THE BIG DAY by Fiancee
Updated: Jun 26
By María Fernanda Cueva
HiExpat: Thank you very much María Fernanda for collaborating with us on this eighth edition of HiExpat magazine. This edition is focused on weddings and marriages in Ecuador, and who better than you as the owner of “Fiancee,” to tell us a little more about the world of brides and the perfect dresses for this big day. Could you start by telling our readers how Fiancee was born?
Ma. Fernanda: Fiancée was born 16 years ago due to the need for a physical space when planning for Ecuadorian brides. We want to make women happy on one of the most important days of their lives so we have different designs, exclusive models, and a priority to make brides feel their best when choosing their dress.
My mother Lucía Cevallos thought of the idea which has now turned into our full time jobs. We feel a true sense of pride when Fiancée's designs are seen at parties and weddings through our dresses. I joined my mother's dream and began to learn about fashion, thus leading me to develop this passion for design.
HiExpat: Carrying out a wedding involves excellent planning and one of the most important steps in this planning is choosing the bride's dress. Could you tell us a little about the process that takes place with a bride when she arrives at Fiancee looking for her dream dress?
