A High School Love Story: Emily & Mark

Emily and Mark’s Cloudcroft wedding was personal, funny, and nearly 12 years in the making. From their high school meeting story to Emily finding her fitted Studio Levana gown at Solutions Bridal, their day was full of meaningful details that felt true to them.

Emily and Mark’s wedding in Cloudcroft was a celebration nearly 12 years in the making.

From their high school meeting story to writing their own vows, their wedding reflected the life they have built together over many years.

 

Emily and Mark first met in high school, when Emily was selling raffle tickets for a basketball game.

She decided to try to sell one to Mark, but she was so nervous that she kept ignoring his attempts to flirt. She needed his phone number for the ticket, and when he asked whether it was going anywhere else, she told him it was only for the ticket. Luckily, they still ended up together.

When it came to finding the dress, Emily said she wanted to feel beautiful and timeless, but she was nervous she might not find that.

Before trying on her Studio Levana dress, Emily thought she wanted a flowy gown to cover the part of her stomach she felt uncomfortable with. Instead, she fell in love with a fitted gown.

“The corset? Absolutely genius. I never thought I would’ve chosen a tight fitting gown until I tried on one of yours. ”

Instead of a honeymoon, Emily and Mark bought a house, and Emily started a new career as a pharmacy manager.

Next for them is some traveling, and maybe kids.
