The bridesmaids\nwore long, glittering rose gold gowns with cute cap sleeves, while Nate and his\ngroomsmen cleaned up nicely in grey suits with blush pink ties. But of course,\neveryone&#8217;s eyes were on Kate, who stunned the guests (and the groom) in her\nbeautiful Martina Liana gown with a dropped waist and mermaid-style skirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was hard not to feel the love in the air\nduring the ceremony, as the couple added personal touches to show how much they\ncared for each other and their families. A mutual friend officiated the affair\nand a grandmother gave a special reading, and the whole event was accompanied\nby a string quartet. During the ceremony the couple was asked to find one word\nto describe each other; their answers (Kate said &#8220;devoted,&#8221; Nate said\n&#8220;compassionate&#8221;) proved just how sincere and sweet their relationship\nis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1368.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13689\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1368.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1368-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1368-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1418.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13690\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1418.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1418-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1418-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After the &#8220;I dos&#8221; (and an encore\nperformance from the quartet) it was time for the reception. Nate and Kate paid\nhomage to their relationship&#8217;s humble beginnings with tennis balls and a racket\ndecorating the welcome table! After they made their grand entrance, the couple\ndanced to Jason Aldean&#8217;s &#8220;You Make it Easy.&#8221; They also shared special\ndances with their parents and their guests; Kate and her father danced to &#8220;My\nLittle Girl&#8221; by Tim McGraw, Nate and his mother danced to Rascal Flatts&#8217;\n&#8220;My Wish,&#8221; and they had an anniversary dance for married guests set\nto Ed Sheeran&#8217;s &#8220;Thinking Out Loud.&#8221; Guests also enjoyed a delicious\ndinner of mixed green salad, filet mignon, grilled Atlantic salmon, mashed\npotatoes, and grilled veggies, complete with a scrumptious almond and red\nvelvet cake with buttercream icing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1466.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13691\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1466.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1466-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/FleWed-1466-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As the evening drew to a close, Nate and Kate got to experience one more magical moment (the first of many in their married life, we assume). Their guests gathered outside the Villa, lit sparklers in hand, for a beautiful sparkler exit that we&#8217;re sure the couple will treasure forever! It was a beautiful wedding, full of romance and laughter, and we wish the happy couple all the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photography by: <a href=\"https:\/\/leslieannphotography.com\/\">Leslie Ann Photography<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A (Tennis) Match Made in Heaven Kate and Nate met during a fateful tennis lesson, and when they got married this past February, the &#8220;love&#8221; was all around!
