The couple’s beautiful romance is reflected in this timeless and minimalistic wedding……

December 31, 2018 by Social Media Team

Thank you Giant Invitations for sharing this beautiful Real Life Wedding with us…….

Bride’s Full Name: Aneta Batinic (Now Bruzzese)      Groom’s Full Name: Christopher Bruzzese

Wedding Date: 22nd April 2017     How many guests? 150

How did you and your partner meet?
We met when I was 15 at an underage disco, but we didn’t get together until we were older.

I was 21 and he was 25.

How did he propose?
In a bedroom with flowers spelling “Will you marry me?”

What’s your most important piece of advice for creating and maintaining a strong relationship?
Listen to each other!!!

How did you choose your wedding gown?
It was a simple beaded, ivory gown.

I loved it because it wasn’t over the top! 

What sort of style did you envision for your wedding day?
Classic wedding with simple white & green flowers.

Traditional reception layout with round tables.

No actual theme, just simple and modest.

What was your favorite moment from the day?
Standing at the church listening to the priest announce us husband and wife.

If you could do it all over again, what would you change?
I would have less people in the bridal party.

Any tips that you can give to future brides?
Always choose things that YOU like. It is your style, not anyone else’s. Only you will look back at the photos and appreciate it.

Keep your wedding within your budget. Just remember it is only one day!
