Mariya + Johan

Mariya and Johan's wedding on the 23rd of September was a truly sweet and intimate affair, overflowing with tender moments between the couple and their cherished family. With heartfelt joy in their eyes, Mariya and Johan exchanged their vows in a private setting, allowing the purity of their love to shine through. 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!

Faith + Hayden

Faith and Hayden's wedding on August 26th was an enchanting celebration that captured the essence of their love. The entire week leading up to the big day was filled with festivities, creating a magical atmosphere. From the thrilling rodeo and games, there was never a dull moment. On the day itself, warm smiles and watery eyes filled the air as Faith walked down the aisle, radiating sheer joy. The reception was just as amazing, with mouthwatering tacos and a hidden underground bar that added to the joyous occasion. As the night unfolded, an intense bridesmaid’s vs groomsmen dance off took place, leaving everyone ready to dance the night away. Faith and Hayden's wedding was a truly memorable event, etching itself into the hearts of all who attended. Congratulations Faith and Hayden! Welcome to the Believe Bride family!

The Proposal! My now husband planned an entire day for me! We revisited all of our first date spots and got my favorite food and drinks, we painted and went for a drive and then ended on a bridge decorated with flowers and candles where he proposed!

The Dress! Along the journey to find my dress I tried to walk in with an open mind. Ever since I was little I dreamed of being a princess, so when I tried on my flower and sparkle filled dress I knew it was the one. I put it on and felt like a bride… I could see myself and my life to come all at once when I put on this dress. My face lit up and there wasn’t a second thought.

The Big Day! Ever since I was a little girl I have been planning extravagant birthday parties and sleepovers. So everyone knew this wedding was going to be BIG! We had around 5 days full of family and friends surrounding us as we prepared for the big day. We celebrated and enjoyed rodeo, shooting sports, and water adventures the entire week. Then came the day! So much family friends and love surrounding us and helping out! Through the ceremony there wasn’t a dry eye or laugh left out. The reception had bomb tacos that my mom made and not a single guest out of 300 missed their chance on the dance floor. The night ended with a bridesmaids vs grooms men dance off and we later found that the party continued even after we left! We truly felt celebrated and couldn’t have dreamed of anything better!

What was your favorite part of your wedding? We found that the entire wedding my uncle was running an underground bar, and it was very exclusive… LOL but mostly I enjoyed the part where I got to marry my best friend!

Special Memories! We honored our passed grandmas with a front row seat and got to have them there for our day.

What advice would you give to future brides? Enjoy being engaged! Have fun with it and don’t stress too much! All that matters is that at the end of your wedding day you are married to the love of your life, everything else will fall into place!

Maggie + Devin

On the 5th of August, 2023, Belle Gardens witnessed the heartwarming union of Maggie and Devin. Their wedding day was nothing short of magical, brimming with sentimental memories and the presence of their cherished friends and family. The atmosphere was imbued with love and excitement as Maggie shared a first look with both Devin and her father, creating enduring memories to be cherished forever. Surrounded by the people who mattered most, Maggie and Devin celebrated a day that will forever hold a special place in their hearts. Congratulations Maggie and Devin! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

The Proposal! My (now husband) took me to Manito Park on the pretense of taking a nice photo for his family's Christmas card and brought his best friend (who is a photographer) to get the picture. As we were taking the photo, he stepped behind me, knelt down, and pulled out the ring box. He then told me to turn around and I was so surprised and overjoyed! It was the fastest and easiest yes of my life.

The Dress! When I came into Believe Bride I brought my mom, my sister who was my maid of honor, and both of my grandmas It was such a special time. We were helped by Meagan and she was absolutely amazing! So kind, excited, talented at her job, and such a hype-woman! I tried on several different styles, but knew that I wanted something a little but whimsical/enchanted garden to match my venue. Honestly all the dresses I tried on were stunning, but I fell in love with one in particular and after that it was an easy choice!

