It all started on December 20th, 2008, after a friend introduced us, Greger asked me to drive up 40 minutes to see him after a month or so of talking over the phone; I went, took on the winter storm and never looked back. Flash forward 2 years and 10 months, October 29th, we wake up and Greger is itching to leave the house. Thinking that he just needed a little alone time - he claimed to be helping a friend move a fridge - I knew better. I was at home studying and I move up to the bedroom where I stayed when he got home. He was in the garage "messing around" then came upstairs to ask if I wanted to carve pumpkins (at 1pm!) Now I knew something was up but never would I have guessed that my life was about to change forever.
I finally agree to come downstairs and the table was all set up; Pumpkins strategically places, newspaper down, carving tools ready and as always, I get my camera out the document the moment. I asked him about the funny faces he was making and he claimed, "It was just coming to him", wiping sweat off his brow, making surprised adorable faces - it was out of character for him. If only I had known! About 10 minutes in, I'm cutting the top off my pumpkin making fun of his for looking SO messy and my KNIFE BREAKS!! How does this happen? We get me a new knife and away I go, pull the top off and bam! Inside is a tiny plastic bag with a perfect diamond ring in it, after the confusion faded, I looked over to see Greger on his knee and the words that flowed perfectly out of his mouth then seemed like a blur; now ring through my head as a constant reminder that I will forever be happy, in love, and have my best friend by my side until death do us part.
....and they lived happily ever after.

Hi Best for Bride,
I would just like to thank all the staff at Best For Bride in Etobikoke for helping my daughter and I find what we were looking for. I can't remember the ladies name that was helping us at the time but she was a tall woman and I believe her name began with a D. My daughter bought her wedding dress there and I bought my dress there as well. We were impressed with the wide selection of dresses that you had to chose from. I looked at so many dresses in other places as the mother of the bride and could not find anything that was suitable. My daughter and I exhausted every wedding shop in London Ontario and could not find the perfect dress. We went to a few places in Mississauga and Toronto and could not find the perfect dress until we visited Best For Bride and that is where she and I found the right dresses for us. Attached is a couple of photos of her day and the dresses we bought from you.
Thanks again,
Wayne

Hi Best for Bride,
Thanks for giving me the chance to offer my feedback on my experience at Best for Bride. I have to say it was a great experience. While I can't remember names, everyone there was so helpful and took their time with me so I didn't feel rushed or pressured. I bought my dress off the rack and you had a fantastic selection at really great prices. I had a tough time choosing but in the end, got the perfect dress. Your seamstress was amazing and efficient and the dress fit perfectly after she was done with it. I would definitely recommend Best for Bride to my friends and family. I've attached a picture here. Thanks for all your help!

Hi ladies,
Our wedding was on June 30, 2009 in Cuba, at the Melia Las Dunas. We had a beautiful outdoor ceremony...in the 35C heat. But it's ok, we jumped into the ocean and the pool afterward to cool off :) Thank you for helping me make my dress dreams come true (and saving me almost 600$! ) P.S. The dress is still perfect!
Thank you!
Virginia
