Real Brides: Lauren

We met at our good friend's college graduation party. James arrived later in the night and there was an instant spark when he walked down the basement stairs to Justin Bieber. haha We started talking for a while at the party and before we knew it, everyone had gone to bed and it was just the 2 of us. He walked me home and we sat on my parent's back porch for hours talking until the sun nearly came up. 

I wanted something simple and sleek but with a detailed and low back. I went to 3 other stores before finding my dress and when I put it on I instantly fell in love with the detailing on the back and the gorgeous lace train. We decided to get married in Florida and I thought it would be the perfect dress for the beach!
