Slight sequined detailing glittered in the light, as did the crystal belt that wrapped the dress. The bride\u2019s shoes had a crystal pattern. Underneath the dress, satin shoes with a crystal pattern hid. Kristen\u2019s bridesmaids wore pale pink strapless dresses with a satin ribbon at an empire waist. The bride opted for a drop bouquet filled with pale pink roses, orchids and hydrangeas while her bridesmaids carried smaller versions of the same bouquet. Lamec wore a traditional black tuxedo but added his own personality with red racecar cufflinks. His groomsmen also wore black tuxedos with grey bowties while the groom had a black bowtie.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/361.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-7678\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/361.jpg\" alt=\"361\" width=\"488\" height=\"325\" \/><\/a>\n<p>Guests were encouraged to fill out Madlibs offering the couple quirky advice and a few good laughs. The welcome table was filled with pictures of Kristen and Lamec from childhood on.<\/p>\n<p>The wedding ceremony was held indoors with the aisle lined with candles and rose petals. In his speech, the father of the bride thanked everyone for coming.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/483.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-7679\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/483.jpg\" alt=\"483\" width=\"486\" height=\"324\" \/><\/a>\n<p>Instead of a traditional guest book\u00a0for friends and family to sign, the couple used a photobooth for pictures of everyone for their guest book. Favors were coffee beans from Honduras.<\/p>\n<p>While the cake was a sweet delight, it couldn\u2019t steal the sweetness that was shared between the newlyweds. The three-tiered wedding cake had a rhinestone ribbon around each layer with a plain top tier and decorative piping on the second and third layers.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/341.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-7680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/341-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"341\" width=\"507\" height=\"338\" \/><\/a>\n<p>The day was a beautiful day and we offer our heartfelt congratulations.
