGHT NOW WE ARE
SEEING SO MANY TRENDS AS IT
APPLIES TO THIS SUMMER AND
BEYOND. I THINK BIGGEST BACK.
I THINK WE ARE SEEING
DEFINITELY A LOT OF VARIETY IN
TERMS OF WHAT BRIDES ARE
CHOOSING TO WEAR AND THAT
FOCUS ON HAVING SOMETHING THAT
IS PERSONAL AND SPECIAL AND
UNIQUE TO THEM AS A COUPLE.
AND ACTUALLY I WAS SO EXCITED
BECAUSE FOR MY OWN WEDDING, I
HAD THE INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY
TO DESIGN AND JUST MY DRESS.
BUT MY WEDDING BANDS. I’M AND
IN COLLABORATION WITH DE BEERS
FOREVERMARK FOR THE
FOREVERMARK MICAELA
COLLECTION, WHICH I HAVE HERE
TO SHOW YOU TODAY. SO I REALLY
THINK THIS IDEA OF FINDING A
WAY TO ADD A PERSONAL
THROUGHOUT EVERY COMPONENT OF
YOUR WEDDING IS ONE OF THE
BIGGEST TRENDS THAT WE ARE
DOWN TO WHAT YOU WEAR. AND,
YOU THE BANDS THAT YOU CHOOSE
TO EXCHANGE AND I HAD TO HONOR
OF LAUNCHING HIS COLLECTION
ACTUALLY DURING THE PANDEMIC
ORIGINALLY EXCLUSIVELY IN
PLATINUM. AND IT WAS REALLY
IMPORTANT FOR ME TO DESIGN
LIKE MODERN TIMELESS STYLES
WHERE THERE WAS SOMETHING FOR
EVERYBODY BUT IN LIGHT OF THE
NEW TRENDS, WE ACTUALLY
DECIDED TO DESIGN AND EXPAND
THE COLLECTION INTO 18 KARAT
GOLD AND ROSE WHICH IS
AMAZING, MEANING THAT THERE’S
MORE CHOICE AND MORE
OPPORTUNITY FOR SO REALLY
SPECIAL. AND I WAS ALSO ABLE
TO INCLUDE THE RING THAT I
DESIGN FOR MYSELF IN THE
COLLECTION AS WELL SOME OTHER
ETERNITY BANDS. SO REALLY JUST
AN INCREDIBLE VARIETY AND IF
YOU DON’T KNOW THIS ABOUT
APPEARS FOREVERMARK NOT ONLY
ARE THE DIAMONDS INCREDIBLY
RARE AND INCREDIBLY SPECIAL
AND THEY GO BEYOND THE 4 C’S,
BUT THEY ARE RESPONSIBLY
SOURCED. SO YOU CAN FEEL
REALLY GOOD ABOUT WHAT YOU’RE
GOING TO WEAR. AND IF YOU HAVE
A CHANCE TO CHECK OUT
UNDERWOOD JEWELERS. ALL RIGHT.
THANK YOU, KAYLA AND GOOD
LUCK. FIRST COUPLE YEARS ARE
KIND OF ROUGH WHEN YOU GET
MARRIED.
