Alexandra and Alessandro’s story began on their first day of paramedic training. They quickly became friends, realizing they had grown up near each other and even attended the same high school. Over time, their friendship blossomed into love. Six years later, they celebrated their beautiful union surrounded by loved ones.
On Alexandra — Ashley Dress, Stardust Collection
Shopping for a wedding dress as a plus-size bride can be daunting. Alexandra had experienced boutiques with limited options and dresses that couldn’t be tried on in her size. But when she discovered More2Love Bridal, everything changed.
“The Studio Levana collection caught my eye right away. The Ashley dress was perfect—comfortable, supportive, and it truly felt like me. The off-the-shoulder sleeves, subtle sparkles, and built-in corset made me feel incredible. The moment I saw myself in it, I knew it was the one.”

Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but Alexandra has some advice for brides: “It’s your day—do what makes YOU happy! At the end of it all, you’re marrying the person you love, and that’s what truly matters.”
Planning a smaller wedding was a challenge for Alexandra and Alessandro, both from large Italian families. Navigating family expectations and a smaller guest list was tough, but they stuck together. “In the end, our day was perfect for us, and that’s what truly matters,” Alexandra shared.
Alexandra’s favorite memory was her first look with Alessandro. “It was just the two of us. When he saw me all dressed up, his eyes teared up, and he told me how beautiful I looked. That moment is something I’ll cherish forever.”
The couple plans to travel before starting a family, with Italy high on their list. For now, they’re enjoying life together with their dog, Hunter, and cherishing the memories of their unforgettable wedding day.