The Big Day! Our wedding was everything we wanted and more! Some of the things that stood out however are as follows:
1. We had everyone we wanted in our bridal party, even if that meant our number of bridesmaids and number of groomsmen were unmatched, and that I thought people would think I had "too many bridesmaids." Honestly, though, it didn't matter at all. We had 9 bridesmaids and 6 groomsmen and we are so glad we included everyone we wanted to. 10/10 would do the same way again.
2. As part of our ceremony, our pastor had us each (separately) write down 4 memories that were core to why we fell in love with each other and why we wanted to get married. He then shared these during the ceremony and it was so touching. We had guests say it was the most touching wedding ceremony they had been to, and it was so special for my now-husband and I to hear those things each other had written.
3. We had my aunt and uncle and their band Goodnight Suzie play music at our ceremony and reception. The touch of live music was so special and classy, and they did a wonderful job! It made it even more special that they were family.
4. We went a little "rogue" some might say from the classic food, and we had Mexican food! (my husband's favorite). We also had half cupcakes (because cake is my favorite) and half donuts (because that's my husband's favorite), and we were glad we did all of those things--even though it wasn't necessarily the wedding standard. People really enjoyed it, too!
5. We had a sparkler exit! Honestly so magical and made for some amazing photos! 10/10 recommend if your venue is okay with it.

What was your favorite part of your wedding? My favorite part was during the ceremony when my now-husband and I got to hear what we'd written about each other for the first time. It was so sweet and really conveyed the depth of our love for each other. Honestly the party was amazing, but that's my favorite part of the whole night.

Special Memories! The first looks we did were really sweet. I did one with my now-husband, one with my dad, and one with my bridesmaids. I also had a special moment with my mom, sister (MOH), and younger cousin (Jr. Bridesmaid) where they were the only two that helped me get dressed. That was we could have a special moment just the four of us--well and the photographers and videographer, too 😂

What advice would you give to future brides? Make sure you fill the space around you with people you love and love you back. Don't be worried that you'll have too many bridesmaids--include all your close friends. They will be the ones that are taking care of you that day and hopefully that are there for you the rest of your life. Two of my bridesmaids kept bringing me and my husband water during the photo sessions, another one would bring us snacks or juice, another one held my dress as I walked around—don’t let the "normal" conventions of a wedding stop you from including the people or things important to you. I took my mom’s advice on this and am so glad I did.

Vendor Credit!

We had some amazing vendors who I would wholeheartedly recommend.
1. Belle Gardens was our venue, and it was absolutely stunning. The owner, Gina, truly goes above and beyond to make your day perfect.
2. Out florist, Evergreen Floral, was wonderful! Song and Jo, a mother/daughter team, were so kind and put together the most beautiful flowers I've ever seen.
3. Our photographer, Tiffany Lauren, was absolutely amazing. She took spectacular photos, was a major hype-woman, and even helped my mom and sister bustle my dress when we needed help 😂
4. Our videographers at Breite Videography did a wonderful job, as well! They were everywhere getting footage, all day long!
5. Our cake and cupcakes were from Sweet Dreams Bakery and they were absolutely delicious and stunning, to boot!
6. My makeup artist, Aly from Beauty Bandit, and my hair stylist, Lucia from Rooted and Rogue Salon, did such incredible jobs making me feel like a princess!
7. Our food was from Nectar Catering and it was delicious!
8. Like I mentioned above, my aunt and uncle's band Goodnight Suzie provided the music and DJing, and they did an incredible job.
9. My dress was altered by Leslie at Lace Envy and she did a fabulous job!
10. Our rings were from Pounders Jewelry which is where my parents' wedding rings were from. They are lifetime customers, and we will be, too!

Heather + Kory

On the 12th of August, at the enchanting Grand Willow Inn, Heather and Kory tied the knot in a wedding that exuded classic elegance with a hint of 1920s glamour. The venue was adorned with stunning florals, filling the air with their sweet fragrance. The ambiance was remarkably peaceful, lending a romantic touch to the celebration. Among the guests was a charming chicken, sporting a haircut that would make Einstein jealous. With every element falling into place, Heather and Kory's special day was nothing short of perfect, leaving everyone with memories that will endure for a lifetime. Congratulations Heather and Kory! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

The Proposal! I knew a proposal was coming - we had looked at rings together, discussed style, size, and stone. I thought for sure that he would propose while we were visiting my family for my niece's birthday, but he apparently had other plans! The day before we left our house in Seattle for the trip across the state, he took me out for a picnic at waterfront park. We brought our camera because it was the most perfect day, with a clear view of the Olympic mountains just across the Puget Sound. We got so lucky and had the entire park to ourselves (unheard of on a sunny summer evening in Seattle). He started looking through some old photos on the camera, taking me on a trip down memory lane. Finally, he handed me the camera and said to look at the last two photos. I didn't suspect a thing, but the last two photos were just plain text - "You're perfect. I love you. I love us." and "Will you marry me?" - by the time I registered what was happening and looked up at him, he was down on one knee! We had the most perfect evening to ourselves, enjoyed the sunset, and the next day he had planned a dinner with all of my family in Leavenworth to celebrate the engagement.

