Real Brides: Brooke
I met my husband back when I was in high school in 2015 when I was working in a pizza shop in my hometown. He was friends with one of my co-workers and came in to see him and have a slice of pizza. He asked for my number through Facebook and I remember thinking how he was the most interesting person to talk to. We always joke that he was in love at first sight; however, it took me a lot of convincing to agree to go on a first date with him. The first date was a Justin Moore concert and I remember looking up at him and knowing he was going to change my world. Who knew three years later he would be proposing to me in a hot air balloon!
I went to two different bridal shops with a whole group of girls and was unsuccessful, I was very discouraged about ever being able to find 'the one'. A couple of days later I was scrolling through Instagram and saw an ad for Mirror Mirror Bridal so I brought just my mother and mother-in-law to my appointment that I had made. I tried on the dress in the fitting room and knew it was the one before I could even look at it in the mirror. As soon as I walked out of the room, my mother and mother-in-law instantly started crying - which of course made me cry! I was in love! I added illusion long sleeves to make the gown my own.
