An Exclusive Look Inside Gretchen Clark's Wedding

My Homebodii moment was special because…
"I wore my Kassiah Robe the entire time I was getting ready with my best friends who are like my sisters. They thought the robe was so stunning and I felt like a princess in it!"

- A little bit about me......
"My name is Gretchen and I live in Atlanta, GA with my now *husband* and our 3 dogs! We got engaged after dating for a little over a year and planned our wedding in Highlands, NC in 7 months!"

- Our approach to planning the wedding was…
"We wanted the weekend to be FUN and a big party!! We didn't want to do anything we didn't want to do because it was 'expected' or 'traditional'. We had so much fun planning the weekend and I'm so glad we kept the two of us are the forefront of everything!"

- Looking back on the day we are so glad that we…
"Didn't do a formal sit down dinner, but instead did an extended cocktail hour with heavy horderves stations and passed late night food!"

- The most unexpected part of the day was..
"My puppy, Henry, falling asleep on my veil as we said our vows. It was so special!!!"

My inspiration for my hair and make up…
"Hollywood glam!! I wanted big waves and hollywood glam makeup and that's exactly what I got!"

When I look back on the day now I feel….
"So happy that my husband and I stayed together the entire reception. we held hands everywhere we went and didn't split up! Almost every single guest was on the dance floor with us the entire night!"

- A word of advice to new brides would be…
"Do whatever you want, the wedding is a celebration of the two of you; no one else. Weddings can bring out some craziness in people; my advice is to remember that you're starting a family with your fiance and to let that be a daily reminder."
