Meet Real Bride Cassie


As always, we are thrilled to show you pictures of one of our real brides. Meet Cassie, who sent us these images along with a very sweet letter below. "...Greetings from Michigan! My name is Cassie and I recently wed the most amazing man, Nick on August 13, 2011. We are from a small town in southern Michigan. The same small town we swore we would never come back to after college. But as fate would have it, we made the same choice to choose careers that led us home. I met Nick in our small historic downtown the night he graduated from dental school . It only seemed fitting that our wedding would take place were it all started.

With the key components in place we started on the details. We wanted to honor the character of our community and the beauty of historic downtown. We wanted the whole day to feel glamorous but still have a vintage charm. With those components in mind, I knew I had to have an over the top headpiece. The ones I had viewed in the bridal salon were underwhelming and didn't have the drama I was needing. When I found Castle Bridal Couture I knew I had found the right veil. I chose the Belinda birdcage veil from the Haute Couture collection. It was one of the defining details of the wedding that made the day complete... and to be honest, it was the most photographed!..."

A huge thanks to Cassie for sharing these images with us!

Real Bride feature: Leila

Hello blog readers! I have a lovely wedding to share with you today. Leila so graciously emailed us with photos and a description of her wedding. I thought her message was so lovely I'll just include it here for you to see. Enjoy!

"...Thank you so much! Despite all the hullabaloo of pre-wedding preparations, not to mention all the weather warnings of showers for that day, we all had a wonderful time, with lots of music, dancing, food, and laughter. As soon as the clouds cleared for our outdoor ceremony, we knew it was a sign for the rest of the night. My extensive family made up the majority of the guests and had great fun mixing with my husband's family who came in from out of town to enjoy our customs and general folly (I'm originally Iranian). I'm happy to say everyone had a great time, but most of all me and Paul. And again, thank you for creating such a lovely veil, retro yet modern, elegant and fun!..."



Leila is totally rocking our Laura Birdcage veil from the CastleBride Haute Couture collection. Isn't it a stunning look!

Real Bride Kristine( Placencia) Ornelias

Meet Real Bride Kristine and her hubby Joshua!

Kristine was nice enough to send us both photos as well as a lovely paragraph about her wedding, we'll keep her own words here since only she can tell her story best!

"...My name is Kristine and I was born and raised in Los Angeles. I graduated from Cal State Fullerton and currently work for a Financial Management firm in Orange. My husband's name is Joshua and we've been together for 7 years. Our wedding day was May 8, 2010. 200 guests attended our special day which started with a very traditional Catholic ceremony. Our reception was at a beautiful venue called Summit House in Fullerton. Our colors were purples, blues and ivory. We had beautiful centerpieces and bouquets that consisted of bright hydrangeas, roses and lilies. One of the highlights of the evening was our favor table that had jars full of yummy candies. It was such a hit with our guests that there were huge lines for it! In addition to our wedding cake, we had a Lakers cake because my husband and I are huge Laker fans. Everyone thought it was cute and definitely represented us. The whole night was amazing, I couldn't have asked for a more perfect husband and wedding!
My veil was absolutely gorgeous and everyone kept complimenting it throughout the night. I attached some photos from the ceremony and reception,
the photos were taken by Edna Eudave..."
