Christina came to Strut from Tuscon to find her wedding gown. She said she really wanted a wedding dress with straps, but she wanted it to be simple with no train because they were going out afterward. She was headed north to the cooler climes of Flagstaff, Arizona, and had her wedding at the Little America Hotel and Conference Center. It has miles of Ponderosa pine trees and walking trails.
Here's a photo of Christina and her wedding party:
Doesn't she look radiant?! Although Christina originally was thinking about wearing a lace wedding dress, she fell in love with this super lightweight and flowy tulle aline gown. It featured just a bit of beading at the left waist, a subtly ruched bodice, and a corset back. Because it's so hard to find a plus size wedding dress with sleeves or straps, Christina had straps added during alterations.
We love the large hair comb she added to her delicate pearl necklace and earring set. Her wedding color, wisteria, shows up in her bridesmaid dresses, flowers, and even the groom's tie and pocket square!
She also sent an email with really kind words:
Hi Ladies, I wanted to thank you all for the wonderful service I received from you salon! I truly felt special and beautiful I received an email recently requesting pictures from my wedding and have attached several to this email. I want to let you know that I will forever sing Strut's praises and will ALWAYS recommend that sexy curvy brides-to-be go to your salon! Sincerely, Christina F. |
