PEN·LIV Real Bride: Katherine & Vincent

Romantic dreams and gothic themes for the wedding of Katherine and Vincent

The Love Story:

"Vincent and I met and navigated dating during Covid (shoutout to Tinder haha). From the moment we met, I think we both knew that we had something special between us. We are both very unique and somehow all of our interests lined up. Dating during Covid was difficult, but I think it made the build-up to our relationship stronger. After a year and a half of dating, Vincent asked me to marry him. Two years later, we got married on a Friday the 13th. It was the most amazing day. Any time I think of it, I tear up. We were glued to each other since day one."

The Dress:

"As someone who lives in all black, I truly thought I was going to be in black on my wedding day. I was surprised and overwhelmed with emotion when I tried on a full lace, ivory dress that I fell in LOVE with. It was everything that I had dreamed of and fit my aesthetic perfectly. It didn't need to be black, my dress truly felt like ME in every aspect."

Most Memorable Moment:

Vincent (Groom) - "My favorite memory was dancing together before anyone had arrived to our reception. We got to practice our wedding dance in the ballroom, and it felt so personal and romantic. I will cherish that memory forever."
 
Katherine (Bride) - "There was a moment when everyone was eating dinner and a song came on, I grabbed Vincent's hand and pulled him to dance. It was just him and I alone dancing together. I remember feeling like I could melt away in that moment forever and be happy. It set in that he was my husband and I felt like the luckiest person. I think about that moment often now."
