Denae and Justin’s wedding day was absolutely magical and, hands down, the best day of their lives! Denae woke up feeling calm and ready to take on the day ahead. She kicked off her morning with some exercise at the gym and then took some time to relax while getting dolled up with her hair and makeup. Despite the rain pouring down, Denae remained calm, collected, and not phased. She shrugged it off and casually said, “No big deal!” Luckily, the rain cleared up when they got to the venue. They started taking pictures, and Denae felt gorgeous and confident in her dress. It’s hard to believe that she picked out her stunning gown in December and finally got to wear it in September. Even with all the wedding planning chaos, Denae fell in love with her dress all over again. The beading, lace, train, and long veil were just perfect, and she couldn’t wait for Justin to catch a glimpse of her. As she walked down the aisle and locked eyes with her soon-to-be-husband, Denae’s emotions flooded over her. The two of them were in that moment, and nothing else mattered. Their ceremony was short, sweet, and oh-so-special, and before they knew it, they were already at the reception partying it up with their nearest and dearest. Everyone always says that the day flies by in a blur, and Denae truly wishes she could have slowed down time. It was a fantastic night surrounded by so much love and happiness.
I knew I had to go back to Bridal & Formal for my wedding dress since I used to work there. Their selection at Bridal & Formal is impressive, and the bridal consultants are passionate about their work. One of them, Iris, was terrific. She got what I was looking for and was patient with me, even though I must have tried on 30 dresses before narrowing it down to two. Looking back, the two dresses were different: one was a ball gown with lace sleeves, and the other was a figure-hugging mermaid style with intricate beading and an open back.
Ultimately, Lisa helped me make the final decision by asking me which dress I loved from every angle and reminding me that most people would look at my back during the ceremony. It was an easy decision after that, and I’m over the moon with my Kenneth Winston gown and a beautiful veil. The whole experience at Bridal and Formal was unforgettable thanks to their honesty, attention to detail, and genuine excitement.
Iris was so helpful throughout the process. She understood what I was looking for and could always suggest options based on what I wanted. Given my timeline, Iris was mindful of my budget and knew which designers would be the best option for me. She never rushed me into making a decision and constantly reminded me that it was my day and I had to love the dress I chose. Working with Iris was a great experience, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for their perfect wedding dress!
