Real Brides: Alicia

Jarrod and I met on Tinder. Our first date was at the boardwalk where we spent hours talking, and we went for a night swim in the ocean. Three years later, he asked me to marry him among family and friends at a paint and wine night. He painted “marry me” on the canvas, and I was completely taken by surprise.

I found my Moonlight Bridal gown the first time I went out dress shopping. Trying on my gown brought tears to my eyes because it was beautiful, of course, but also because it was like a modern take on my mom's dress. It was everything I wanted, from the illusion sleeves, gorgeous train, to the comfortable and classic satin materials. I had previously tried on a number of dresses, but when I tried this one on, my mom and I did not even need to discuss it. We knew it was the right one. Overall my dream dress! I couldn’t have been happier and the wedding day itself was the most magical day of my life.
