Emily + Hunter

(September 18, 2021 in Odessa, WA)

This bride had a stress-free experience with wedding dress shopping and planning, with the help of her loved ones. Her vision was to have a rustic country wedding, which turned out beautifully on the day of. Although it rained all day, the sun came out an hour before the wedding and even produced a rainbow. Her advice to future brides is to relax and enjoy everything, as the day goes by quickly and you'll want to cherish the memories forever.

Emily looked absolutely stunning in our Evangeline gown by Essense of Australia. This gown features a flattering sweetheart neckline and is a classic A-line fit. It has a gorgeous layer of sheet lace in the skirt and then a layer of appliqués that cover the bodice and trickle down into the skirt. The appliqués are a gorgeous crochet lace that perfectly complements the rustic vibe of this wedding.

By our real bride, Emily:

How was wedding dress shopping and wedding planning for you? What was your vision?

It went so well and stress-free with help from family and friends. We went for a very rustic country feel

How did it go the day-of?

Well, it rained ALL day but an hour before the sun came out, there was a rainbow, and it was perfect.

What would be your advice to future brides?

Just relax and enjoy everything because it goes by so fast and you will wish you could go back.
