Tessa & Brad

Brad and I met back in 2014 through a mutual friend we hit it off straight away and after 6 months of dating he asked me out! We did long distance for a few years which was hard when I had a crappy Subaru but was definitely worth it! 6 years of fun and adventures later Brad asked me to marry him, we went and had a picnic at a local waterfall and he proposed with a beautiful ring. Wedding dress shopping was one of my favourite things about wedding planning because I LOVE dresses. The ladies at bridal brilliance made it so much better, they had so many great options and all the staff were so lovely, and not judgmental at all when I stood there looking at myself in the dress for 10 minutes. I ended up picking the Rylee dress by Tina Holly and it was the perfect dress for me.
