Follow Your Heart... Elizabeth shares her love story


It's your wedding day, YOUR wedding day... Who says you have to wear a white dress? Who says you have to follow the trends of other brides? No one. This is the day you get to follow your heart that has lead you to this day in the first place.
 I met Graham at Arizona State University in 2007, and we developed a friendship almost instantly while studying Electromagnetism in the Engineering program. We quickly learned that there were more sparks flying between us than what we were observing in lab. We waited to get engaged until after we both graduated (4 years later!). However, that wait made planning my wedding that much more special. I knew I HAD to get my dress at Suzanne's because my older sister had such a great experience when selecting her wedding dress. Suzanne's did not disappoint. I came in for my first appointment with my notes on what I wanted and didn't want in a dress: sweetheart top, lace, anything but white and princess, and definitely not strapless. I basically wanted to stand out, and have my dress be a reflection me and my relationship with Graham. In just 45 short minutes, Suzanne's and my older sister pulled my dress, Jasmine T180, in gold. I fell in love with the lace, the cut, the sweetheart top, the sash, and the cute bolero. It was unexpected, and everything I had hoped for, just like Graham... 

People ask, "How do you know when he's 'the one'?" This question is often answered with the obvious, "You just know," but as an engineer, and a problem solver, I know there is more to it than just knowing. Falling in love shouldn't start in your head with what you know, but your heart with what you feel. I fell in love with Graham because he was... well, charming, kinda geeky (like me), funny, and he made me feel happiness I had never before experienced. I was reminded of all of the reasons I loved Graham when I looked into the mirror wearing MY wedding dress that Thursday afternoon in October- the dress that I wore the first time I was called Mrs. Graham...- the start of my life with Graham, my husband. Suddenly, March 3, 2012 seemed farther away than that first day in Electromagnetism, when I first met the man I would marry.

 
So don't stop following your heart... ever.
