Amanda and Shae met online. Their conversations back and forth lasted for six months before Shae began visiting Amanda in Canada. They married July 31, 2014.

A harp player ushered guests to their seats and signaled the beginning of the ceremony. During the ceremony the officiant shared a special story about his grandmother and grandfather and their love. Then Amanda and Shae exchanged personal vows they had written. The bride teared up as she read hers.

For her wedding celebration, Amanda chose a La Sposa gown with a very Audrey Hepburnesque feel. The dress had sheer sleevelets with a fitted bodice and diamond belt. The full skirt was finished with embroidered detail. The bride’s bouquet of blush and yellow roses and white calla lilies were finished with diamond pins in the center. Amanda wore a diamond tiara. Her bridesmaids were dressed in all different styles of dresses in black, white and red. Shae wore a traditional black tuxedo with black bowtie.

The couple had an indoor wedding ceremony in the Chianciano room. The floor was lined with candles and blush pink rose petals. A bouquet of white flowers adorned the altar.

After the wedding, the couple joined together for their first dance to What a Wonderful World.
