All that hard work led to a sleeveless tulle creation that had over 500,000 sequins and a 14-foot train for the ceremony.

The second gown, which Mourad wore to the reception, was a corseted ballgown with another 650,000 sequins and 150,000 Swarovski crystals. “I felt at ease and could not get in better hands,” Mourad said. “We only had a few fittings. He understood my personality and created two gowns unique that suit perfectly who I am.”

That is some serious fairytale confection, if you ask us. And people on social media have been equally effusive.
The design house posted some images of the couple on Instagram. “In a touching ceremony filled with moments of anticipation and joy, @eliesjr & @kikamourad celebrated their nuptials yesterday at the patriarchate of Bkerke in Lebanon surrounded by family and friends,” the caption read. “Wishing the couple eternal happiness and everlasting love in their future together #ElieKika”
“I met my father-in-law, Elie Saab, ten years ago and told him on that day that I would like him to realize my wedding gown,” Mourad told Brides. “Ten years after, my dream came true.”
