Gwen's #WeddingWednesday

Happy #WeddingWednesday and congratulations to this weeks couple, Gwen and her husband Shaun who were married this past July.
 Gwen & Shaun have a pretty awesome story, they shared in with their wedding program. Their story starts with "the day Gwen & Shaun met, they didn't know the fate that had already been decided for them."

"Just as Gwen was about to give up on online dating, Shaun dropped her a message. After several messages and texts, over the next week, they met in person on February 18, 2012 at Biggby coffee in Lansing. The conversation flowed like two friends catching up after years apart."
Shaun asked Gwen to be his wife July 2013, and the began planning quickly. Gwen had a short window of dates to choose from "without any prior knowledge to the events that happened on this day, she chose July 26. It was the one in the middle of the three weekends available." Again fate was by their side, "on this very day in 2007, Shaun was injured in Iraq. As sad of a situation as it was, it is because of that very day that these two would meet. If it was not for Shaun's injuries, he would not have been in Michigan, he would not have sent that message, and today would not be happening" as it said on their wedding program.
"Fate brought these two together & today turns what used to be a sad anniversary for Shaun into a happy joyous day to celebrate for the rest of their lives."
The couple was married at the Sun Theater in Grand Ledge and they had a fun 50's/ Rockabilly theme! "Our wedding party included 17 people (some of the absolute best people we know) who all danced down the aisle and looked FABULOUS doing so" Gwen says.

The wedding was so fun, " we were surrounded by our family & friends who tossed popcorn as we walked back down the aisle!"

Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Smith
We are so happy for you!

Emily was so worried about finding a gown for her special day. " We picked out 4 dresses an started trying them on, I wasn't feeling like any of them was "The one".

CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE VIDEO! The Bombshell team had BLAST making this video, it even featured some of our brides! This song hit us all a different way but what they lyrics say are so true to who we are as a team. We have all struggled at one time or another with our body image, how people see us, and our "secrets". This was our way spreading the message that EVERY body is beautiful and not to hide who you are. We worked with some talented people to create this video! Complete Video Solutions shot the footage and used some pretty amazing techniques to create a really cool look! Hair and make up services were provided to Team Bombshell by the bridal team and Bell Amore Salon . The ladies here have worked with us at bridal shows as well! We love them...
