#ADOREREALRIDE | BRIANNA & RICHIE

#AdoreRealBride Brianna and her husband Richie tied the knot on June 16th, 2023. The Guingriches are the sweetest couple and are obsessed with all things Disney - from their proposal to hidden touches on their big day. Brianna shared all of the details with us, scroll on to hear more!

What was your styling inspiration or wedding day vibe you were going for? What inspired you to choose this?

Classic, Romantic, Timeless (I absolutely love Disney - my husband does as well, so that played a part, but also just something we can look back at and still love because it will always be classy and timeless)

Tell us about a special memory from your wedding day, something that will always stand out in your mind ❤️

We had many fun surprises planned throughout the day that made it fun to surprise not only our guests, but family and even the wedding party (and even the groom)! We surprised everyone with my brother as our "Flower Bro" and he had a fun dance moment down the aisle before I came, which was so fun and definitely lightened the mood. I also surprised everyone with a part traditional & part-silly/fun dad-daughter dance (not even the groom knew). We also kept most of our music a surprise to everyone which was sweet and made some moments even more raw and touching. Also, I absolutely loved getting ready with my girls in the moment, just finally feeling relaxed and excited. I woke up and had 0 nerves throughout the whole day! It was absolutely everything I could ever want.

What do you admire most about your new spouse?

He is so kind, caring, and patient. He truly supports me and wants me to be happy in every aspect of life. He will do anything to make sure I'm okay and that I'm my happiest self.

Is there anything else you want people to know about your love story? A fun proposal, something crazy that happened on your wedding day, a sentimental memory or even wedding planning tips for future brides!

He actually proposed to me at Disney World. I was down there for my college program and he came down with my best friend to have a little trip/help me move back home. After my car engine overheated on the way to pick them up and almost got soaked in mini-golf...they finally got me to the spot where he wanted to propose - in front of a Tangled mosaic wall mural at the Riviera Resort! It was so special because there was no one there so we got to have a private moment (which is so rare at Disney)!

Also a tip for future brides - definitely delegate when you can, hire a coordinator (at least for the day of/month of) to help you with all those last minute details! AND most importantly let everything be as it may on the day of, just soak everything in, don't worry if something goes awry because it will be a special and beautiful day regardless. Also a fun tip, do private first looks with family members (brothers, sisters, parents - whoever) or even friends because I loved having those more intimate moments! Also if you're toying with having traditional vows or your own, do both! Do a first look with private vows and then traditional during the ceremony! We loved that and highly HIGHLY recommend it!

What was your experience like with Adore Bridal?

I absolutely loved my experience. Kylie was AMAZING and helped me find the PERFECT dress. It was one I thought I wouldn't want and it was the very last dress I tried on. She had been to both of my venues for my wedding, so it was so helpful to have her opinion and that she could see the vision too. They were so caring and attentive and went the extra mile to make sure I had everything I wanted or needed (and as a chronic overthinker, that was so helpful)!
