Cheena and Scott’s love story began in the most modern of ways—on Hinge. Remarkably, Scott was Cheena's very first Hinge date, and their initial meeting was a memorable one, filled with visits to several restaurants for tacos and beers.
When it came time to plan their wedding, Cheena and Scott knew they wanted an outdoor celebration. After visiting a few local venues that didn't quite meet their expectations, they decided to explore Keating Farm on the island. Scott's familiarity with Victoria from his younger days made this destination even more special. The moment they arrived, they knew it was the perfect spot; it was everything they had been dreaming of with the scenic open fields providing the perfect backdrop for their new beginning.
The ceremony was Cheena's favorite part of the day. It was a profoundly emotional experience, not just because she was marrying Scott, but also because of the overwhelming love and support from their family and friends who had gathered to celebrate their union.
For her wedding dress, Cheena chose our Flora gown by Newhite. The stunning liquid satin dress features a structured strapless top that flows effortlessly into beautiful hand draping down the bodice and skirt. Her look was perfectly complemented by the Rituals Ceremonials slip veil as well as our Cruz earrings by Amber Sceats. Cheena was the embodiment of fashion-forward with an understated elegance that paired perfectly with the rustic timelessness of the venue.
Cheena’s advice for brides searching for their gown:
“Try on a style that you didn't think you'd like, because I thought I wouldn't like the strapless dress and ended up getting that for mine! And once you find THE dress, stop searching and just commit!”
