«My husband and I met at work. He was in sales, and I was in sales analytics. Fast forward 7 years, and he proposed on the LaSalle Street Bridge in Chicago on a perfect fall day. He surprised me by making sure our siblings were on the bridge to congratulate us immediately after the proposal, and several of our friends and family waiting back at our condo for a party! », the bride shared with us.
«I visited Chic and Stylish Weddings. It was great to see such a variety of other brides’ style, designs, and decor to take a bit of inspiration from each. »
«It’s an old tradition in Greece to walk from your home to the local church. I happen to live only a few blocks from my Greek Orthodox Church as well! I was able to walk from my home to the church with my family and best girlfriends as company. All the guests were waiting outside of the church to welcome us. »
«My wedding dress was a Wona Concept beaded gown purchased at LBR Bridal in Chicago. I tried on many dresses and didn’t think I would have that feeling of “the one” that other brides describe. And then, of course, the last dress at the last appointment was tried on and I immediately knew it. It was flattering with the perfect amount of glam. LBR helped me match the gown with a long train overskirt from Wona Concepts sister brand, Eva Lendel, which I wore from the ceremony. »
The bride’s advice: «Wedding planning should be fun! Make sure to listen to your partner and make sure the wedding is a perfect representation of both of you individually and both of you together. »
