Winner of “Best New Business in Melbourne & Disruptor of the Year” Award
…while Emilia and Socrates were on a road trip to Canberra, after getting bored with 6-hours of I-Spy With My Little Eye, they decided to chat about something else…their wedding day (gasp!).
Emilia (who has some serious online shopping skills) couldn’t believe how much trouble she was having trying to research and buy wedding items online. Whereas Socrates was more concerned about buying a tonne of ‘wedding stuff’, and never using it again.
The problem felt real so after returning from Canberra, they did some research, got some stats, and launched the first version of Capriess.
Fast forward a few years later, and after receiving some great feedback from customers, Capriess was re-launched with a new look and feel that provides an even better buying and selling experience.
To be the number one most trusted marketplace, making dream weddings more affordable for couples by connecting them with more sellers and buyers than any other marketplace.
Emilia and Socrates (pictured below) met while working in their own start-ups all the way back in 2008. They (finally!) tied the knot in 2016.
Today Emilia specialises as a digital & business consultant, writes for her popular Lifestyle Blog voted Top 5 Lifestyle Blog in Melbourne and designs edgy fashion jewellery which is sold in over 25 boutiques worldwide.
Socrates also has a strong background in digital and works with some pretty cool brands to help them perform better online.
Not to boast or anything but we love awards as much as the next person and are thrilled to share some awards and achievements Capriess’ has been recognised in the business and entrepreneur space.
