The best man was the Mike\u2019s younger brother. The couple wrote their own touching wedding vows.<\/p>\n<p>Both the bride\u2019s dress and bridesmaid\u2019s dresses came from David\u2019s Bridal. Jennifer\u2019s dress was a strapless lace gown with a champagne silk belt accented with flowers. She wore a lace veil with scalloped edging. The bridal bouquet was filled with assorted white flowers and green berries.\u00a0 Her bridesmaid\u2019s dresses were marine colored with a single strap. To marry the love of his life, Mike was dressed in a dark grey tuxedo with a white shirt and black tie. His groomsmen wore light grey tuxedos with marine blue ties and light grey vests.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Blue-Outdoor-Wedding-24.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-10129\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10129 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Blue-Outdoor-Wedding-24.jpg\" alt=\"Blue-Outdoor-Wedding (24)\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Blue-Outdoor-Wedding-24.jpg 666w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Blue-Outdoor-Wedding-24-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a>\n<p>For the reception, guests were directed to their tables by a seating chart, which included a thank you to friends and family.
