Storybook Endings: Real Fairytale Endings For Our Storybook Brides
Hey, Storybook fam! It’s been a bit since we’ve shared a new blog, but we’re back today with Jessica and Dustin’s love story. From a surprise golf course proposal to saying “Yes!” to the perfect dress at A Storybook Ending, their journey is truly one for the books. Keep reading to dive into a tale of love, laughter, and a fairway “Yes!”
In the midst of a hazy day courtesy of distant Canadian wildfires, Dustin transformed an ordinary afternoon at Sunrise Golf Course into a moment Jessica would never forget. Dustin and his friends were golfing on the course while Jessica was bartending at the clubhouse. When she got a call from their group saying they needed a new golf cart, Jessica quickly grabbed a friend and headed off to meet them (which happened to be at her favorite hole). It was there that Dustin, surrounded by their friends, awaited her with a ring. At first, Jessica thought Dustin just wanted to show her the haze in the sky, but once she heard a few cue words and saw a friend filming, she realized what was really going on. As Dustin dropped to one knee, Jessica happily gave the biggest, most excited “YES!”
As the wedding planning commenced, finding the perfect dress was paramount. Jessica’s visit to A Storybook Ending was a family affair, as she was accompanied by her mother, future mother-in-law, grandmother, sister, and best friend. Her initial bridal vision evolved when she tried on a gown that her group and consultant, Christi, knew was “the one.” Throughout the appointment, Jessica was searching for a gown that would go perfectly with one specific accessory, and this particular dress was a flawless match. The gown drew unanimous approval from her group and also from a special bridesmaid who couldn’t make it in-person but joined via FaceTime. The group shared tears of joy and knew Jessica had found her dream gown.
In September of 2024, Jessica and Dustin’s story came full circle as they chose Sunrise Golf Course as the outdoor venue for both their ceremony and reception. Despite the wind claiming some decorations and a speaker malfunctioning when it was time for Jessica to walk down the aisle with her dad, it was a perfect day of love and laughter. So many friends came from near and far to celebrate the couple, and they all had a blast as they danced the night away.
Reflecting on her journey to “I Do,” Jessica praises Storybook Ending for their instrumental role in making her bridal experience unforgettable. “They [Storybook] were so fabulous and helpful! They hyped me up in all the right ways and matched me with my perfect dress!”
