The Bride Wore Her Dream Berta Gown To This European Manor-Themed

By A Mystery Man Writer

Mursal and Luis met at a mutual friend’s party, where Luis spent the entire evening talking to Mursal. “He was so sweet and charming!” she recalls. She gave him her phone number, and the two have spoken every day since! After graduating from university, the couple toured Italy together. Luis had planned to propose while the two took a gondola ride in Venice, but fearing nausea Mursal thought better of setting out on the water. Instead, the proposal took place in Florence in the center of the Piazza Della Repubblica. While a nearby couple took Mursal and Luis’ photo, Luis got down on one knee and onlookers clapped in celebration! Petals & Pearls planned and designed the couple’s intimate wedding held on August 21, 2021, at a private mansion in Toronto, Ontario. The event was planned in less than two months. “Luis and I waited for a year for the pandemic to pass, but it didn’t and we wanted to start our lives together,” shares Mursal. “We decided to go out on a whim and just plan something small and intimate. However, I love decor, design and going all out!” Eventually, the wedding came together beautifully and was designed around a “European manor” theme as a nod to Mursal and Luis’ engagement in Italy.
