A Love Story Years in the Making
For Dimitra’s Real Bride Monika, her wedding day wasn’t just a celebration of love—it was the high point of a journey that began in high school. Monika and Shawn, high school sweethearts, finally said their “I dos” in a stunning black and white themed wedding that combined their Croatian and Middle Eastern heritage, creating an unforgettable day filled with love, culture, and glamour.
Finding the Perfect Dress
For Monika, one of the most memorable parts of wedding planning was the dress shopping experience at Dimitra’s Bridal Couture. “It was super easy and helpful,” Monika shared, reflecting on her time at the boutique. After trying on different options, she found the one: a breathtaking Stephen Yearick gown adorned with crystals and ruffle appliqués. This glamorous choice perfectly captured Monika’s vision and added an extra sparkle to her big day.
Glamour Meets Elegance
The couple chose a black and white theme for their wedding, adding a sophisticated yet timeless touch to their celebration. Monika’s gown stood out against the sleek backdrop, with its dazzling crystal embellishments catching the light as she danced the night away. Paired with Shawn’s classic black tuxedo, the couple radiated elegance and style throughout the evening.
A Day to Remember
Surrounded by the people they love most, Monika and Shawn celebrated their union in a way that felt uniquely theirs. The merging of traditions, the glamorous details, and their undeniable love for one another made their wedding a standout event.
Advice for Future Brides
When asked about her advice for other brides, Monika emphasized the importance of enjoying the process. “Dress shopping can be one of the most fun parts of planning your wedding,” she shared, adding that working with the right team, like the experts at Dimitra’s, can make all the difference.
