Pretty in Pink: A Modern Country Romance
This Wedding Wednesday, Chelsea's modern countryside wedding will leave you tickled in shades of pink! Rustic romance is creatively mixed with feminine glam to create a memorable look of love.
"I had my choice narrowed down to 3 dresses, and this was the dress I felt most comfortable in... As soon as I put on the dress, I knew it was the one..." Chelsea says as she shares her 'yes to the dress' experience.
Style #2243 Camellia is a satin sheath wedding dress, detailed with ornate beading and embroidery across the silhouette. Beaded halter straps frame the bride's back, creating a flirtatious open back. A dramatic row of satin buttons trails from the bottom of the back neckline to the end of the chapel length train.
This trendy wedding dress gave Chelsea the just the right amount of sparkle and glamor to give her countryside wedding a modern twist.
Her bedazzled Badgley Mischka shoes provided a finishing touch of elegance while the bright fuschia and blush florals provided a hint of feminine romance. Chelsea's bridesmaids also looked pretty in pink, donning floor length dresses in powder rose.
When Chelsea's father was in high school he owned a purple Catalina. It was his prized possession as he claims the car would float down the road. Many years later as Chelsea's family was driving through her campus parking lot, her father spotted a young man driving one almost identical to his.
Chelsea's father proceeded to stop him and ask if he could buy the car from him. Chelsea didn't know at the time, but this was her first encounter meeting Dillion.
The fateful coincidences did not stop there. DillonΓÇÖs family has an annual Halloween family camping trip. This first time Chelsea was invited she walked into their familyΓÇÖs motor home and noticed the camper was familiar. Chelsea investigated and as it turned out, both families had taken many vacations in the same motor home.
Some starcrossed lovers are just meant to mingle.
The couple married on June 24th, 2017. As the couple started a fresh chapter in their lives as a new family, Chelsea and Dillon even made sure to include their four legged family members, Charlie and Maleigh.
When asked what advice she has for future brides, Chelsea shared: "Pick out whatever dress you feel most comfortable in and donΓÇÖt let the people you are with change your mind."
