Real Bride Sherry: An Elopement Filled with Joy, Forest Air and a Flowing Veil

Posted by Vaida Lileikiene on

"From the moment I opened the box with my veil in it, I was in love. It was so soft and flowy, and it matched my dress perfectly! The pearls added such an elegant touch to the veil and my wedding look. I wish there were more occasions to wear veils because I would wear mine all the time! It's easily the most beautiful item I own  Thank you for the part you played in making my wedding so special and beautiful!"

When Sherry reached out to share her story, it left a mark. There was no grand venue, no crowd, no chandeliers – just love, trees, and a cliffside breeze.

She met her now-husband in a sporting goods store. He helped her find a pair of shoes, asked her out, and got a "no." But Sherry changed her mind, came back, and asked him on a date. That beginning led to two years of love, a beachside proposal, and eventually – a wedding that wasn’t what they originally imagined… but became even more special.

Their wedding plan was interrupted by Covid. Instead of postponing indefinitely, they eloped to a state park with four guests. They hiked up a trail, changed into their wedding clothes behind a sheet, and had a mini-reception with cupcakes and cider. Their vows were sealed with a kiss – cheered on by kayakers floating below.

"When we remember our wedding, our hearts are so full."

We are honored that our soft pearl veil was part of this gentle and joyful day. Its flow caught the wind like it was meant to be there.

Thank you, Sherry, for your trust – and for letting us be part of something so real.
