Lyndsey + Robert
(July 8, 2023 in Spokane, WA)
Welcome back to the Ivory Bride Blog, where we share stories about our real brides and their real weddings! In today's post, our real bride recounts her stunning wedding held on July 8, 2023, with a vision of classic, romantic, and elegant aesthetics. On the day itself, the bride reflects that despite the event feeling like a whirlwind, it surpassed her expectations. The wedding included unique touches such as the wedding party taking a shot of tequila at the altar, entering to a personalized song as an inside joke, and groomsmen dancing shirtless at the sweetheart table. Despite the fast pace, the bride advises future brides to take moments to absorb the day fully and not let any mishaps affect their enjoyment.
By our real bride, Lyndsey:
What was the vision for your wedding?
Classic, romantic, elegant. I did not want farm or boho vibes at all, I feel it’s too overdone.
How did it go the day-of?
Everyone tries to tell you, but it goes by so fast. It was amazing but I felt like I was just watching going by in a car 100 miles an hour. I felt bad that I barely had time to say hi to everyone. Other than that, it was more amazing than I could have ever imagined. We had several people go out of their way to tell us after that it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. Our whole wedding party took a shot of tequila at the alter, my husband and I came into the song “Gold Digger” by Kanye West, which was an inside joke, and we had all the groomsmen dancing with their shirts off on the sweetheart table, I had 2 different dresses both from you guys lol it was just a blast!!
What is your #1 tip to future brides?
Just really try to take it in and do not let the little or big things that may go wrong even phase you, there’s no time to be worried or upset for even a minute on your big day!
