Megan was one of the first brides to find her dress at Margaret Ellen Bridal after our opening last winter. She fell in love with a long sleeve, fit and flare Martina Liana gown. Despite getting married in July in Florida, the dress couldn't be beat. I love when brides don't let their venue, time of year, or others’ opinions persuade them on what type of dress is “correct”. Girls dream of this vert important dress. Whatever it is that makes one feel beautiful and like a bride should go with that feeling. Megan did just that and is still in love with her beautiful wedding dress. She paired her gown with her mother’s veil, adding a special touch from the past.
Megan and Nick were married on July 28, 2018 at Saint Dominic’s Catholic Church in Panama City, Florida. They celebrated with friends and family at their reception held at the infamous Shrimp Boat. It is evident of the love these two share.
How did you meet your groom?
In January 2017, while in training at Keesler Air Force Base. I did not like Nick at first, but when some of our friends made a trip to New Orleans for Mardi Gras, we clicked and fell in love.
How did Nick ask you to become his wife?
We were in Savannah, Georgia for the night. While on the Riverwalk, Nick proposed.
What was your favorite part of the wedding planning process?
Everything to do with my dress!
What is your favorite memory from the wedding day?
The ceremony was beautiful. We kept whispering to each other the whole time.
What is one piece of advice you would give someone preparing for their wedding day?
Do what makes you happy! It's your wedding, not every person who gives unwanted advice.
Why did you choose Margaret Ellen Bridal? How did you know your dress was "the one"?
I wanted to feel special when I got my dress. Maggie made me feel like a princess. My dress caught my eye right when we walked in, and I tried it on just for fun. I loved it!
Megan and Nick honeymooned where they met in Biloxi, Mississippi.
