After my first visit to Abu Dhabi (you can read that post here), we concluded our trip with a quick Dubai getaway. We only stayed here for a couple of days and made the most our of our visit.

Not only are we in the midst of a global pandemic, we are also experiencing a revolutionary and impactful Black Lives Matter movement. 2020 has presented some challenges for Brides. Now more than ever, Brides have to remain patient, optimistic, and flexible during the unknown. Many brides have had their weddings cancelled, postponed, or opted for a smaller ceremony with close family and friends. I am filled with joy when I see Brides…
