How did you and your partner meet?: We met while working as Attraction Attendants at the Transformers Ride at Universal Studios.

How did your partner propose?: Michael booked the Private Dining Experience at the Grand Floridian Disney hotel and popped the question while the Magic Kingdom fireworks were going off after dinner. 

What was your wedding dress shopping experience like?: It was amazing - Tali is an absolute angel and really made me feel like the most special bride. I ended up choosing the first wedding dress I ever tried on, we tried on 3 others afterwards but I just knew in my heart that the first one was THE one. I was already cyring the second time I put it on, but once Tali did me up and played my first dance song, I was filled with such joy and knew that this would be the dress I would marry Michael in. 

What are you most excited about for your wedding?: Other than marrying Michael (of course) - I really can't wait for the Luxmore to be done up with all of the rentals and flowers we have chosen, and for our friends and family to celebrate our special day. 

Favorite/and least favorite part of planning a wedding?: My favorite part about wedding planning is envisioning everything we are picking out to be brought to life inside the Luxmore. My least favorite part is working with a budget!!! Everything adds up SO quickly and it sometimes becomes really difficult to say no to things that you fall in love with. 

Advice for other brides: HAVE FUN with planning! Don't get stressed about friends and family wanting to give you advice. This is YOUR wedding, YOUR special day - make it the way YOU want it. Time seriously flies when you start planning, get yourself a checklist and stay organized. Lastly, remember to really cherish any appointment you have while planning - whether it be cake tastings, rental walkthroughs, choosing linens, etc., it all goes by so fast and only happens once!
