Real Brides: Shelby

I actually met my husband through our friend group! We went to Body Zone in Reading, PA, to watch our friends play in a soccer game, and the rest is history. That was four years ago, and we’ve been inseparable ever since! He’s my other half and truly gets me like nobody else does. You can probably tell from our wedding photos that he’s seriously my best friend.

I knew my dress was the one—and it was actually the very first dress I tried on! I ended up trying on 7–8 dresses in total, but I kept comparing each of them to this one. My mom and mother-in-law instantly noticed how I lit up every time I put it on… I really couldn’t stop looking at myself in it, haha!
