True Bride Valerie & Tavon

Experience the magic of a romantic wedding in Grand Rapids, MI as this True Bride and her True Love say, “I do.” Surrounded by friends and family, the couple tied the knot at the enchanting venue, The 1530

After her visit to True Society – Grand Rapids, Valerie chose a stunning Stella York wedding gown for her special day. With intricate lace patterns on the bodice and a dreamy, layered tulle skirt, the bride looked absolutely exquisite from head to toe.

With the help of the talented photographer Aspen Kate, the essence of the celebration was beautifully preserved. Scroll down to relive the magic for yourself. 

TELL US ABOUT YOUR LOVE STORY  

Tavon and I met way back in 2015! We played basketball together and have been together ever since! In December of 2019, we got engaged right before COVID-19 hit, and we found out we were expecting right after! Fast forward to 2022, and we are happily married! 

DESCRIBE YOUR BRIDAL STYLE. TELL US ABOUT YOUR DRESS-SHOPPING EXPERIENCE.  

I wanted to feel like a princess! Just naturally beautiful, nothing taking away from me or my dress! I wore my grandma’s pearls and earrings that just tied it all together. 

I absolutely loved my shopping experience at True Society – Grand Rapids! It was my first day of dress shopping, and I found my dream wedding dress. By the 6th dress I tried on, I knew I had found the Stella York wedding dress for me. I just felt like a princess! 

IN YOUR OWN WORDS, TELL US MORE ABOUT YOUR WEDDING. 

Our wedding was a beautiful indoor event! We had pictures from the beginning of our relationship to now throughout the venue. We had personalized photo frames for everyone to sign and confetti butterflies at every table as well! 

Cheers to Valerie & Tavon!
