Tell us about your perfect day:
I was blessed with the ability to have my dream wedding and it was absolutely beautiful! We had a garden ceremony followed by a cocktail hour and reception in a ballroom! A few of my favorite ideas that made our wedding unique was asking our guests to all wear pastel, having a food truck come for a late night snack, and we did a “speed round” after dinner so we were able to get a picture with every guest!

What advice would you give future brides?

My only regrets are not hiring a day of coordinator and picking the DJ I did (DJ Fun Squad). He was awful and ruined many musical moments in our day :(

Why did you choose Crown Bridal?

I was extremely picky with finding my wedding dress and when I saw Antoinette by Randy Fenoli I fell in love! It had beautiful beadwork and a unique sequin skirt that gave me all the sparkle I was hoping for! I loved the puffiness or the skirt because I had always dreamed of a giant ballgown. I also loved the detachable sleeves so that I could have the look I wanted but could take them off when I wanted to dance. In addition to finding the perfect dress, I was also so pleased with the customer service! I went in a few times throughout the process and was always treated so well and never felt pressured or rushed.
