My Derrick Marie Dream - Elsie Hernandez - 11.16.24
What was your favorite feature?
As soon as I saw this dress on the MS website I knew it was meant for me! I purchased it without actually being able to see it in person or try it on.
I did not want to wear white or an ordinary color, I wanted everything about my wedding day to be different and this dress really set the standard for that.
The color and texture of the dress was so unique and out of the box. I had a night time ceremony and the shine/shimmer the dress had from the candle lights was incredible.
How did you feel in your wedding dress?
I felt like an absolute queen and bombshell at the same time. It was giving Bridgerton but in 2024 farm/garden party chic.
Our photographers kept saying that of all the weddings they have done, this was by far the most gorgeous dress they had ever seen and were so excited to shoot it.
Our guests also could not stop talking about how perfect it was for my personality and our venue.
Tell us a little about your wedding day.
We had an outdoor Fall wedding at Bansen Farms in NC. We wanted our guests to walk in and feel transported, special, and in awe throughout the entire day.
A longer cocktail hour to kicked things off with baby goats, and once the sun went down, we held our ceremony under market lights and candles in the woods.
Our reception was 2 long rows of farmhouse tables covered in candles and the most gorgeous bright citrus floral arrangements. No detail was overlooked by our coordinator or photographer.
