REAL BRIDE: Emma

Emma + Justin

10.18.25

One of our very favorite things is getting to see our brides’ wedding photos after the big day, and getting a peek into Emma and Justin’s fall wedding was such a joy. Emma was an absolute vision in her Lis Simon gown, and every photo from their day is full of so much happiness, personality, and love. Truly, their smiles are everything.

From the vibrant florals to their bubble exit from the church to what looked like the most fun reception ever, every part of their day felt so genuine and full of celebration. We loved getting to see how Emma made her bridal look completely her own and how beautifully every detail came together. We’re so excited to share a little glimpse into their wedding day and celebrate this sweet Something White bride, so keep reading for more from Emma and Justin’s gorgeous fall wedding.

Did you have a specific theme in mind while planning (if any - colors, features, etc.)?

“We went for fall colors, lots of deep reds, golds, and some navy as well.”

How did you know your gown was "the one"?

“I knew the silhouette I wanted and did not really stray from my initial idea. I kept coming back to the same style and knew this would be how I felt the most confident and comfortable. I felt so beautiful and myself the day of my wedding and wouldn't have it any other way!”

How did the two of you meet?

“We met in high school through mutual friends! We went to different colleges, but stayed together through it all and finally got married this past fall.”

What was one of your favorite moments from your wedding day?

“Absolutely everything!! We had the best day and it was so special to celebrate our love with friends and family. We absolutely loved our ceremony and then danced all night with the best band, we got so many compliments on how fun of a wedding it was!”

Congratulations, Emma + Justin, on the most beautiful beginning to your next chapter together.

We loved getting to celebrate alongside you in a small way and see Emma bring her bridal vision to life so beautifully. Wishing you both so much joy, laughter, and love in married life!
