Date of Wedding: April 6, 2013 How they met: We met while attending the University of Illinois at Kams :)How he proposed: We moved to Tampa, FL shortly after graduating from U of I. Labor Day weekend 2011 we planned a trip back to Illinois, which included a day in Champaign for the Illini football game and catching up with old friends. The morning of the game Kenny and I went to Kams (the place we met) before everyone showed up and while there he asked if I wanted to take a walk on the quad. Then much to my surprise he proposed right there in the middle of the quad. Little did I know, our family and siblings were hiding behind a nearby bush and were there for the whole thing as well. We spent the rest of the day celebrating with our best friends. It was quite the surprise and absolutely perfect!

Why you chose to shop at Michelles Bridal: I had heard nothing but positive reviews about Michelles and decided to give it a shot when I began the hunt for my dream wedding dress. From the moment I walked in the door, I knew I had made a great choice. Everyone was more than welcoming and always available to offer helpful advice or just a friendly smile. It really made the entire experience great! Michelles had a great selection of dresses and at first it was quite overwhelming, but Anna helped me narrow down my search and I found the perfect dress! After that, I knew I could trust Michelles to help me find exactly what I wanted every step of the way. Part of your wedding you are most looking forward to: Seeing the expression on Kennys face when he first sees me as my dad walks me down the aisle. Where you are going on your honeymoon: Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
