Cara & Luke Blair

Cara looked absolutely phenomenal in her v-neck Essense of Australia gown. This gentle a-line dress with scattered lace was perfect for her vision for her big day! On her short timeline, we made sure to find her something not only perfect for her wedding day but also off the rack and available to take home that same day!

From the Bride: "Before I went to Circle Park Bridal Boutique, I knew it would be very special experience since my sister, Cayla Cummins got her dress there over 4 years ago. I got engaged on July 1st, 2018. We finally narrowed down the date, which would only give me 5 months to plan everything.

A lot of people were shocked when they found out how short our engagement was but Luke and I have been apart for the majority of our relationship and we were ready for this next chapter of our lives and to finally be together. So, I had to search for a dress that was on the rack that was somewhat my size since getting alterations are fairly expensive.

Thinking of my dream wedding dress was very simple, classy and whimsical. The girl who helped me (Stephanie) was AMAZING. She made me feel very comfortable and when I told her my idea she went searching for options.

After grabbing a few dresses, I tried two on and didn't feel like they had that wow factor I was searching for. Then I tried on the dress you see in these photos and it made me feel very confident and fit perfectly with my style.

The open back, the mesh in the front with the detail around the neckline, and the little bit of lace was beyond perfect. I knew when Luke saw me in this dress he would love it just as much as I did.

My overall experience with wedding planning was hard at times since we had a short time frame but I booked the most amazing vendors and my wedding dress experience was 5/5. It all came together so perfectly and we're so thankful for everyone involved and for both of our parents."
