A fashion stylist will take all the design elements of your wedding and use the fashion to complement and elevate your overall wedding vision. They just know how to pair the boldest statement piece with the most delicate and intricate details.
Introduction and background:
John Dolio Studio came to be when I realized there was a need to have a more personal experience while I was the bridal specialist at Oscar de la Renta and Carolina Herrera. My clients were needing my advice and services outside the confines of those walls.

What is the benefit of working with a Bridal Stylist?
There is a lot of anxiety in preparation for a wedding. With anxiety comes indecision. My services help ease this portion of the process with a strong and focused point of view. This is the benefit and luxury of working with a bridal stylist.
What does a Bridal Stylist do?
As a bridal stylist, I create a visual narrative with the bride for her wedding day and the festivities that come along the way. Then there is the shopping and appointment process.
The fittings that follow are my favorite part – working with the bride and tailor – as I can be exacting in every aspect of the look. This can be intense but not so much as the red carpet fittings I have done in the past.

Whether you're doing an engagement session, rehearsal dinner, or the wedding day itself, your bridal stylists will not only source one-of-a-kind outfits catered to you and your needs, but they make themselves accessible during those important moments.
Advice on the styling process and wedding tips:
Aside from the appointments, selections, and fittings…the looks that I create with the bride not only reflect the wedding theme but also their personality. The days and events that lead up to a wedding can be a blur but I like to remind my brides how magical it can be.
