The bridesmaids donned their gowns in a private room as the groom and his groomsmen dressed for the upcoming wedding. The groom wore a black tuxedo with white shirt and black bowtie. His groomsmen also wore black tuxedos but with purple striped ties to match the bridesmaids\u2019 dresses, which were full-length gowns of purple with crystal beading accents. The bride stood out in a gown that was fitted to the hips before finishing in layers of ruffles. A tiara, fit for a queen, and a veil were worn over the bride\u2019s up-do.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-8569\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/4-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"4\" width=\"332\" height=\"498\" \/><\/a>\n<p>As guests arrived they were treated to a display of framed pictures of the couple throughout their lives.
