Idris Elba and Sabrina Dhowre’s glam wedding: The designer behind the outfits

Idris Elba, the English actor and DJ, tied the knot with his girlfriend of 2 years, Sabrina Dhowre, at the Ksar Char Bagh hotel in Marrakesh, Morroco .  The Canadian model and former Miss Vancouver met Elba in 2017 while he was filming his movie The Mountain Between Us in Canada.

Dhowre looked dashing in a custom soft white draped silk crepe gown with off the shoulder sleeves. Sewn into the hem of the dress was the message, “This train carries no wrong do-ers”

Dhowre’s wedding gown was custom made by Vera Ellen Wang, an American fashion designer of Chinese descent. In 1990, Vera resigned from Ralph Lauren after designing for them for 2 years and became an independent bridal wear designer. She has boutiques in several countries.
