Hiring Farrah to help plan our wedding was the best decision we made in the wedding planning process!!!! We truly cannot recommend her highly enough.
Farrah is a wealth of wedding knowledge, and she goes above and beyond for her clients. Throughout the wedding planning process, she was incredibly responsive to all our (many, many) questions and requests and was so easy to work with. She came to every meeting (from meetings with the venue, to dress fittings to florists to the band), and made them all way less stressful and way more fun!!! She listened to and addressed any concerns we had, created the perfect wedding timeline for us and made sure we thought of absolutely everything (including the little details that only a pro would know about) so that the big day would go smoothly.
On the day of the wedding, Farrah was amazing!!!! She is truly the person you want in your corner on your big day. She kept everything running smoothly so that my parents, my husband and I didn't have to worry about anything and could just enjoy the day. Not only is she super organized and able to get things done calmly under pressure, she also just emanates joy and fun!! She is the type of person you want on speed dial in the months leading up to the wedding and in your bridal suite on your big day.
My friends and my mom's friends were so impressed with Farrah that several of them asked for her contact information afterwards, and my maid of honor is working with Farrah for her wedding this coming year. She and her fiancé are already in love with Farrah (and for good reason). She is the best!
I can't thank Farrah enough for everything she did for us, and I would recommend her to everyone!
I hired Farrah 4 months before my wedding to help me accessorize my wedding dress (e.g. accessories, shoes, and veil), pick out bridesmaid dresses and groomsmen outfits, and picking out a 2nd look for my reception.
Unfortunately, during the 4 months we worked together Farrah was often unresponsive to my requests, and ultimately did not complete the services I had hired her for.
Example 1: I had hired her to help me pick out a veil. However, I ended up just sourcing my own veil in the end because the veils she selected for me (via internet links) either wouldn't come in time, or were too short or of poor quality tulle. Additionally, it took her forever to respond to me whenever I had a question for her, and her lack of response was jeopardizing the shipping deadline for me to receive my veil.
Example 2: I had hired Farrah to find a 2nd look for my wedding, but she didn't do any work on it for 8 weeks after I hired her. By the time I followed up to see what her progress was, we were well within 60 days of the wedding. By that time, I felt that I could no longer buy made-to-order pieces and needed to find a dress ASAP to ensure alterations and accessorizing are done in time. As a result, I had to terminate Farrah from doing this task even though she jeopardized my timeline for finding a 2nd look due to her procrastination on this assignment.
Example 3: Farrah promised "head to toe" lookbooks for each girl for the bridesmaid looks, but ultimately only delivered a set of bridesmaid dress options to me. This was also after a 5-6 week delay during which no work was done by Farrah, which led to a severe limitation to the bridesmaid dresses my bridesmaids could choose from (they had less than 8 weeks to order and alter). Additionally, Farrah did not deliver on the "head to toe" looks she originally promised - I had to personally accessorize the girls with shoes and jewelry in the end.
Example 4: I hired Farrah to provide recommendations on groomsmen outfits, including picking out a gift set of bowties and pocket squares for the guys. I repeatedly followed up with Farrah to get her recommendations for the bowtie and pocket square gift sets given we had to select and order it in time for our destination wedding, but she did not respond to me despite 4 text messages (spread out over the course of a week) and 1 email asking about it. Ultimately, I gave up trying to contact her and just picked something out myself.
Farrah would often overpromise and underdeliver - she would often tell me she'd send something "today" when in reality it takes more than a week (and numerous follow ups from me) to get the deliverable from her. I personally didn't find her styling services worth it - I felt that I had to endure a lot of frustration and radio silence during the styling process, which would have been avoided if I just went with another stylist or just styled myself.
We love collaborating with Farrah! She is a true gem in the wedding industry! Her seamless coordination as a planner and impeccable styling skills make her a double delight for brides. From envisioning each aspect of your wedding to ensuring every dress detail is styled seamlessly, Farrah's dedication is unmatched.
If you want a wedding that reflects your unique style and unfolds effortlessly, Farrah is the visionary you need. We are grateful for her expertise in both styling and planning during all the weddings we’ve worked on together. Farrah’s invaluable expertise makes for an unforgettable wedding experience
Forget the flowers, forget the band, the ONLY outside vendor that matters is FARRAH with FAB STYLING. As someone who is extremely close with their sister, mom, girlfriends and had a fantastic wedding planner, I still can't emphasize enough how crucial it was to have Farrah by my side during the lead up to my wedding and on the day of my wedding. She is so experienced, professional and knowledgeable but also makes you feel like you've been friends your entire life. On the morning of my wedding, we found out that a significant part of the veil and additional piece of the dress was detached. Panic? Nope! Farrah to the rescue. She hand-sewed it and if it wasn't for her, I honestly do not know what I would have done. It was also just so reassuring knowing that the entire day Farrah was there to support me, hydrate me and keep me calm! The reality is that your family and wedding planner are so preoccupied and excited that it's just such a relief to have someone like Farrah exclusively dedicated to helping you. I can't stress enough how important it is that every Bride have a Farrah by their side on their wedding day!
