When I mentioned to Luke that I would love to open my own bridal boutique one day, we thought, why not just do it now! So here we are. We're extremely excited to open our doors to welcome all of our lovely new brides and make all of their wedding dress dreams come true.

Speeches given only by men (36%), a choreographed first dance (34%) and the formal receiving line (30%) are among the wedding traditions that couples are keenest to ditch, a new study reveals.
