Real Brides: Kristian

My husband and I are high school sweethearts! We met and started dating during our junior year of high school and continued dating through different colleges, then the same college, and post-graduation! We have been together for nine and a half years and are so excited for forever! 

I tried on my first Moonlight Bridal dress at a boutique in Florida while on vacation. It was everything I wanted, but I was really hoping to find a dress without a slit. The store associate immediately got her phone and started scrolling; the exact dress I wanted was coming in the next collection. However, the dress was still at the market and would not be in stores for a couple of months. I called every boutique in Texas to see if they were getting the dress I wanted. A boutique in Dallas said they were, and that they had talked to the designer. The designer offered to ship it to the store in between markets. I tried on the dress and loved it. It was the perfect mix between simple, glamorous, and classy. There were a couple of changes I asked for, and the boutique owner called the designer right then to make sure the changes could be made. Between the designer's flexibility and the amazing boutiques, I found my perfect dress for my perfect day!
