What was your experience at Casa de Novia

I went to Casa on a recommendation from a friend and could not have been more pleased

with my experience. Luvi and Carmen were absolutely wonderful in helping me find my

dream dress. They were so accommodating with fittings when my mom and sister had to

fly in from out of town to help me make the final decision and they worked with me till

the very last week in making sure everything would be absolutely perfect.

Your Love story

Clint and I met on the first day of MBA orientation at the University of Notre Dame

and it was as close to love at first sight as we could have imagined. After two years

of working hard at school, we moved to Houston together to pursue our careers. On

our third anniversary of dating, we went out to dinner and had decided to do small

gifts to celebrate. Clint handed me a card, I opened it and it read “Congratulations on

your engagement!” When I looked up, half-confused and half-shocked, he was down

on one knee and asked me to marry him. He knows I’m easily embarrassed by grand

public gestures, so the intimacy and privacy of our engagement was just perfect. We

were married 8 months later at the Wedding Pavilion at Walt Disney World in Orlando,

Florida.
