February 17, 2013 they made their love official at Villa Siena. The ceremony space was decorated with fresh flowers wrapped in twine alternating with blue bows at the end of the aisles of chairs for guests. The altar was finished with votive candles, soft bursts of peach and pink flowers and baby\u2019s breath.<\/p>\n<p>Rob took his place to wait for his bride in a grey tuxedo with silver tie, while his groomsmen stood beside him in grey tuxedos with blue and pink checkered ties. As the ceremony began, the bridesmaids in floor-length navy blue gowns with sheer straps announced the entrance of the bride. Hilary wore a fitted strapless lace gown with a stunningly simple pink ribbon that tied in back. A pearl necklace and pearl drop earrings were the perfect compliment to the ensemble. The bride wore her hair up to accentuate her natural glow and contagious smile. Hilary\u2019s bouquet was filled with pink and white roses, lilies, hydrangeas and baby\u2019s breath, with a few pearl accents.<\/p>\n<p>The wedding included a sand ceremony and a poem read by family friends.<\/p>\n<p>At the reception, the couple offered adults a signature drink of diet rootbeer and whipped vodka served in mason jars with mustache straws. A photo booth offered further entertainment for the night.<\/p>\n<p>The couple\u2019s first dance was to <em>I Won\u2019t Give Up<\/em> by Jason Mraz followed by a heartfelt father\/daughter dance to Celine Dion\u2019s <em>Because You Loved Me. <\/em>Favors were a candy station with a bag for every guest.<\/p>\n<p>While the couple\u2019s wedding cake was a traditional vanilla cake with vanilla frosting, as a surprise, Hilary presented Rob with a groom\u2019s cake with a Florida Gator\u2019s theme. The cake was presented on an autographed Florida Gator football helmet.<\/p>\n<p>The speeches were touching with the Maid of Honor talking about how she always wanted to be like her sister and was so happy for the couple.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations Hilary and Rob. Remember the smiles of your wedding day and carry them in your hearts forever.<\/p>\n<p>Photography by: Flat Rate Photography<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hilary and Rob met through a mutual friend and realized they had each found their soul mate.
