Graziella and Rosario: All That Glitters

A magnificent and extravagant wedding was always on the cards for bride and groom Graziella and Rosario Puglia. Rosario is a wedding stylist, designer, and owner of Rossi By Design, Rossi Weddings and Events, and Bomboniere and Invitation Factory.

The duo knew of each other and had crossed paths over the course of 20 years, but had never been officially introduced until they met through mutual friends. Shortly after, their first date took place in the rolling hills of Bowral, which also became the inspiration Rosario needed to propose to Graziella. “I pretended to have meetings with clients for a wedding event consultation,” says Rosario. “The location was styled and filled with roses and candles. Fireworks that exploded into a ‘will you marry me’ sign filled the sky. She had no idea the set-up was for her until I knelt down and proposed.”

Once they chose their perfect location for their reception, everything started to fall into place. “The design ideas started flowing through,” says Rosario. “With gold-quilted invitations, red roses, gold channel chairs and crystal chandeliers, our theme and colours revolved around our stunning venue. I made sure gold quilting and an Italian design feel extended through the day and Gucci was my inspiration as it’s my wife’s favourite label. It started with our stunning invitations and ended with our unbelievable bomboniere.”
