Homebodii Bride of the Month: Lili Fretes

A little bit about me… 

I’m Lili, and I’ve always dreamed of a wedding that felt deeply personal, romantic, and full of joy. I love fashion and spending time with my family and friends. I’m a little bit of a perfectionist when it comes to organizing things, but I also try to stay calm and enjoy the process. I adore my job and love chocolate—it always makes me happy!

Our approach to planning the wedding was…

 We wanted this to truly be our day, so my husband and I did everything together with the planner we chose. We tried to make the whole process enjoyable rather than stressful, focusing on creating something meaningful and fun along the way—and it was so worth it. My best advice: try not to stress and just enjoy, because everything will fall into place. ✨

Looking back, we’re so glad that we… 

Took time during the day to pause and soak in the moments together. Those quiet little pauses became some of our most treasured memories.

The most unexpected part of the day was… 

How fast everything went by! We’d been told that, but it still surprised us. Every moment felt like a blur of love and happiness. That’s why it’s so important to truly enjoy every moment with the people you love—dance, celebrate, and have fun, because the day goes by in the blink of an eye.

When I look back now, I feel…

So grateful—for the love we celebrated, the people who surrounded us, and the little details that made the day uniquely ours. You can truly feel the love of the people around you.

My advice to new brides… 

Don’t stress about perfection—focus on enjoying the process, because everything else will fall into place. The most meaningful memories come from the little imperfections and spontaneous moments. I remember planning every single detail for a sunny day, and just four days before the wedding we found out it was going to pour with rain. We had to change our whole plan, and in the end, it turned out to be even more perfect.

My Homebodii moment was special because, and I wore… 

I wore the Sian robe and matching Sian slip. It made me feel both beautiful and comfortable. I was looking for something that combined elegance with ease, and this truly captured it. The lace in the slip was so chic, and the fabric felt like butter—it was the perfect set.
