#ÉLYSÉERealBride: Alyssa + Eric

9 October 2022 | Romantic Backyard Wedding

Tell us how you both fell in love...

"We're high school sweethearts! We just so happened to sit across from each other one day at lunch my junior year, his senior. Shortly after meeting, he coincidentally became the teacher's assistant in my History class, but we were so shy, it took some help from our best friends to finally start talking. 14 years later, those friends stood by us at our wedding as our best man and maid of honor."

Why did you choose our VALLIÉRE to be your wedding gown?

"I initially only went to the bridal salon for the experience of it thinking that I was going to opt for a secondhand gown, but man did that change the second I stepped into VALLIÈRE. It was everything I imagined for my wedding dress and more! The perfect amount of sparkle, lace, sexy and sweet. It was absolutely meant to be mine."

What was the most memorable moment at your wedding?

"I didn't expect to get emotional walking down the aisle because we had done a first look beforehand, but the second I walked out through the doors and saw just how many of our family and friends came to support us and celebrate our love and marriage, I was OVERWHELMED with emotion and extreme gratitude. It was beautiful to share our day with the people who mean the most to us."
