Instead of a traditional gown she chose a vintage dress with spaghetti straps, empire waist and A-line skirt that was finished in trim just above the knee. A bow tied in back of the dress. She wore sparkly strappy shoes. The bride\u2019s bouquet mixed peach and white roses and hydrangeas. John wore a black suit with black shoes and a patterned tie.<\/p>\n<p>This couple is proof that time doesn\u2019t take the spark out of love. The couple\u2019s personality came out throughout the wedding from the wedding truck that made pizzas in the parking lot to the wedded couple\u2019s first dance to <em>Let\u2019s Get It On. <\/em>All the guests were invited to join the couple for their first dance.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/ABC_7452.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-6432\" title=\"ABC_7452\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/ABC_7452.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"567\" height=\"410\" \/><\/a>\n<p>Centerpieces were books stacked on top of one another, reflecting Paulette\u2019s love of teaching, with a jar of flowers edged in lace on top. At each seat was a mason jar with a chalkboard for guests to write their names on or draw a picture. Mad Libs helped break the ice at each table for guests who might not know each other. The kids\u2019 table had stickers at each table setting and crayons to help the kids stay entertained during the meal.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DSC5839.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-6433\" title=\"_DSC5839\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DSC5839.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"571\" height=\"377\" \/><\/a>\n<p>Because Paulette is a big runner, she included pumpkin seeds and pistachios to the candy bar, since they are her favorite snack.
