How did you & your partner meet?: Anthony and I met at Liberty University. I was an incoming freshman on the cheerleading team and when I joined the team, Anthony and I were assigned as stunt partners!
Where was your first date?: Walking the streets in downtown Lynchburg where we went to college.
How did your partner propose?: On a family beach vacation to Manasota Key. With lots of married siblings in so many different places it is sometimes hard to get everyone together in the same place, so having everyone in our families there was so special to us!
What was your dress shopping experience like? : Overwhelming! Choosing the most important dress of your life can be hard when you’re indecisive!! But at the same time, it was magical. Having all the most important ladies in your life to help makes it so much easier!
What did you wish you knew before you started wedding planning?: There are a lot of moving parts! It can get overwhelming, but in the end, your day will always be magical!!
Where was your wedding? What did you decide on that space?: Bella Collina; It was beautiful. From the second we toured we knew it was the perfect place! It even tied in some of my husband's Italian heritage!
What's your favorite memory from your event?: Walking out onto the lawn for our ceremony to see my now husband and all of our friends and family. The lawn was always my favorite part about Bella Collina, so seeing it filled with all the people most special to me brought me to tears!
What is a 'must have' for brides on wedding day? : A wedding coordinator!! Having an expert’s help on your big day makes a huge difference!!
How would you describe the overall feel of your event?: Light and Airy. I loved having lots of greenery with light blooms and accent colors!
What wedding planning advice do you have for other brides?: Go with your gut, don’t overthink the process! There will be so many different opinions being thrown at you, but ultimately it’s your day! Choose what makes you happiest!!
