Hi! I’m Sophie and I’m not the typical bride. Our wedding theme is Victorian Gothic, I’ll be wearing a black wedding gown and we will be getting married at the historic (and haunted) Hawthorne Hotel in Salem, Massachusetts. Frank and I have two Australian Shepherds, and while we aren’t house hunting and wedding planning, we love attending metal shows and traveling.
