“I believe firmly that our vision, hearts’<br />
desire and talents all come together<br />
to form our purpose.”<br />
“I prayed and prayed about it and then decided, why not?” she<br />
asks herself. “Knowing nothing at all, I bought a bridal shop in a tiny<br />
town with a great reputation and a gravel parking lot.”<br />
In July 2010, Emily moved the shop to Leawood and has<br />
watched her business expand in more ways than she ever dreamed<br />
they could. “My faith played a big role in the leap to Leawood,” she<br />
admits. “But just like every step I took, I took by faith and the Lord<br />
always came through, reminding me time after time that this move<br />
was one that He was blessing. When I tell people how I ended up<br />
where I have, I tell them that it was entirely the Lord. I listened, followed<br />
my intuition and waited for Him to move. Then I went along<br />
for the ride.”<br />
Today, in Emily’s chic and upscale shop, pink hues and black<br />
and ivory accents enhance the warm wood flooring. Floor to ceiling<br />
mirrors, comfortable couches and comfy sitting areas are complemented<br />
by five large private dressing areas. And most importantly, the<br />
warm and engaging personality of Emily Brown, wanting to see every<br />
girl’s dream turn into reality for that perfect day.<br />
In August 2008, Emily married the love of her life, Jovan Brown.<br />
She says he is her biggest fan and has been her life support the past<br />
four years. They have an 18-month-old son named Legend and a new<br />
addition born in January, a son named Roman.<br />
“It’s been a whirlwind ride, these past years, with a new marriage,<br />
moving businesses and homes and having babies, but an experience<br />
that has taught me so much about myself and caused me to grow in<br />
all sorts of ways,” Emily says. “I believe firmly that our vision, hearts’<br />
desire and talents all come together to form our purpose. I found my<br />
purpose in a small-town bridal shop and I can’t wait to see where the<br />
Lord takes me next!” ■<br />
