Diamond drop earrings illuminated the look. The bride perfectly suited her fitted gown with lace overlay. The dress finished with a slight mermaid flair and belted waist. Nichole\u2019s groom DJ wore a grey tuxedo with a black tie. His groomsmen matched the groom. The bridesmaids brought an ethereal look to the ceremony with blush colored flowing dresses with rouching on top and edging along the bottom hem. Each bridesmaid wore a silver necklace with a single black pearl hanging down. While the bride\u2019s bouquet featured pink roses, and fairy like white flowers with eucalyptus leaves, the bridesmaid\u2019s bouquets were a simpler version including only the fairy flower.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/MelWed-1315.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-7688\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/MelWed-1315.jpg\" alt=\"MelWed-1315\" width=\"391\" height=\"587\" \/><\/a>\n<p>As guests entered the Villa, they were greeted with pictures of the couple from childhood. Fans during the ceremony served as programs and helped keep guests cool. On the altar crystal candleholders with round candles set in them were displayed.<\/p>\n<p>The speeches were warm and welcoming with the maid of honor proclaiming how happy she was for the couple and so glad they found each other through her. The best man talked about the groom being like a brother to him.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/MelWed-1325.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-7689\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/MelWed-1325.jpg\" alt=\"MelWed-1325\" width=\"505\" height=\"336\" \/><\/a>\n<p>The warmth and love continued through the first dance with John Legend\u2019s <em>All of Me. <\/em>Afterwards guests got to take home pictures from the photobooth. Props were provided for more creative photographs.<\/p>\n<p>The wedding cake was three tiers. The top tier featured red velvet cake with a ruffled layer of frosting on top with fresh flowers.
