Bridal Bliss: Tiffany and Steven's New Rochelle Wedding Photos

Childhood neighbors Tiffany and Steven never actually met until a mutual friend introduced them at a party when they were all grown up. Their connection was instant and now they’re living happily ever after. Share their love!

Dream Big

“We viewed over 10 locations and were very impressed with the food spread at The Surf Club on the Sound,” says Tiffany. “Also, it happened to be the same country club of my high school prom. I told myself one day I want to get married in a place like this, and I did.”

Inseparable

“I thought my true love was out there somewhere but wasn’t sure if he would ever find me,” says Tiffany. “And then one day he did, right across a crowded room. I felt like we were the only two there. We have been inseparable ever since.”

No Strings Attached

“What I love most about Steven is his ability to love unconditionally with no strings attached,” says Tiffany.

Finally!

“Looking into her eyes at the altar I was taken back by her beauty,” says Steven. “Honestly, I was happy that the day had finally arrived.”

Teamwork Time

Although the bride did most of the wedding planning herself, she did enlist a little help from a coordinator, Designing Women LTD, when the time came to pull all of her beautiful details together.

Tiffany and Steven exchanged traditional vows before their closest friends and family and there was not a dry eye in the house.
