The bride was preceded by her bridesmaids, who wore blue floor-length gowns with a single shoulder strap decorated with flowers. Then Melissa walked down the aisle with her daughter. Alvin surprised the bride\u2019s daughter by presenting her with a necklace during the ceremony. Melissa wore a strapless wedding gown that was fitted through the bodice before flowing into an A-line skirt. The gown was overlaid with lace and resembled a princess\u2019 dress. Buttons flowed down the back. A diamond necklace added some sparkle and silver strappy shoes added some sass. She wore her hair in a half up-do with a veil attached underneath. A large veil of blush and champagne colored roses complimented the look. During the ceremony the couple sealed up a bottle of wine that they would open in a few years.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/MatWed-1453.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-7465\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/MatWed-1453.jpg\" alt=\"MatWed-1453\" width=\"551\" height=\"367\" \/><\/a>\n<p>After the ceremony the maid of honor gave a touching toast.
