Surrounded by the warm embrace of those who adored them, their ceremony became a testament to the power of love and the beauty of togetherness. It was a day filled with laughter, tears, and endless love—a day that will forever be etched in the hearts of all who witnessed the beginning of their journey as husband and wife. Congratulations Mariya and Johan! Welcome to the Believe Bride family!

The Proposal! I was 8 months pregnant with our baby boy, we came home from a long day and as I walked into the house, he put on our song Tennessee Whiskey and proposed to me!

The Dress! I had no idea what I wanted in a dress. I used to love strapless dresses but since having a child I didn’t think one would look good on me until finally I put one on anyways and it made me feel beautiful and I instantly thought of how my fiancé would love it too!

The Big Day! One of our front rows was strictly saved for loved ones who passed away, the other side front row was for all the immediate family, since they would be joined into one. We did our first look before the ceremony, and it was beautiful and so intimate. Everything went extremely smooth and better than I could have ever imagined. Being surrounded by people who love us, and our children was the best part!

What was your favorite part of your wedding? My favorite part was when we said I do because I was finally locking in my best friend and the family we have created permanently!

Special Memories! My uncle was the one who raised me since I was 3. My dad is on and off in my life and he came to the wedding but after he left, I put on a song that my uncle and I used to sing together all the time and dance with him along with singing it too!

What advice would you give to future brides? It’s a hard road, the stress of doing everything before the wedding is no joke but it is WORTH IT. All the small fights, all the big fights mean nothing after you finally say I do to the person you love. Don’t let the stress stop you from marrying who you love!
