What does Thanksgiving mean to you? To us it means being thankful for you - each and every #JAbride, past and present. We are grateful that you allow us to be a part of one of the most important days of your life, especially when we know you have many different options. And we are honored when you share your beautiful wedding photos with us and what it meant to you to be a #JAbride. This year we are especially thankful for the below brides for opening their hearts to their husbands and choosing to have us be a part of their Thanksgiving Day. 

Kirsty & Kyle

Kirsty said "I do" to the man of her dreams in Style 8799, a beautiful chiffon ball gown with a beaded portrait neckline. She submitted her favorite photo from her wedding in June. This year, Kirsty is thankful for her husband and her Justin Alexander wedding dress. "I am thankful for my new husband and our perfect day. I absolutely loved my amazing dress! I felt like a princess and sparkled all day in the Cyprus sun." 

Erika & Richard

#JAbride Erika walked down the aisle in Style 8909, a fit and flare gown with an illusion Sabrina neckline, illusion back, and allover lace appliqués. To her handsome husband Richard, Erika says, "I am thankful for your ever dying love for me and your endless patience in our strong-growing relationship." And we are sure that Richard is equally as thankful for Erika's love.

Jessica & Rob

"I am thankful for this man. My husband. Devoted father to our son. For loving me unconditionally. Always and forever... Also thankful to have found my dream wedding dress. It was everything I could've dreamed of." Jessica wore Style 8928 on her wedding day. This crepe straight gown embodies Old Hollywood glamour with its deep V-neckline, cap sleeves and geometric keyhole back. Jessica was a vision on her wedding day.

Janie & Landon

Janie was married wearing Style 8799.  We love and are thankful for her unique styling that she created with the modified off the shoulder neckline. Janie is thankful too! "I am thankful to be able to grow old with my forever fishing partner."

Melanie & Mirc

Melanie looked extraordinary at her wedding. She wore Style 9847 a ball gown with an opulent beaded illusion bodice (which she modified), illusion V-back, and a dreamy layered skirt. Melanie's love for her husband is also extraordinary. "I am thankful to have this strong and lovely solder by my side for nine years! And I'm thankful to get this guy healthy at home every weekend." We are thankful for your husband's service! 

Katie & Steven

Katie strutted down the aisle in Style 9862, a strapless sweetheart wedding dress with a trendy detachable cathedral length skirt. The straight silhouette of this gown was perfect to dance the night away in. This year Katie is grateful that "43 of my closest family and friends traveled over 5,000 miles to celebrate my big day in Mexico!! I felt absolutely amazing in my gorgeous Justin Alexander Signature wedding dress." 

It's this time of year in particular that we realize how much we have to be thankful for, but especially for the love and lives our brides share with us. If you were a #JAbride, share your photos and story with us in our real bride gallery.

Happy Thanksgiving, from our family to yours.
