The Reception
Our vision for the wedding was beautiful rose gold theme, with an elegant royal touch. Hamzeh had a traditional Jordanian entrance and I had a Disney fairytale princess entrance. It was beyond perfect, it was a mix of both our cultures and childhood dreams. The decor featured different shades of gold as well as sequins. I wanted mixed centerpieces incorporating different sizes, so we had four different types, some tall, some short, some full and some trees. We wanted a grand feel to the ballroom and got just that. The night was amazing! It turned out perfect! So elegant! We were both so happy, we still get compliments about the wedding whenever we see anyone that attended.
Lina’s Dress Search
Oh my! I tried on more than 25 dresses. This one was over the price I wanted to spend, but I just couldn’t get it out of my mind. I felt like a princess. The gown was stunning! I worked so hard on making it a piece of art. I always dreamed of a dress with a long train, so I had the designer extend the train a few feet. Every time I would try on the dress I would fall in love with it more and more. It was one dress that wowed everyone that would walk into the boutique. I had 14 family and friends that had to agree on the dress and that was the one that took everyone’s breath away, including my husband on our wedding day.
How Lina Felt in Her Wedding Dress
Royal, gorgeous, elegant
Why Lina Decided to Sell Her Wedding Dress
My dress made me feel so amazing, I would like to share that feeling with someone else. I think every bride should feel as royal, gorgeous and elegant on her wedding day as I did. I decided to pass it down to someone to share the feelings I had.
