A Night of Friends,\nFamily, and True Love<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

From the moment we first\nmet Jianna and AJ, it was clear that these two loved each other very much. But\nafter their wedding reception in April, we learned that there\u2019s plenty of love\nto spare \u2014 and they share it with an amazing group of family and friends! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The couple invited 139 of their nearest and dearest to celebrate their marriage here at the Villa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a beautiful evening, and the couple and their wedding party looked like superstars: the bridesmaids wowed in their one-shoulder navy dresses; AJ and his groomsmen were dashing in their gray suits and navy ties; and Jianna was stunning in her strapless, mermaid-style gown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The reception began with the introduction of the bridal party, followed by AJ and Jianna\u2019s first dance as a married couple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

They shared a heartwarming dance to Elvis Presley\u2019s \u201cLove Me Tender\u201d (a classic), before briefly separating to dance with their parents. Jianna and her father danced to a remix of \u201cUnchained Melody\u201d and \u201cDancing on the Ceiling,\u201d while AJ and his mother-in-law danced to Frank Sinatra\u2019s \u201cThe Way You Look Tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon, it was time for\ndinner, and everyone was in for a real treat! Guests settled into their seats\n(AJ and Jianna sat down at their rose gold, sequined sweetheart table) and\nenjoyed a meal of salad with house vinaigrette, green beans, creamy mashed\npotatoes, caprese chicken and prime beef rib. Later, the couple cut into a\ndelicious four-tiered cake \u2014 which included a topper of the bride, groom, and\ntheir cats!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Throughout the reception, everyone from the best man to their parents of the bride talked about how proud they were to be celebrating this very special couple. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was clear that the love and laughter they all shared that day would only continue for years to come \u2014 after all, as Jianna\u2019s father said, they have \u201call become one family.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
