My wedding dress was a dream. I felt so confident, beautiful, and elegant.

Dress: WTOO

What was your partner’s reaction when they first saw you?

Brandon was so excited to see me in the dress, it was so hard to keep it from him and I’d always let him have guesses but would never say which was correct or not so it built up excitement for the day of!

What was your favorite part of your wedding day?

Oh wow, all of it! When I walked down the beach for our ceremony with my dad was probably top favorite though. Everything I had ever pictured that moment to be was 100% what I imagined. From the ocean’s waves to the dreamy haze on the sand and the decorations, I felt like I was in a dream. The most perfect dream!

What piece of advice would you give brides planning their wedding?

No matter how stressed you may feel planning your wedding, know that it all goes away the day of and being with your significant other on that day beats any other stressful day you have while planning. Remember it’s YOUR day and people are there for you and to love you!

Did you go on a honeymoon? If yes, where?!

Yes! We stayed in Destin, FL at the Henderson Beach Resort and Spa. It was the most perfect venue and resort and the customer service was unmatched. We are wanting to travel out of the country at the end of the year or next year for our anniversary!
