A white-laced flower pinned a short veil in her hair, and she held a bouquet of paper flowers she happened to have made herself. Her bridesmaids all wore black tea-length dresses with red heels, and also held bouquets of bride-made paper flowers.<\/p>\n<p>Dominic donned a three-piece suit, consisting of black trousers and black tailcoat, plus a red vest and necktie. A flower handmade by the bride pinned his lapel.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-13.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10861 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-13-685x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena (13)\" width=\"435\" height=\"651\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-13-685x1024.jpg 685w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-13-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-13-768x1148.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-13.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 435px) 100vw, 435px\" \/><\/a>\n<p>During the ceremony, the story of how they met was told \u2013 and how Devan made the first move \u2013 and guests were asked to stand as a symbol of their support. Marital advice also followed: \u201cWe don\u2019t know what we\u2019ve been missing until it arrives,\u201d and, \u201cMarry someone who makes you smile because it is only a smile that can brighten a dark day.\u201d The bride and groom each gave a rose to their mother as a symbol of their eternal love.<\/p>\n<p>The caterers served a dinner starting with a salad of mixed greens, carrots, pears, tomatoes, vinaigrette, and Parmesan cheese crisps, followed by grilled, chipotle-glazed chicken breast with fresh green beans and potatoes au gratin. The single-tier, black and red wedding cake sat atop a cupcake tower. There were three kinds of cupcakes: vanilla cake with red buttercream frosting and raspberry compote, red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting, and devil\u2019s food cake with chocolate buttercream.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-21.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10863 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-21-686x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena (21)\" width=\"436\" height=\"651\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-21-686x1024.jpg 686w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-21-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-21-768x1147.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Red-Wedding-Villa-Siena-21.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 436px) 100vw, 436px\" \/><\/a>\n<p>During toasts, Devan\u2019s Maid of Honor expressed how the bride is not only her cousin, but her best friend.
