She leisurely applied her make-up, sipped champaign and enjoyed watching her two closest friends open up their gifts in her bridal suite. Her daughter, almost a year old, played the piano and watched in fascination as her mom prepared for her wedding day. Today was the day, Tracey was going to marry Jerry. The two met over 4 years ago on an online dating site. Tracey knew Jerry was the one she wanted to call her husband, they shared similar interests, personality and meshed well. Basically their relationship boiled down to that they were best friends, the perfect ingredient for a marriage. Two and a half years into their relationship in the privacy of their home Jerry got down on his knee and nervously asked Tracey, “Will you marry me?” Tracey was super excited, said “yes” and gave him a hug.

Jerry and Tracey, thank you for welcoming me into the orbit of your love. Thank you for your thoughtfulness, kindness, and outright amazingness!!! You both welcomed my assistant and I into your perfect wedding day and made us feel like family. For this, and so much more, I thank you. Grace and Peace, April

Tracey dressed in a beautiful pair of Isola heels and a stunning Uptown Bridal wedding dress…
