A Love\nStory \u201cWritten\u201d in the Stars<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amanda and Richard\u2019s love story began with a\nletter. While Richard was in the army, his college friend Amanda began writing\nhim letters to keep in touch. Their relationship blossomed over the years, and\nsoon it was clear that their connection went far beyond friendship. By 2019,\nthey were engaged \u2014 and earlier this April, these two tied the knot in our\nPlaza Toscana. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their spring wedding was filled with lovely\npink and ivory florals, which matched the rose and navy color scheme of the\nevent. The bridal party also dressed according to the theme; the bridesmaids\nwore long dresses in dusty rose, and Richard and his groomsmen sported classy\nnavy suits. Amanda, of course, wore a stunning white a-line gown, which\nfeatured a lace bodice, jewel neckline, and a full tulle skirt. As she came\ndown the aisle, she looked absolutely beautiful \u2014 and both she and Richard had\nthe brightest, biggest smiles!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ceremony was a quick, traditional affair,\nofficiated by the groom\u2019s friend. The couple exchanged their vows and rings,\nsealed the union with a kiss, and headed off to the reception hall to\ncelebrate! Guests were quick to follow them in and get the party started. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the reception, guests enjoyed a dinner\nof caesar salad, twice-baked potatoes, pesto angel hair pasta, caprese chicken\nwith balsamic glaze, and herb-crusted pork loin with champagne mustard and\napricot glaze. The couple kicked off the party by sharing their first dance to\nLanco\u2019s \u201cGreatest Love Story,\u201d and then dancing with their parents; Amanda and\nher father danced to \u201cMy Little Girl\u201d by Tim McGraw, and Richard and his mother\ndanced to \u201cThe First Lady in My Life\u201d by Paul Todd. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the dinner was finished and the dancing\nbegan, it was hard to find a single person not out on the dance floor. This wedding\nwas one filled with joy, love, and laughter, and we know that a night like that\ncan only mean many years of happiness for our newlyweds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
