Wedding Tree, La Crosse, WI: Bride of the Year 2012

Bride of the Year 2012

Check out Jessica! She was our 2010 Bride of the Year!

2010 marked the beginning of our first annual Bride of the Year Contest! It was amazing and so much fun! Each of our gorgeous contestants sent in photos, comments, and details from their big day to vie for a chance to become our Bride of the Year, be featured in our Facebook profile picture, AND win a fabulous $100 date night gift certificate to The Waterfront here in La Crosse!

Kim was such a deserving bride, look at what she had to say:

“I would just like to say what being part of this contest means to me. It gives me a chance to let Brides know you can stay true to yourselves. I was an older first time bride that wanted the same things younger brides want. I was told at one bridal shop I was too old to wear white, another told me I would have to have a red dress made, and yet another talk to my 17 year old soon-to-be stepdaughter like she was the bride. The girls at the Wedding Tree were so helpful and never let me feel I didn’t deserve to have the day I always dreamed of. This contest to me isn’t about winning, all the brides deserve to win. To me, it’s about letting other older first time brides that you can have the fairy tale. It’s about letting brides know they don’t have to wear what society thinks they should wear. It’s about having your special day the way you want it. I am VERY thankful for the staff at the Wedding Tree for not making me feel like the other stores did. ” -Kim
