After just three weeks of dating Norvil was so sure he’d found the one in Ayesha that he told her didn’t want to see anyone else.
Ayesha bought her dream dress five months after Norvil popped the question. Since the pair were engaged for six years she says she would periodically sneak and try it on when he wasn’t home.
Ayesha was all smiles on her wedding day because everything went her way. “No bloopers,” she says. “Everything was on point.”
Ayesha’s bridal style was classic perfection. We love her scoop neck gown and side swept hairstyle.
One of the bride’s favorite wedding moments was when their son noticed his father putting the ring on his mom’s finger. “It was the only time he took notice to what was going on,” Ayesha says. “It was priceless.”
Ayesha flashes a big smile to match her big day. Everything was exactly the way she always dreamed it would be.
Another wedding moment Ayesha will cherish forever? “Having my daddy walk me down the aisle,” she tells us.

Ayesha and Norvil have been inseparable since the day they met. They chose a wedding location just fifteen minutes from their California home to ensure it would always have sentimental value.
Ayesha searched and searched for the perfect dead palms to use to make the broom for their jumping the broom ritual.
“I loved this idea,” says Ayesha, who originally wanted to release white doves. “It was so easy, fun, and beautiful.”I spent months searching on the internet before I came across the butterflies and I think it was the perfect touch for our ceremony."
