A Lifetime of Love<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sarah and Josh got married this past March here\nat the Villa, but their love story started long before. The couple actually met\nin the second grade, and their longtime friendship blossomed into love during\ntheir high school years. So when they finally tied the knot, it was a cause for\ncelebration \u2014 and we certainly felt the love when their guests arrived for the\nbig day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wedding took place in our Piazza Toscana,\namid white and peach roses and the sounds of a string quartet. The bridal party\nlooked lovely: the bridesmaids wore lacy, French blue dresses, while the\ngroomsmen wore grey matching blue ties. Josh dressed up his suit with a white\nrose boutonniere \u2014 which matched the rose appliques on Sarah\u2019s stunning\nmermaid-style gown. (Personally, we were particularly taken with her veil,\nwhich was attached to her gown at the shoulders like a superhero cape!) The\ncouple exchanged vows and rings while the officiant reminded us all how special\nthis relationship really was: for Sarah and Josh, this was just the next step\nin a long love story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the ceremony, guests headed inside for the\nreception. In the cocktail area, guests could write sweet messages and\nwell-wishes for the couple and place them in an empty bottle, giving Sarah and\nJosh a \u201cmessage in a bottle\u201d to take home with them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sarah and Josh kicked off the reception with\ntheir first dance to Jack Johnson\u2019s \u201cBetter Together.\u201d Then, guests enjoyed a\ndelicious meal of Caesar salad, twice baked potatoes, angel hair pasta in basil\npesto sauce, caprese chicken stuffed with mozzarella, and flat iron steak with\nchimichurri sauce. YUM! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout the night, family, the bridal party, and guests shared sweet stories of Sarah and Josh and their incredible romance. As far as we\u2019re concerned, these lovely young sweethearts have a wonderful lifetime of love ahead of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
