Corryn Conyer
Ever since she saw the movie, “Sabrina,” Harlem bride Corryn Conyer has envisioned looking like Audrey Hepburn on her wedding day. When David Tutera met Corryn just three weeks before she walked down the aisle, he realized her wedding was far from having a Hollywood ending.
Ever since she saw the movie, “Sabrina,” Harlem bride Corryn Conyer has envisioned looking like Audrey Hepburn on her wedding day. When David Tutera met Corryn just three weeks before she walked down the aisle, he realized her wedding was far from having a Hollywood ending. Her bridal gown lacked sophistication and grace, but that was nothing compared to her bouquets made of sponges! Then when Corryn brought out the Styrofoam wedding cake, David sprung into action. His first stop is to give the bridal party fabulous retro bridesmaid dresses, and then a show stopping wedding gown for Corryn that would make even Audrey Hepburn jealous. Next, David surprises his bride by replacing her fake engagement ring with a spectacular diamond ring. And when Corryn thought David couldn’t do any more for her, he announces that her wedding will be moved to Twenty Four Fifth, a ballroom in what used to be the Fifth Hotel in New York City. Not only does the venue have the elegance of another era, but also for a “My Fair Wedding” first, David creates a beautiful ceremony space, then flips the same room to construct a glorious reception area that feels like a movie set in the 1950s.
