The Story Behind the Dress

"I think we both knew pretty early on but it took us some time to admit it. Lots of rock climbing adventures, alpine hikes, sushi dates, and movie nights later we finally started to officially date."

"On our third date, we got pancakes at this diner in a small town. We were both still nervous and giggly and talked about everything and anything! It was around Christmas time and a nice old man approached us!"

"I was so excited when I got the box with the wedding dress! I waited until my mom was there to open it with her, and it was a very special moment. I did not expect the dress to be so soft and comfortable, it's literally the most comfortable dress I own!"

"I was looking for a relaxed, beautiful wedding dress that was ethically made. I spent SO long searching online and then one day Wear Your Love popped up on my Instagram! I instantly fell in love with all of the dresses."

"At the very end of the photoshoot, he got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife. It was beautiful, lightly raining, with a beautiful canyon in the background."

"When I pulled the Ellora dress out of the box I immediately fell in love with it and put it on and fell even more in love with how soft it was and how it fell perfectly on my body. I was amazed at how well it fit me physically and fit my personality."

"The very first time we spoke. I can honestly say I knew I would marry him from the moment I met him. His soul spoke to mine."

"So after a quick check with his friends and family, and most importantly with my girls, I decided to propose to him! I got a special t-shirt made, and wrote my proposal on a softball. Just before the start of his Friday night game Ben's brother and the umpire helped get Ben over to home plate so we could scoot out to the pitcher's mound and pitch him the ball."

"There wasn't exactly a 'moment' but eventually, I realized that I didn't want to experience life without him in it. We are an amazing team and always make it a point to make our life FUN. He is the most kind hearted, caring, hardworking and hilarious person I've ever known and I'm so grateful to have him in my life!"

"I never really did the traditional bridal shop experience - I just knew this was the dress and the kind of company I wanted to work with."

"I remember as soon as I saw her in it, that was my dress. I wasn't even engaged at the time haha. But I just knew that was the one I would want."

Tell us about the proposal ...

My husband and I decided to meet my parents in Panama and explore the country together. On the third day, we decided to do a coffee tour in a beautiful town called Boquete. We learned how the coffee was processed from the bean to coffee grounds. At the end of the tour, we had the chance to make and drink our own coffee. After several shots of espresso, we decided to go up a hill and take a picture with the mountains behinds us. Before I knew it, he was down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Second best day of my life apart from my wedding day!!
