A message from the bride

What was it like when you found "the dress"? It was such a relief! Of course, I also felt so much happiness and excitement because I truly loved my dress the moment I put it on. When you fall in love right away with your dress, you just know it's the one!

Were you inspired by any style icons for your bridal look? To be honest, not particularly. But I went in with an open mind so nothing could hold me back. However, I did know that I wanted something timeless, elegant, classic, and unique all in unison. 

Luckily, my bridal look turned out better than I imagined. My wedding gown designed by Badgley Mischka and florals by Avant Garden Events was exactly what I envisioned for my big day.  

Any recommendations for brides looking for their glam squad?: Research, research, research! You should not underestimate the importance of your glam squad for our wedding day. 

My glam squad consisted of @elojelloseropian & @hairbydianaa and I couldn’t have been happier. I’m really picky when it comes to hair and makeup, but I went in knowing exactly what I wanted. I loved the look they created for me. It took my months of research and word of mouth to make my final decisions.

What is your favorite part of your bridal look? Honestly, the way my bridal look came together as a whole was very special to me. Every step of finalizing my bridal look felt like my "favorite" until I had to go on to do the next step. The greatest moment was when I finally put on my dress and my vision came to life!
