Featured Bride - Viri Ashby

In July of this year, Dan and Viri were married at Sky Retreat in Purlear, NC. The setting was spectacular and the mountain air was teaming with love. While the setting was indeed gorgeous, the weather was not. No sooner were the couple outside, then the rain began and they went to plan B. So underneath the patio, Viri's soon-to-be father-in-law walked her down the aisle in front of 80 guests.

The Wedding

While Viri shared that she laughs when she thinks about it, her fondest memory of the ceremony was everyone running with their chairs to take cover when the rain started. Ultimately, their atmosphere was relaxed and chill and no one minded.

The Dress

While Viri didn't have a specific vision, beyond looking beautiful and feeling comfortable, she ended up choosing something perfect for her. The belt and bling, the lace and train were her favorite aspects of the gown. 

"I loved working with BT and Kelly because she was so easy to work with. She was honest in her feedback and wasn’t there to sell you the most expensive gown. She was genuine and was simply trying to help me choose the dress that best fit me and my style"

Congratulations to Dan and Viri! Bridal Traditions was so happy to have been part of your day!
