Real Wedding Wednesdays! Stephanie & Joey got married on 11.12.11

December 7th, 2011

A little about them

I honestly have to say that I married my best friend. Our relationship grows stronger every single day. After becoming his wife, I fell in love all over again. In life, you go thru a lot of ups and downs but knowing that Joey is right there every time I wake up and every time I go to bed, no matter what it may be, its all worth it in the end. Joey is such an amazing man and I am so extremely lucky. The day he proposed, was just an ordinary day, a perfect day. It was a Tuesday and we went out to dinner like we normally do, it was our date night. We went to dinner and then we went on a dock under a hotel in Redbank, NJ where we went on our first night to just talk and get to know one another. We were on the dock for all of 3 minutes and I turn around and there he is, down on one knee. It wasn’t anything crazy, or over the top, it was just perfect.

Stephanie’s search for the perfect wedding gown: For my wedding gown, I knew exactly what I wanted, slim fitted and nothing but lace. In looking online, I found my perfect dress. I wanted something simple, but elegant and classy. The White Gown was the first and last place I looked for my dream gown.

Stephanie’s Favorite Moment of the Wedding: Every moment of our day was a favorite. Just seeing everyone there around us, showed us how much we are loved and seeing everyone having a great time made our day even more perfect than it already was.

Stephanie and Joey’s Vendors: Everyone that we used for our amazing day was the best decisions we have ever made. Every vendor from the bakery for our cake to the hall, was fantastic. They were so accommodating and wanted to make your day as perfect as it already was. You were number one and they were so sweet, that if we could, we would do it all over again just so we can work with everyone again and also dance all night

I just want to thank everyone that was involved and responsible for making our wedding, the wedding of our dreams. It was more perfect than I could have ever imagined and working with all of you, has made everything worth it whether the planning was good or stressful, every minute was extremely worth and we wish we could do it again. You guys are truly amazing and I couldn’t thank you enough for making our day so unforgettable then it already will be.
