Pilar dazzled in a sleeveless ballgown with spaghetti straps, a plunging illusion neckline and side slit, floral designs on the bodice and skirt, scoop back, and button-down back detail. Her accessories included drop earrings, a pearl necklace, and white heels with ankle straps. Her bouquet included assorted flowers in shades of lavender, light blue, and white. Her three bridesmaids wore individual full-length periwinkle dresses. They carried smaller versions of the bride\u2019s bouquet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Josh wore a light gray suit with a matching vest, white shirt, lavender-colored tie, and lavender-colored rose boutonniere. His best man wore a dark gray suit with a white shirt, lavender-colored tie, and lavender-colored rose boutonniere. His other two groomsmen wore medium gray suits with white shirts, lavender-colored ties, and lavender-colored rose boutonnieres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later, guests dined on spring-mix salad with strawberries, apples, feta cheese, and pecans with raspberry vinaigrette dressing; creamy Parmesan risotto; mixed vegetables; grilled mahi mahi with honey citrus glaze; and flat iron steak with chimichurri sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the speeches, the maid of honor spoke about her sorority days with the bride. The best man talked about his time in the military with the groom. The father of the bride also gave a toast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Josh and Pilar\u2019s first dance as man and wife was to \u201cNew Resolutions\u201d by Jean-Luc Ponty. Pilar and her father shared a special dance as well, as did Josh and his mother. Other wedding fun included a photobooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wedding cake was a small one-tier creation decorated with roses and a topper that read \u201cAlways.\u201d For the guests, there were a range of desserts including cookies, cheesecake bites and raspberry crumble bars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
