A Perfect Day: Leasia & Owen’s Heartwarming Wedding Journey 

The Wedding of Leasia & Owen

Leasia and Owen decided to spend the night together before the wedding. This allowed them to enjoy a quiet morning with coffee and prepare for the busy day ahead. Leasia suggests this so couples can be comfortable seeing each other on their wedding day.
After a peaceful morning, Leasia and Owen went separate ways to prepare for the big day. Their bridal party consisted of their sisters and brothers, and Leasia wouldn’t have had it any other way. It was a fantastic morning spent with their favorite people, although it sometimes got overwhelming. Nevertheless, Leasia was incredibly excited that the day had finally arrived! Coordinating schedules for 10 ladies to get their hair and makeup done was quite a mission, but they made it work. Leasia accepted that there would be hiccups, just like with anything else.
Following the hair and makeup session, things sped up. Leasia dressed quickly, and it was time for the first look with her Dad. She surprised him with custom cufflinks, then tapped him on the shoulder as he turned around. There might have been a few tears of joy when he saw her for the first time! Despite being one of eight daughters, she thinks she is the favorite, so it was definitely a special moment they got to share.
Owen and Leasia decided to have a first look to calm their nerves. It was absolutely amazing. During this time, they also had personal photos taken and all of their family and group pictures.
Before she knew it, it was time to walk down the aisle! As her planner opened the gate to the ceremony, Leasia was overwhelmed by seeing everyone she loved in one space. It was a lot to take in! She thinks she focused on Owen about halfway down the aisle. Whoops! But she reached the end and exchanged vows with the man she loved the most. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house!
They spent the rest of the evening surrounded by their loved ones, enjoying the love and laughter. It was, without a doubt, the best day ever!

 

Leasia’s Bridal & Formal Experience

The first time I went to try on wedding dresses, I was really nervous. I was worried that I wouldn’t find a dress I liked. But it turned out that I loved so many dresses that I had a hard time choosing! The whole experience, from beginning to end, was really great. It wasn’t just the beautiful dresses that made me buy from Bridal & Formal and the fantastic customer service. Everyone was supportive and helped me find the perfect dress that made me feel as impressive as I looked!
