“I love the lace on my dress. It really brings out the details in it. I also loved my shoes. I’m super tall so I wanted to find the perfect flats and they were very comfy.” — Tykeyah
“I loved the flowers at my wedding. We decided to do wood flowers because they last forever; I used them to decorate our home. A friend of mine made them, including my cascade bouquet, which came out stunning.” — Tykeyah
My biggest advice for brides is to enjoy your engagement and realize that everything will be okay, even when it seems like it won’t. I worried a lot about my wedding and now I wish I hadn’t. Those little details that stressed you out will not matter the day of or years to come. Try and enjoy each moment. — Tykeyah
