From Childhood Crush to Custom Bridal Elegance
A love story decades in the making, actress Denyce Lawton and executive Eban Grasti sealed their lifelong bond with a stunning wedding celebration in Washington, DC. Their journey, sparked in 6th grade and rekindled years later through a chance Facebook connection, blossomed into a beautiful romance culminating in a proposal on Paris’s iconic Love Lock Bridge—and finally, their unforgettable wedding day.
A Bridal Look as Unique as Her Love Story
Denyce’s bridal attire was no ordinary wedding ensemble. She chose a customized bridal robe from INNA ELSIE, thoughtfully tailored to reflect her personal style and grace. Luxurious fabrics combined with intricate details made the robe a true statement piece, embodying elegance and femininity.
To complement the robe, Denyce wore a delicate lace bodysuit—designed to add a romantic, sophisticated layer to her bridal look. The intricate lacework and flawless fit enhanced her natural beauty and perfectly aligned with the refined aesthetic she envisioned.

The Art of Personalization and Tailoring
Custom bridal attire is about more than just fabric—it’s about crafting a garment that fits perfectly, feels comfortable, and reflects the bride’s unique personality. Denyce’s gown was a testament to this philosophy, meticulously designed and tailored to ensure every stitch was flawless.
This bespoke approach guarantees a bridal ensemble that not only looks stunning but feels like it was made just for her—because it was.

Wedding song, and the significance of the song:
“With You” by Tony Terry is one of our favorite songs together. It was a song that played at our 7th grade dance that we never got to dance together to. The song is beautiful, nostalgic and says how we feel about each other.