The Dress! Believe Bride was the second dress shop I went to and my experience here was incredible. We loved having the space to ourselves so we could really soak in the moment! I was really having trouble figuring out exactly what I wanted - I knew what I liked and what I didn't, but I was just having trouble finding a dress that was JUST RIGHT. My sister was adamant that I needed to try on the first dress that we pulled for a second time - and there was one other dress I had been thinking about. I tried both of them on again and we dressed them up - one needed a veil, belt, and headpiece to feel complete, but the first dress only needed a veil. As I stood there holding the bouquet, I could feel the emotions suddenly well up. I felt like a bride. I couldn't help the tears - this was my dress!

The Big Day! My wedding day was everything I could've asked for and more. After two years of stressing over every detail, I was so at peace. I didn't have to worry about a thing, it felt like I was just floating through the day. A classic wedding!

What was your favorite part of your wedding? My husband and I took about 10-15 minutes after the ceremony and after we signed our marriage certificate, while our guests were off to happy hour. Just the two of us in the bridal suite. We sat there on the edge of the bed and took it all in. The fullness you feel in your heart that spreads throughout your entire body, to your fingers and toes. High on the excitement that we were finally wed. So much love. We shared some Oreos that the bridal party had been snacking on while getting ready. We held hands. Prepared ourselves to go see the crowd of people waiting for us. Reveled in the quiet. It was honestly the best part of the day.

Special Memories! Our wedding was at a beautiful 1920s-era dairy farm house that was converted into an inn with stunning gardens and a Victorian gazebo situated under a massive willow tree. Because the venue is surrounded by farms, the neighbor's chicken decided to make an appearance and hung about our venue all day. We nicknamed him Einstein for his silly hairdo and all of our guests loved seeing him wander around like he owned the place - he really just added that perfect je-ne-sais-quoi.

What advice would you give to future brides? Have one of your bridesmaids near the end of the reception gather all of your gifts and cards together, clean up the getting ready space and load all of your things into your car for you. Make sure they leave out some PJs for you to change into! Once the last guests left our venue, I was completely drained from the day. I grabbed my husband and had him unbutton my dress for me, then took my hair down and changed in the PJs my sister left out for me so that I could get around more easily. Since she had already loaded the car, all we had to grab were a handful of items and it made the end of the night so much easier!

Jaedyn + Blake

We are so happy to share that our very own stylist, Jaedyn married the love of her life, Blake on September 23rd at Trezzi Winery. It was an enchanting affair, brimming with unique and vintage touches. If you’ve had the pleasure of finding your dream dress with Jaedyn, you know that she loves finding unique and antique pieces and their wedding was no different! Jaedyn curated an exquisite collection of antique glasses, suitcases, and one-of-a-kind pieces. From the moment they exchanged their private vows, it was evident that this day was filled with special moments for Jaedyn, Blake, and their families. Truly, it was a wedding that blended timeless elegance with joyful memories that will last a lifetime. We are so excited to celebrate Jaedyn and Blake and welcome them (officially) into the Believe Bride family!

The Proposal! Blake did amazing. It was our 2 year anniversary but he asked me to help him with cleaning and then filming a video for his collector's car. We drove out to Higgins Point in Coeur d' Alene, ID (I had no idea he was filming us the whole time). When we reached the spot, he told me he wanted to do a photoshoot of me and the car. While I was posing for pictures, he grabbed the ring out of the car and got down on one knee. It was the most perfect day and we both cried a little 💕

The Dress! I knew I found my dress at Believe because I felt so confident and comfortable in it. My dress fit me perfectly right off the rack and was exactly what I envisioned. I wanted something unique to express my personality and style, so the off the shoulder neckline and 3D lace was absolutely perfect!

The Big Day! We had THE BEST day ever!! My husband and I put together many personalized details throughout the day including antique drinking glasses, dried florals, old suitcases, unique color choices, and of course had to be in the fall. Our venue was perfect because you can see the mountain ranges all around and September has the best weather. We got sunset pictures taken for our private Vows and I even changed into a short dress so I could do a choreographer dance with my dad! You could feel all the emotions on our day, with my dad giving me away and being our officiant, my mom being my matron of honor, and Blake's brother being his best man. So many people traveled from far away and we were able to spend a lot of time talking and dancing with everyone! We are so happy to finally be married ❤️

What was your favorite part of your wedding? Walking down the aisle was the most anxious I've ever felt, I seriously thought I was growing to throw up lol... but once I saw Blake, I locked my eyes on him and everything else faded into the background.

