Styled by Tali, Kait looks absolutely gorgeous in her lace long sleeve wedding dress, ‘Eva’ by Pronovias. Speaking with Kaitlyn after her wedding, she said that she had always been looking for a long sleeve wedding gown and was so happy she found one in her private bridal appointment at The Bridal Finery. “Sleeves provide such a romantic feel, in my opinion” Kaitlyn elaborates on her love for her wedding gown!
