According to "Today," Madeline Stuart, 19, of Brisbane, Australia, recently posed in three different Ava Laurenne wedding gowns for a shoot at Virginia's Rixey Manor with photographer Sarah Houston. 

Rixey Manor owner Isadora Martin-Dye, who organized the shoot with her husband, told "Today" that "being a bride is a life experience that every woman should be able to see herself doing."
