As Chaeni reflected on her wedding day, she expressed her favorite part was a small, yet magical moment during her ceremony!
"Walking down the aisle. Hands down! All eyes were on me while my hand was gripped tightly to my mom’s as I walked. I had true tunnel vision. All I could see was my husband, the man who I knew from the very first time we met that he would be my forever. It was magical! If I could bottle up that feeling and relive it everyday I would."

When it came to saying YES to the dress, Chaeni fell in love at first sight.
"I went into dress shopping at Charlottes without any clue of what my dream dress would be. I brought my mom and sister with me and I asked them to help pick out a few dresses along side me. The lady who helped me felt like a long lost best friend. She was kind and open to hearing my concerns and wants. The very first dress I tried on fit me like a glove. It was beautiful with soft petals all over and boning that I’ve never seen on a wedding dress before. I cried. I tried on about 7 more dress after until ultimately trying that first one (my one) back on and deciding.
Both my veil and dress were bought at Charlotte's which’s made the whole process seamless! The veil had the exact same petals on it as my dress! I caught it out of the corner of my eye and just knew I had to have it for my big day. I am a huge advocate for sales and have to say that there was no shortage of beautiful dresses that one might think on a sale only day. "

When thinking back on their special day, Chaeni's advice is ultimately about giving yourself the opportunity to be present and in the moment on your wedding day.
"For the love of God please get a day of wedding coordinator. I thought “oh I don’t need one of those!” And gosh was I wrong lol."
