\"\"<\/a>Elizabeth and Chris were married on Friday, November 11, 2016. They met in high school, and reconnected through Facebook years later.<\/p>\n

Elizabeth donned a lace-textured wedding gown with a sweetheart neckline and thin straps. She wore a lengthy veil, and stood atop bedazzled black sling-back heels. She held a rounded bouquet of magenta-colored dendrobium orchids, which matched the lace-textured sheath gowns of her six bridesmaids. The bridesmaids held bouquets of white dendrobium orchids.<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

Chris wore a blue suit with a white dress shirt, white necktie, and white pocket square \u2013 all nicely matched with brown leather shoes. His six groomsmen wore purple and blue patterned neckties and matching pocket squares.<\/p>\n

The \u201cunplugged\u201d wedding ceremony was held at the end of a white carpet lined with red rose petals. The groom\u2019s sister opened the ceremony with a reading from the Bible. A ribbon was also looped around the bride and groom to symbolize their unity as one forever.<\/p>\n

Dinner was catered by Babbo\u2019s, which included napa salad, pasta primavera, fresh bread, and more. The three-tiered wedding cake had a bottom layer covered in sprinkles, a middle layer with a white fondant bow, and a top tier with the date in gold roman numerals. A cake topper read, \u201cChris and Elizabeth.\u201d During the reception, guests were asked to use the hashtag #takemetoshelleytown when sharing on social media \u2013 which was also monogrammed on magenta cocktails napkins throughout the reception.<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

For toasts, the Father of the Bride thanked the guests for coming, and told the groom how special he was and welcomed him to the family. He also read a letter the bride gave him the morning of the wedding. The Father of the Groom thanked the minister, and told a story about teaching Chris how persistence can get you everything, even the girl of your dreams. A bridesmaid talked about how the bride is an amazing example, and how the groom became \u201cOne of the girls.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elizabeth and Chris\u2019 First Dance was to Josh Heinrichs\u2019 “New Love.” The Father\/Daughter Dance was to \u201cDaddy Dance With Me\u201d by Krysta Keith, and the Mother\/Son Dance was to \u201cSolamente Una Vez.\u201d<\/p>\n

Congratulations to the new couple, and we hope Elizabeth and Chris have an amazing time in Puerto Rico for their honeymoon<\/p>\n
