Wedding Wednesday With Ellyn and Shane
Happy Wedding Wednesday! Today, we are excited to present the story of #CasablancaBride Ellyn, and her love story with her new husband Shane Alfonso. Just married this past month on April 2nd, 2016, the two had a soft and romantic beach wedding with rustic elements, taking place along the beaches of the Philippines.
Though the couple met in high school here in the United States, they were both originally from the Philippines. It almost seems as though fate was conspiring for them to meet all of their lives, no matter where they ended up. Despite paths that diverged after high school as Ellyn went to college and Shane went into the Navy, they reconnected after and found that their high school flame could be reignited. After a Christmas Eve proposal in 2014, the two were finally married after a long engagement.
Ellyn actually knew at once when she saw Casablanca Bridal Style 2201 that this would be her dream dress. Her stylist suggested she saved the best for last. Her instict was correct: this would be the dress she would walk down the aisle and vow to forever with her husband in. She was drawn to the delicate lace, scalloped edges and simple design. As a person not drawn to an extensive amount of frills and embellishments, the subtle beading was the perfect balance.
Our sincerest congratulations go out to this happy, beautiful couple!
