A serendipitous meeting at a mutual friend’s going away party, followed by copious amounts of Russian vodka and a few robot dance moves, turned out to be the start of a fairy-tale romance between lovebirds Teghan & George. Unbeknownst to George, rocking up to the party not knowing a soul besides the host may have been one of his best decisions yet. Across the room, a gorgeous girl with piercing blue eyes wearing a white flowy dress caught his attention. His natural charisma and infectious smile kicked into play, making it easy for George to seamlessly join her conversation and incidentally be introduced to the woman of his dreams.
As the night went on, George struck up conversation and instantly connected with Teghan’s brother, Matt. George concluded this would work in his favour, surely a girl with a brother has an intricate understanding of how men operate, right? Teghan sharing such a strong bond with her brother was reminiscent of the close relationship he had with his own sister, just another thing they have in common. Saying this, George recounts if Matt wasn’t there that night, he would have been more than obliging to accept a tipsy smooch from Teghan as she said her goodbyes. Instead, this charming prince respectfully went in for a peck on the cheek, as Cinderella squirrelled off to Hungry Jacks for a Whopper with extra cheese.
Fast forward 6 years (and one gorgeous son) later, George was once again laying eyes on this stunning bombshell in the white dress. This time, the soon-to-be Mrs Baramily is wearing the ultra glamourous Capri Gown from Mode & Affaire’s very own Bridal Gown Collection. The structured bodice of the volumous Capri Gown fitting our bride like glove and delivering the perfect hourglass figure. You could almost assume Teghan had been poured into her dress the way it accentuates her flirtatious feminine silhouette.
Teghan fell in love with the Capri Gown after originally visiting the Mode & Affaire Studio to try on a different gown. The one modification she requested was to make the thigh split higher, much higher! It paid off big time, with her chosen “something blue” being her fabulous powder blue stiletto heels discernibly peeking through the split as Teghan sashayed down the aisle showing off her enviable toned legs.
O’brien Originals captured the magic of the Big Day, both bride and groom along with their nearest and dearest could not keep the smiles off their faces. We have loved every moment of our bridal journey with gorgeous Teghan. Her contagious optimism and boundless effervescence make it easy to see how Teghan captured George’s attention and held onto his heart. Initially meeting on the same date as her mother sadly passed away years before, Teghan believes this extraordinary man was sent to her by her Mum as a gift she will cherish for ever. With the same butterflies and giddy excitement from the first night they met, these young lovers look forward to everything the future holds, perhaps just with slightly less straight vodka.
The moral of this beautiful love story, it always pays off to follow up with a cheeky Facebook message the night after meeting a gorgeous stranger. And secondly, when it comes to a thigh split the higher the better!
