Asked to describe her wedding style, Sammi unapologetically replied, “When I first met with Rachel (Bride & Blossom’s Founder), I described my aesthetic, in a nutshell, as being a little bit over-the-top.” Well, if there is a time to be GO BIG, it’s when you are getting married. From her gown to décor, Sammi’s personal style translated into a day that radiated high glamour from start to finish.

The weddings we remember most are those that are a true expression of a couple’s love and personality.

Here, Allison talks about her ‘say yes to the dress’ moment and personals.
