Favorite part of your gown: “I absolutely loved the detailing across the entire thing! The train was gorgeous!”
Why did you pick your dress: “It was the first one I tried on and none of the others compared to it. I felt gorgeous, curvy and saw myself walking down the isle in it.”
The best part of the venue: “Our Church: The Architecture / Reception Venue: Space and Dance Floor”
Why did you pick your venue: “The first time we ever walked into our church, I knew it was where we would get married (we weren’t even engaged then). We picked our reception venue because we knew we would need a big space for dancing!”
Three words to describe your day: “Perfect, Romantic, Party”
Your inspiration for the wedding: “I’ve had my wedding planned since I was 5, so it was easy to finish the details. Basically, our inspiration was romantic, classy, and timeless.”
How you met: “A mutual friend introduced us.”
How they proposed: “He just couldn’t wait to propose and proposed the day he picked up the ring. In the driveway around 10pm.”
Any other fun memories / moments from the day: “Our wedding was a Samoan/Jewish fusion, so there was glass stomping, salt and wine ceremonies, Taulunga (Traditional Samoan wedding dance), outfit changes into traditional Samoan wedding attire… so much culture and tradition packed into one day.”
