“I loved my dress so much and have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day.”

When was your wedding date?

We were married on February 23, 2018.

What was your wedding location and venue name?

Treasury on the Plaza in St. Augustine, Florida.

Who is the designer of your gown and where was it purchased?

My dress was from Essense of Australia and I purchased it from Love, a Bridal Boutique in Jacksonville Beach, Florida.

What is your favorite memory from your wedding day?

My favorite memory from our wedding day was our first look. When I started walking up to Ben, I felt such a rush of excitement and emotions that I let out a little “ahh!” He looked so handsome, and I couldn’t wait to become his wife. It was so nice to have a moment just for the two of us before everything began!

When did you know that your gown was “the one”?

I knew my dress was the one when I didn’t want to take it off! It was one of the last dresses I tried on after a full day of shopping with my mom and mother-in-law. I felt so beautiful in the dress and had that special feeling. I knew right then it was it.

How did you and your husband meet?

Ben and I actually met on a dating app…a modern day fairytale. 😉 I’m so glad we were both open to meeting up! I can’t imagine going through life with anyone else.

Why did you want to get your gown cleaned and preserved?

I loved my dress so much and have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day.  Getting my dress preserved means I can always have a little piece of our special day, and it brings back all of the memories from our special day.

Why did you decide to get your gown cleaned by Oceanside?

The girls at Love, a Bridal Boutique recommended Oceanside to me and after reading all of the positive reviews online, I knew it was the perfect choice!
