05 Mar In The News: ‘Swipe Right’ Wedding Hosted by the Atlanta Hawks
A Tinder match made in heaven.
In a world where digital and dating go hand in hand, it’s no surprise that more and more couples are finding ‘the one’ online. The Atlanta Hawks and Tinder took this to heart by decided to bring their worlds together and host a ‘Swipe Right Night’ back in 2015. The Hawks said that if any couple matched that night decided to get married one day, they would pay for the wedding. Fast forward to March 3rd, 2018, when Avery Armstrong and Ben McCleskey said their long awaited ‘I Do’s’ with a little help from the Atlanta Hawks and David’s Bridal (and a honeymoon from Tinder)!
We fell in love with Avery and Ben’s story and knew we had to help make their day special. Avery and her bridal party accepted our invitation to come and shop for their head-to-toe looks. While she fell in love with a vintage inspired Melissa Sweet lace gown, her 11 bridesmaids mixed and matched between two different styles and colors (one of our favorite trends!). We also helped to dress Avery’s mom and her flower girl. It was such an honor to be part of their big day!
The newly married couple’s story immediately captured the attention of leading news outlets and publications and with no surprise, was a viral sensation! The Knot received the first photos from their wedding and shared the swoon worthy love story on their website and social channels. (Click through to the article for more!)
