Classic Brides of France Mermaid-Style Wedding Dress

Marissa and Joseph were high school sweethearts. They met in their hometown of Bemidji, Minnesota, and began dating the summer before their sophomore year of high school. When choosing a date for their wedding, the couple thought back to their first date, on August 8, 2007, and knew there couldn’t be a day more perfect to say their “I dos.” “Eight seems to be a lucky number for us, since we were engaged for just eight months as well,” Marissa says.
