“He called rings ‘knuckles’, so we called
him ‘Knuckle Bear,’” Bailey says.
When choosing vendors, Bailey
wanted to stay local to her small town.
“I wanted to be traditional, so I knew
I wanted to get married in my church,”
says Bailey. “That was something that I
had set since when I was a little girl.”
For her dress, Bailey went in saying
she wanted a Cinderella type, but she was
encouraged to try on others.
“[The bridal gown retailer] said
usually when you come in and say that
is what you want, it isn’t what you really
want so, I was open to try on anything,”
says Bailey.
After trying on the few dresses she
knew she did not want, Bailey finally tried
on the Cinderella dress she saw when she
first walked in, and it was the one.
“I went out to my mother and mother-
in-law and they just knew that that was
the one,” she says.
Bailey chose the biggest expo center to
have their reception and fit the 500 guests
and more than 800 people who were fed.
The Burleson County Expo was perfect
after decorating it how she wanted.
The couple chose Texas Unlimited
Band, one of their favorite bands, to be
their entertainment for their special day.
“Oh, it was beyond what I thought
it was going to be; it was the best day
ever,” says Bailey. “I know everyone says
that, but it really was. Everything just
seemed magical to me. It was our type of
wedding; it was just perfect.” i