Special Memories! Our wedding day was the first time I had ever seen my dad cry, which of course made everyone there cry too.

My mom is my best friend (hence why she was my matron of honor) and we share a special love of poetry. For her speech, she began with a poem she wrote and it was very special to me. She also was diagnosed with breast cancer this year and was so strong and courageous, and is now cancer free. It meant so much that she was healthy and able to be a part of our wedding.

What advice would you give to future brides? Try your best to enjoy the day and be as present as possible. Make sure to have special time alone with your husband, and make sure you both have time to eat.

Emma + Keneth

Emma and Keneth's wedding on August 12th at the scenic Cider Mountain was an enchanting celebration of love. Nestled in the woods, the rustic setting exuded an air of natural beauty. The venue was adorned with delicate eucalyptus and elegant white florals, that only added to the beautiful setting. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, the day overflowed with warm smiles and heartfelt embraces. From the exchange of vows to the sweet moments on the dance floor, everything came together flawlessly. Emma and Keneth's wedding was an impeccable and breathtaking affair, leaving everyone in awe of the perfect union and the cherished memories forged that day. Congratulations Emma and Keneth! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

The Proposal! It was February 2nd,2022. Keneth took me to my favorite restaurant, and we had a nice dinner and he’s a car guy, so he always wants to go on drives, he took me up a mountain in Spokane Valley when it was a light and pretty snow fall and we got out of the car to look at all the lights from the valley and he got down on one knee.

The Dress! When I went to Believe Bride, I wasn’t planning on getting a dress that day, I was just trying to figure out a style that I loved. I ended up trying on 5 dresses and I loved them, but they didn’t seem like “the one”. There was one more in the dressing room and I didn’t like it on the rack, but my best friend picked it out, I tried it on, and I had never felt more beautiful in my life, it fit perfectly right there, and I was in love.

The Big Day! My wedding was a rustic theme with my venue in the woods but at such a beautiful location. We had wooden benches and chairs with eucalyptus and white flowers on the tables. We had a taco bar for dinner because who doesn’t love tacos. The ceremony was perfect, I swear it was only 6 minutes and it was just what we wanted. I’m so happy that I chose the beginning of august, it was right before all the fire started and it was such a perfect day with a tiny bit of wind.

What was your favorite part of your wedding? My favorite part of the day was getting ready with my girls. There were so many laughs and so many memories made in one day.

Special Memories! My wedding photographer is one of my very close friends, when she got there, she brought me my favorite coffee and said she was so excited for the day. My grandpa passed away in May and it was so hard for me knowing that he couldn’t be there, but when Brooke was driving to the venue she started to pray for us and told me that she felt my grandpa with her and he was saying he’s so happy for us and so proud of us and she had never felt that before and it honestly made the day so much easier knowing he was there in spirit.

What advice would you give to future brides? Find the best coordinator, whether it’s family or friends or a professional, so many little things will go wrong, and you just have to let it slide and not let it ruin your day.

Gabrielle + Stephen

Gabrielle and Stephen's wedding on the 14th of July at Arbor Crest Winery was a true celebration of love and joy. The beautiful sunny weather set the perfect backdrop for their special day.

It was a day that will forever be remembered as a testament to Gabrielle and Stephen's love and the start of their beautiful journey together. Congratulations Gabrielle and Stephen! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

The Proposal! We got engaged at Las Vegas!

The Dress! I went in looking for the Disney dress, and I came out falling in love with a new dress that was similar to the bell dress, but I fell absolutely in love with this dress!

The Big Day! My wedding was outside and the color theme was red wine and rosé wine it was completely beautiful and sunny and very hot!

What was your favorite part of your wedding? Getting to talk to all my friends and family and getting to enjoy those amazing small moments with them.

Special Memories! My mom ended up, bawling her eyes out when my dad and me were dancing!

Sara + Payton

Sara and Payton's wedding on the 26th of August 2023, was a day filled with beauty and love. Set against the backdrop of a serene river, the atmosphere was nothing short of enchanting. Every detail had been meticulously planned, resulting in a perfect day that radiated sentimentality. However, one of the most touching moments was undoubtedly the daddy-daughter dance. As Payton twirled his new daughter in his arms, the room was filled with teary eyes and loving smiles. It was a truly magical celebration, where cherished memories were created, and love was celebrated in its purest form. Congratulations Sara and Payton! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

The Proposal! We were up in Spokane for a concert and met up with family and friends for dinner. My husband surprised me with the proposal at one of our favorite restaurants, and then got to go to a meet and greet with the band!