FARRAH IS A BRIDES' BEST FRIEND! Farrah came highly recommended from a family friend and I couldn't be happier that we hired Farrah for our wedding day. Farrah went above and beyond just being a bridal stylist for me. She came to pick up jewelry with my mom and me as well as came to every single dress fitting. Her knowledge and expertise in the bridal industry is so crucial and really helped me feel confident during my dress fittings to make sure we loved the final product.
Then the actual wedding day, Farrah was a GEM! She stood by my side the whole day making sure my dress looked perfect in every single shot, making sure my dress did not get dirty during pictures, and SO MUCH MORE!
My family and friends fell in love with Farrah, not to mention that every vendor loves working with her! Cannot recommend her enough.
Farrah, our wedding saving grace! We hired Farrah about two months out from our wedding and I can’t imagine not having had her in that final stretch with us. She attended all of my dress fittings, providing helpful guidance and feedback along the week. Even helping us troubleshoot some last minute dress mishaps along the way.
On the wedding day, Farrah had such calming yet fun energy that was felt by everyone in our bridal party. She seamlessly got me in/out of my dress and even helped one of my bridesmaids fix a zipper that broke just hours before the ceremony. If you are on the fence about hiring a day of stylist, I can assure you it will be worth it 10x over! No one better than Farrah!
I cannot even put into words how amazing Farrah is. We hired Farrah when I got engaged to be there on the day of my wedding and learned she also helps brides find their wedding gowns. I had no idea where to begin so we we decided to hired her for that service as well and it was the best decision we ever made. Farrah booked every bridal salon appointment for me, briefed the consultant on what I was looking for, met with me and created a portfolio of dresses I had sent her and others she thought I would love. The day we went shopping for my gown was amazing and so relaxing. I found my gown at our first stop and could not have been happier. Farrah then came with me to every fitting, helped calm my nerves as it got closer to the wedding, and made sure everything was in order the day of. Having her there the day of my wedding was amazing. She ran the party, made sure all vendors knew what they were doing, created our timeline, got us to our places on time and was such a calming force the entire day. I cannot recommend Farrah enough to any future brides, she really made our whole experience wonderful from start to finish. Even though my wedding is over I have stayed in touch and have a friendship that I am so grateful for.
Farrah! Truly can’t say enough nice things about her… Knowledgeable, professional, and with an eye for details and every part of wedding dresses and styling. She is extremely well connected and respected in the industry. She is kind and supportive and honestly felt like a friend from the very beginning. We started working together late-ish in the game when I was having issues with my dress alterations and that’s really my only regret - I wish we could have taken advantage of more of her services earlier on! She came to all my fittings and personally ensured my dress looked and fit perfectly. She was by my side the entire wedding day, transporting my dress, helping me get ready, ensuring my dress was laying beautifully for all photos, holding my purse, and just making sure I had everything I needed. She’s the BEST. I truly couldn’t recommend her services more.
Getting Farrah's help in finding my sister's wedding dress was my wedding gift to her. It was absolutely the best gift I could have given, and an investment that was 100% worthwhile.
Like many brides, my sister had never been wedding dress shopping, but unlike many of our friends, she hadn’t spent time looking at wedding magazines/pinterest and had no idea where to begin when looking for her Western dress (we also had an Indian ceremony planned for the same day, so the task of finding the clothes for the wedding was extremely overwhelming, especially during the pandemic). On top of this, my sister is passionate about fashion but rarely wears dresses, so she felt a lot of anxiety about finding a dress. I knew that there had to be someone who could help us, and I am SO happy I found Farrah.
Farrah is reassuring, validating, and when she expresses an opinion, you know to take it seriously. She wants every bride to feel their absolute best, and because she does not impose her personal style on clients, we fully trusted her judgment. For example, my sister often wears off-the-shoulder tops and was initially thinking about an off-the-shoulder dress. Farrah emphasized from the beginning that wedding dress shopping is unlike “normal” shopping, and she gently encouraged my sister to try new styles she might not otherwise have chosen. Instead of flouncy, loose tops my sister usually wore, Farrah continued to show us how a structured bodice with a very defined waist and a large skirt would best flatter my sister’s figure. At the same time, she was never didactic, and always open to whatever we wanted to look at. But her professional understanding of the silhouettes that work best for different bodies was invaluable.
