Bridgette & Steven – From a Baseball Game to a Lifetime of Love

Bridgette and Steven’s story began after high school with a simple compliment at a baseball game—and blossomed into years of love, laughter, and a beautiful New Hampshire wedding. With the help of Studio Levana, Bridgette found a gown that made her feel supported, confident, and radiant on her big day.

Bridgette and Steven’s love story wasn’t one of high school sweethearts—but of perfect timing. Though they went to the same school, their paths never crossed.

That is, until years later, when fate brought them together at a local baseball game.

She was there to support a friend. He happened to be pitching. After a quick compliment and a Facebook message two days later, their story officially began. Fast forward twelve years—and one unforgettable proposal—and Bridgette and Steven were married on June 22, 2024, in a heartfelt celebration in New Hampshire.

Shopping for a wedding dress as a curvy bride can be frustrating. Many gowns are simply upsized from smaller patterns—but Studio Levana was different. The moment Bridgette learned about the brand’s signature built-in corset and inclusive design approach, she knew it was the right fit.

The dress offered structure and support without the need for shapewear, giving her the sculpted silhouette she wanted while feeling completely comfortable.

Planning came with its own challenges. Juggling work, life, and wedding details required careful organization, updated calendars, and the willingness to ask for help. But through it all, Bridgette stayed focused on what really mattered—marrying the love of her life.

“I felt gorgeous in my body—Studio Levana truly helped bring my vision to life”
