Real Brides: Meredith

Adam and Meredith first met in the fall of 2016 at the ACC cross-country meet at NC State. Meredith had applied to Clemson University for her Master's Degree while she was an intern at Georgia Tech with their sports medicine staff. Once Clemson had her resume and application, Adam was tasked to find her at the upcoming cross-country meet to talk and see if she would make a good future Clemson athletic trainer. They ran into one another in line at the local Jason's Deli. Adam was in the back of the line and Meredith and her coaches came in to stand right behind him. He turned around to see who was behind him, gave her a glance and noticed her GT gear, realizing it was Meredith. He turned back around, introduced himself, and asked her to eat lunch with him. During the meet they had a few casual conversations, but before departing to go back home, he walked from the finish line to the team area with her and asked for her number. For a few months, they texted back and forth and became good friends visiting one another in Atlanta and Clemson. Once Meredith accepted a position at Clemson, Adam finally asked her to be his girlfriend and the rest is history.

This dress was the first one I tried on the weekend I went dress hunting with my mom and sister. Little did I know it was the one I would end with. I wanted something simple & comfortable, but with a little flair. Just like me! I tried on all types of dresses since I wasn’t sure on the style I wanted. We only went to one other store to try on dresses, but at the end, my dress was the only one I tried on that made me “ugly cheese” (aka big ole smile) when I put it on. I couldn’t stop smiling, it fit me perfectly and I didn’t have to convince myself that I liked the dress. And it had pockets!! A big detail that sealed the deal for me! My mom and sister told me they could see in my face that it was the one. I knew my husband would love it, my sister and mom already loved it, but most importantly I loved it. I felt like the most beautiful bride on my big day. I would not of changed a thing. I was meant to wear that dress and it was perfect. Thank you Moonlight Bridal for creating such a beautiful dress!
