My Wedding Dress

I bought my dress or should I say my parents bought my dress at Mon Amie bridal salon in Costa Mesa. Just a couple weeks after Alex and I got engaged my Mom and I went there just to look around. Little did I know that I would end up walking out of the store with the dress of my dreams. It was just the second dress I had ever tried on before and it was the one. I randomly went into the bridal salon the day of the Stephen Yearick's trunk show. That was a dream come true since he was the designer of the dress I fell in love with and he was willing to customize it just for me. Anyway here are the before and afters as well as the sketch he drew up for me to approve the measurements and changes before it became customized. It turned out perfect!!!
Before with no sleeves and low back

The Sketch!

First time I tried on the finished product with my Mom

Wedding day!

Recap of my Summer






I have not been on here in forever! But now that finals are over i'm able to update you on my summer. In July I went to Europe with my family. We started off in Paris then took an overnight train to Barcelona and from there we got on a cruise that went throughout Italy. It was amazing.. the only thing missing was Alex. He had to stay home and work. Alex got a job in June at New England Financial. He sells life and health insurance and is also a certified financial adviser. After a 9 month engagement Alex and I were married in the Newport Beach Temple. It was truly the best day of my life and the could not have turned out more perfect. Right after we got married we took a week long cruise to Mexico. It was so fun and I did not want to come home and start school. Alex and I have now been married 3 months and it has been the best 3 months of our lives. We are looking forward to our first Christmas together!
