Congratulations to Aly and Zach on their gorgeous wedding! After meeting at Mizzou, these two said “I Do” in the perfect ceremony this fall. We are excited to share their love story and stunning wedding photos with you!
“I bought the first dress I tried on! I had been to one other store that left me flustered. I described to the best of my ability what I was picturing and she pulled that one and it was the one I bought.”- Aly
Love Story
Aly and Zach met in college at Mizzou. They were both Microbiology TAs prior to both being in nursing school. They now live in St. Louis and have gone through grad school together!
Proposal
It was a warm December day, in 2019. Aly and Zach got engaged at the Gazebo at the Muny. After a nice dinner, Zach surprised Aly with an engagement party with friends and family. They had nearly a two-year engagement (not because of COVID, we wanted to get through grad school first)!
Wedding
Aly’s dress, Drew, was by designer L’Amour by Calla Blanche. This gown has a detailed lace bodice with a fairytale-like chiffon skirt. The v-neckline and open back perfectly complement one another. Aly looked absolutely stunning!
Aly and Zach’s wedding theme focused on neutral colors with black and white, greenery, and candles. Their wedding was one big party with plenty of snacks, candy, and cookies including Ted Drewes for dessert!
