Travis and I met almost two years ago,I worked in as a hairstylist in a salon at the time. Travis' mother Rebecca had come to have her hair done at my salon for close to five years, so I knew her very well and we would always share a good laugh when she would come in. Travis would also come in from time to time to have his hair cut,I was never the one to cut it but I would see him and he had a tendency to watch me in the mirror,as pointed out by my manager (who totally called him out one day to his embarassment!). One day my manager/close friend invited me to a passion party,for those who aren't sure what this is,it is basically a get together to buy sex toys and lingerie lol, Travis' mother Rebecca and his sister Katy happened to be in attendance of this party,they approached me and his mother mentioned to me that her son Travis was single and how great we would be together. I kinda shrugged it off,at the time I was lovin single life.She said well he'll be in to get his hair done soon so check him out!She's a funny lady, so I kept it in mind.

So a few weeks later in walks Travis,all in his dirty work clothes (he's an electrical apprentice),looking very handsome. We shared a few laughs and out he went.About a few days later his mom came in to have her hair done,"oh he was talkin bout you last time I talked to him,how cute he thought you were" she said."But he is too shy a person to ask you out" so I said alright then I'll take the first leap and told her to give him my number.A few days later he called saying how it was the strangest way he'd ever gotten a number,through his mom, but we went on our first date and that was it,we were in love.Mom knows best I guess.

This past August 21st we were having a celebration for my 25th birthday at his families cottage,he had been acting nervous the past week, and even had a twitch in one eye!But I had no clue what was in store,he had told me he wasn't ready to get married yet which had upset me so I dropped the discussion.We had a large group of friends up and he was busy showing them around and going on boat rides with them.I was feeling a bit left out and asked him to go for a walk with me.He said he wanted to take his friend chris on the boat,so I pouted a bit and his dad offered to take me for a walk.We went berry picking and had a nice chat. When I got back Travis' mom Rebecca was coming out of the cottage: "Travis is inside,he would like to talk to you" she said without looking up at me. I thought what is this about is he upset with me,because I pouted,which I was already feeling guilty about.so I went inside and out came Travis in a fancy black suit,and me in my baseball hat with no makeup and grubby cottage clothes, I didn't know what to think, I started to shake."I have a question to ask you..will you grow old with me?" as he got down on one knee "will you marry me?"."Yes" I said,crying. We went outside where we were greeted with cheers and popping champagne,it was the best moment of my life and best birthday ever!

Picking my wedding dress from Best for Bride was completely painless. I was a little discouraged at first and wasn't loving the dress. Everyone wanted me to choose when the sales associate Natalia asked me if I had tried on a certain dress. When I responded "no", she told me to try it on and that it was going to be my dress. She was right!! I was crying before I left the changeroom, and once my mom and wedding party saw it and started crying I knew I had found the dress. I kept losing weight leading up until the wedding and alterations was great, fitting the dress exactly how I wanted it. When I walked down the aisle and my husband started to cry I knew then just how perfect the dress was. Thank you so much for making me feel like a princess on my wedding day!!!!

Sincerely,
Melissa Filice

Hi Best for Bride!
My wedding day was absolutely amazing and my dress was part of the reason why it was exactly that.

I had been shopping for exactly the right dress for my full figure and curves and did not really feel comfortable with my other experiences at other stores until I came to your store. All the sales clerks were helpful. The price was perfect and it arrived on time well in advance of the wedding date.

Thanks again for the wonderful experience!

Hello!

This is much later than I wanted it to be!

I want to thank everyone from Best for Bride who helped me during the hectic planning of my wedding. Everything went off perfectly, and a lot of it had to do with the help of everyone there.

I was worried about getting decor done at an affordable price, but when roaming around on the BFB website, I saw that it was offered. I showed up to the church and was amazed with the aisle drapery! Then showing up at the reception and seeing the head table - it was perfect. Thank you so much.

A special thank you to a couple of ladies:

Melloney - Thank you for being so supportive and assuring me that my dress would be perfect for the wedding. Thanks for not thinking I was a crazy lady when I bawled my eyes out in the change room!

Larissa - You're amazing. I would have been a wreck if I had not had you to help me with all of my dress woes. I've sent you another note of thanks. I hope that you can help me with the bridesmaid dress I will need in September 2011.

Again, thank you to everyone at Best for Bride. I'm sending a couple of pictures from my wedding on October 2, 2010.

All the best,
Sabrina Copeman
