Nicole & Jared ~ April 30, 2016

blush-gold-wedding-villa-siena-30Nicole and Jared met through mutual friends, and were married on Saturday, April 30, 2016.

Nicole wore a Stella York wedding gown from Uptown Bridal & Boutique, complete with a semi-sweetheart neckline, beaded belt, and lengthy veil and train. She also donned two strands of elegant pearls, and held a posy bouquet of pink and white roses and hydrangeas. Her five bridesmaids held the same arrangement in their bouquets, and wore blush, floor-length sheath gowns with bejeweled necklaces.

Jared modeled a blue suit with a white dress shirt and pocket square, blue necktie, and silver tie clip. His five groomsmen donned the same outfit, only with blush pocket squares. Each lapel in the groom’s party was adorned with a small arrangement of succulents.

The indoor ceremony started with the officiant telling the story of how Nicole and Jared met. A true, pure love is how Nicole described Jared’s love for her. She loves his work ethic, and saying yes was the easiest decision she has made. He loves Nicole’s supportiveness, and can’t wait to offer that support to her.

Dinner was held outside, and started with mixed greens and goat cheese, followed by sliced beef tenderloin and chicken Galliano, all with Yukon gold potatoes and quinoa with squash. The four-tiered, raspberry and chocolate wedding cake was blush, champagne, and white in color, and adorned in rose-detailed icing and gold designs.

During toasts, the Best Man gave his love to Jared and Nicole, shared memories, and talked about how far Jared has come. The Maid of Honor thanked everyone for coming, and welcomed Jared to the family. The Father of the Bride said his daughters have taught him as much as he’s taught them, and talked about when he and Jared first met.  The new couple also thanked their guests and the wedding party.

Nicole and Jared’s first dance was to “Work Song” by Hozier. The Father/Daughter Dance was to “I Just Called To Say I Love You” by Stevie Wonder, and the Mother/Son Dance was to Amanda Faith’s “Child of Mine.”
