Apparently the phrase “Say Yes to the Dress” will be an experience any bride-to-be will always find joy in. Olympic-winning gymnast Simone Biles took to Instagram to share pictures of the mysterious moment for when she said “yes” to her wedding gown, People reports.
The 24-year-old athlete can be seen holding a picture frame with the phrase “I said yes to the dress at Galia Lahav LA.” With a grass wall as the background showcasing the boutique’s name in the picture and its Los Angeles location, Biles was all smiles as she prepares for the big day. She also hinted that multiple dresses will be on deck for the day of her nuptials when she captioned, “[Said] yes to the dress(es).”
The luxury gown retailer also uploaded their own pictures of Biles from the front and to the side modeling sample dresses. However, those were not the actual ones she chose, according to Today.
Galia Lahav captioned, “It’s official: [Biles] said ‘YES to the dress(es)! We are over the moon & so honored about gold medalist & mega athlete @simonebiles becoming a GL Bride! (Not the chosen ones, but a sneak peek of Simone at her fitting ) #GaliaLahav #GLBride.”
Following her post, Biles took to her Instagram story and curated a Q&A session with her fans about the two dresses she purchased. “The first dress I tried on was one of the ones I picked,” Biles wrote. “The second one was about 8 in, [I’m] guessing.”
When another fan inquired about the details for her wedding, the gymnast revealed that her wedding will take place next year. Another interesting tidbit Biles shared was how she knew that her fiancé , Houston Texans safety Jonathan Owens was the one after having her “aha” moment.
“So fun fact, the day after I met Jonathan, I told my best friend [sic] Rachael that I was going to marry him… I just knew,” she detailed. Owens, 26, proposed to Biles on Valentine’s Day after nearly two years of dating that blossomed during the pandemic lockdown.
