Good Afternoon! Today we are recounting our “real brides” who decided to get married on the iconic 12-12-12 date that just passed! Tadia Whitner has a very touching story about how “if it’s meant to be, it will be!” Read more about her story below, and see the gorgeous pictures from her wedding!

“I tried to think about why we chose 12/12/12 …I guess sometime in late 2010, I thought it would be neat (and lucky) to get married on 12/12/12 because it would be the last recurring date until 3001.  I figured if I were going to get married that would be the day I wanted to do it. I wasn’t even dating anyone at that point.  In June 2011, a friend of mine wanted to get in touch with someone in the video game industry.  Brian, who works in the video game industry, and I had dated in college and kept in touch on social media.  I sent him a message on Facebook and we started to talking.  A few months later, Brian told me he always felt that I was “the one that got away”.  He told me that he wanted to date seriously with the goal of getting married.  I told him I wanted to get married on 12/12/12, he said that was not a problem for him and basically he made it happen.  He courted me long distance from Baton Rouge, LA.  In December 2011, he took me home to Pennsylvania to meet his parents.  In July 2012, he moved from Baton Rouge to Lawrenceville, GA because my newly formed law firm was doing so well.   The rest is history.  I asked Brian why we picked 12/12/12 and he said because I had my heart set on that date and it was his job in life to give me whatever my heart desired.  I figure there was not a better reason than that!”

TGIF! We are starting off our weekend by posting about one of our “Real Brides” who got married on the most iconic date of the year…. 12-12-12!! Julia Hintze from Phoenix, Arizona got married in a beautiful chapel in Yosemite National Park, as she grew up camping there and decided it would be the perfect place for her wedding! Julia had an intimate family gathering and decided that 12-12-12 would be a date she could never forget!  December is always a great month for the couple, making it even more special!  Here are a few pictures from Julia’s big day!

Good Afternoon! We are so excited about the 2013, and with a new year comes great trends! Colored bridal gowns aren’t an entirely new style phenomenon, but from recent celebrity weddings to spring 2013 designer runways, fresh creations for the walk down the aisle are emerging in shades beyond traditional white, ivory and cream.

Future brides aspiring to be pretty in pink will have their share of options to sift through in 2013, whether it’s a subtle touch of pale pastel or a more colorful creation drenched in the rosy hue! Check out the story here from Winnipeg Free Press about bridal trends you can expect to see!