The Dress! The dress I picked was actually the very first dress I tried on. After about 8-10 other dresses I knew that first dress was the one. It was exactly what I was looking for (and it had pockets). My stylist took all of my inspo pictures and nailed it!

The Big Day! We wanted our wedding to just be a celebration all day. The entire day went so smoothly with no hiccups. We wanted very natural, on the river feel. The venue was perfect!

What was your favorite part of your wedding? After the ceremony and normal wedding activities, my favorite part of the night was dancing and enjoying my time with all of our family and friends!

Special Memories: The most special memory was the father daughter dance between my daughter and new husband. The entire crowd was crying. They danced to My Girl by Elvie Shane.

What advice would you give to future brides? Don't stress over the little things. In the end just enjoy your day and the love you have for your future spouse.

Kiley + Johnny

Kiley and Johnny's wedding on June 24th, 2023, at Twin Creeks Farm was a truly enchanting affair. Surrounded by lush greenery and breathtaking scenic views, their outdoor ceremony was a sight to behold. Laughter and joy filled the air as loved ones gathered from all over the world to celebrate their special day. With smiles on their faces and love in their hearts, Kiley and Johnny danced the night away, embraced by the warmth of their family and friends. It was an unforgettable evening of love, laughter, and cherished memories. Congratulations Kiley and Johnny! Welcome to the Believe Bride Family!

The Dress! The dress was absolutely perfect! I had been looking at dresses on Pinterest for months before coming in to find a dress and I was shocked that the dresses at this shop were just like the ones I had seen on Pinterest! Every one of them beautiful and unique in their own way. But this one in particular, the way it fit, the way it felt, all of the sparkle and detail, I knew it was the one as soon as I saw it on myself!

The Big Day! Our wedding was beautiful. We chose a wonderful time to have the wedding outdoors, the weather was perfect, and everything was so green! I felt like a princess with all of the finishing touches, all of the sparkles everywhere and there were birds flying all around. It was peaceful and serene, which is exactly what we wanted. All of our guests said they were impressed with how peaceful and enjoyable everything was. Everything went smoothly. We did have a thunderstorm in the forecast, luckily for us it didn’t start to rain until after the ceremony ended and the pictures were taken. The thunderstorm went over us as we were all gathered in the barn for the reception. And by the time we were ready to dance, the storm has passed. It was perfect. We were truly blessed on our special day and we gathered the best team of people to make it all happen! We had so much fun, and we have so many beautiful timeless memories to hold onto.

What was your favorite part of your wedding? It is tough to choose a favorite moment. The whole day felt magical 🤍 I think my favorite part was when I was walking down the aisle and my (soon to be) husband saw me for the first time in my wedding dress. He had tears streaming down his face, it was a beautiful moment and I felt the intensity of his love for me.

Special Memories: A few special memories…
We had a very close family friend travel internationally from Dubai to be there with us and we got to spend some time with her and her new husband. It was the first time I had seen her in years!
I was very touched by all of the speeches that were given. Everyone spoke from their hearts.
My little sister, who is only 15 made me cry because she took the opportunity to tell me how much I have helped her over the years, it was beautiful to hear and I was surprised to hear that I had so much influence in her life. It made me feel really good knowing my hard work was making a difference.
I was also surprised that my dad got up and made a toast to our marriage as well. He isn’t really the type of person to speak in front of a crowd, so I knew it took a lot of courage for him to come up and say something. It meant a lot for him to everyone about how much he supports our relationship and how happy he is for us.
One of the coolest takeaways from this wedding was that all of the vendors we hired worked together so incredibly well, it almost felt like we were on the set of a movie because it was so organized, and everyone worked together so seamlessly! We brought together old friends, and started new connections. We referred to all of them as “the dream team”. Their commitment, efficiency and hard work really made for a magical day.

What advice would you give to future brides? Enjoy your day! Planning my own wedding, I spent so much time stressing all of the details up to the wedding. In the end all of those details were noticed and the day went perfectly because I did not need to worry about anything. All of my hard work paid off. And having a good team to support you and run the show is very important. I was just a star in my show , rather than playing director.
