When asked, "What was it like choosing your wedding dress? Got nervous?". Julia revealed that after choosing her dress from a popular boutique in NEW YORK, Pronovias, she had serious doubts.

"The day after I chose it I actually got super cold feet and for weeks wondered if I had made the right decision! It wasn’t until my first fitting that I was convinced I had picked the one," she said.
