Janith and her husband Joe got married in Haubstadt, Indiana.During that time, their wedding was announced in the local newspaper.There, a lot of people were blown away by how gorgeous her dress was.

“For her wedding, the bride chose a floor-length gown of imported Chantilly lace and nylon tulle over satin, fastened down the back with tiny covered buttons. The fitted lace bodice was designed with Sabrina neckline and embroidered in pearlized sequins. The long sleeves tapered over the wrists.”
