  • Wedding Style Spotlight: LGBTQ+ Wedding Outfits | Dinner for Shoes

    In Dinner for Shoes episode 32, Pizza Pies + Marrying the Kais, podcast host Sarah Wasilak talks through the wedding outfits her sister Rachel and Dinner for Shoes producer Megan wore for their Charleston nuptials. While Rachel chose three different looks — a custom sage green three-piece suit from Indochino, an ASTR The Label tuxedo romper, and SuitShop co-ords — Megan opted for a V. Chapman gown from Anthropologie. Sarah talks through the process of designing a bespoke suit with Indochino as well as some of the highlights of shopping at Anthropologie for a wedding dress as a bride-to-be. Since the Kais relaxed and enjoyed pizza pies after their beach ceremony, Sarah commemorated the moment with a slice from Dozzino, her own neighborhood pizza spot.
