"Something that was really important to me on my wedding day was making sure I looked like myself." — Alex Cooper

SKIMS Wedding Shop is coming at the perfect moment, and to be a part of the launch ahead of my own wedding makes it such an extra fun celebration.

We chose to have a very small wedding composed of our closest friends and family. It was so special having all of our favourite people in one room together.

At the beginning when we started to discuss wedding planning, I truly had no idea what I wanted to wear. There were no vision boards I had made from when I was younger nor did I create one once Matt got down on one knee and I said yes.

At the beginning of wedding planning, I really rejected the concept of being walked down by a man to be handed to another man. Although to clarify I have such an incredible relationship with my father and both of my parents - it wasn't about that. To me personally, I just never loved that tradition. It's old and antiquated.