One of Farrah’s greatest assets while shopping was her expertise in fitting. Many shops carry impossibly small sample sizes, but Farrah said she had never worked with a bride who couldn’t fit into a dress on an initial visit. With bands and clips, she (far better than anyone who worked at the stores) was able to give us a sense of what the dress would look like when made custom.
When my sister tried on an Oscar de la Renta dress with layers of pleated tulle that gave the illusion of feathers, it was not what she had expected. She was almost certain she’d find something printed, high/low, and nontraditional, and was surprised to find that a white, full-length gown was perfect. It had the drama to match her personality as well as the softness to match the venue. Seeing my sister smile, radiant with glee, when she found her dress was a highlight of the whole wedding process for me, especially when the thought alone of trying on dresses had once caused so much stress.
Farrah also flew to Miami for the wedding. She brought the wedding dress, as well as my dress. She steamed the wedding dress was so attentive, always offering to do anything to make my sister’s day easier.
If you’re on the fence about whether to invest in a stylist, I highly recommend Farrah’s services, especially if you/the bride are not familiar with the bridal space or have angst about finding your dress. We found my sister’s dress in one weekend, and in going to designer boutiques, we felt at ease having Farrah with us.
Finally, as a person, Farrah is lovely, personable, and kind. She has been generous with her time and attention — before, during, and after the wedding. Our whole family became close with her and we now see her as a friend. Thank you, Farrah <3
Having Farrah there on my wedding day was such a gift. If you want your wedding party, family, friends, and most importantly YOURSELF to enjoy your wedding day, you need Farrah. A wedding dress can be a tricky piece of clothing to wear and walk around in. Farrah makes sure you are comfortable, look your best, and will guide you in how to carry your dress so it does not get dirty, she even tells you how to hold it in photos so it looks pretty.
Throughout the entire day, whenever I turned around, Farrah was by my side, and always calm, patient, with a smile on her face. She is SUCH an angel, and made me feel so comfortable and relaxed all day. I can't recommend her enough. I wish I had a Farrah with me every day!
Love you, Farrah
Farrah was an absolute joy to work with. She is very well versed in everything bridal. She was there to help me choose the most beautiful accessories and at the fittings with me to ensure everything was perfect. She made me and my bridesmaid so comfortable. She went above and beyond to make sure my wedding day was successful. She's also fun to work with and hiring her is like having an additional MOH. One of the best decisions I made when planning my big day.
I had an amazing experience working with Farrah. She truly is a superstar!
I thought I knew the type of dress I wanted before meeting Farrah. After I tried on the first dress with her, I was at a total loss for what I actually wanted. I became overwhelmed, felt like I didn’t prepare enough, and was indecisive.
Farrah, the superstar she is, was there to bring excitement back into my experience. She really listened and understood my thoughts and feelings and was able to recreate my wedding dress vision with me in real time. I could tell Farrah was just as motivated and excited to find me my dream dress as I was!
I continued to try on more dresses, and each dress Farrah brought out, we got closer, and closer to “the one”. I was amazed at how well Farrah was able to filter through the endless amount of options to find me the one, even when I didn’t even know what I actually wanted. Farrah made my experience finding my wedding dress fun and memorable for not only me, but also my family members who were with me.
After finding my dream dress with Farrah, I can confidently say you will have an amazing time working with her too. Farrah works with an abondance of care, precision, and friendliness. And she is super fun to work with too! I know whoever has the pleasure of working with Farrah will be thrilled with her work. Farrah, I can’t thank you enough!
Farrah is the best at what she does!! I explained to her the type of bridal gown I wanted and with her knowledge of the industry and connections she was able to find me my dream dress at Kleinfeld! I wanted to make a couple of changes to my gown so Farrah worked with Kleinfeld to help me customize it exactly how I wanted. She was also there to help me choose accessories and at the fittings to ensure everything fit perfectly. Lastly, even on my wedding day Farrah was amazing to have around. She helped bustle my dress and made sure I looked and felt my best! Through the whole process she was amazing to work with! I feel lucky to have had her!
Farrah is an absolute PRO and truly felt like my wedding dress fairy godmother. She is so well connected in the industry and was able to get me appointments with my favorite designers at the snap of a finger. She made both me and my mom feel so comfortable throughout the entire process and was integral in making my wedding day perfect, despite the many challenges COVID threw our way. Cannot recommend FAB Styling enough.
