Flower balls of roses and hyacinths were tied to the ends of aisle chairs. To begin the ceremony, the ring bearer carried a sign down the aisle that read <em>Here comes the bride &#8211; My Mommy. <\/em>The officiant was the couple\u2019s pastor and as part of the ceremony three different colored sands were combined together in a single jar to represent the merging of three lives: the bride, the groom and the bride\u2019s son. A family blessing was given during the ceremony. The sign <em>And they lived happily ever after<\/em> was a perfect prediction for their lives together.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/McCWed-1334.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-8876\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/McCWed-1334.jpg\" alt=\"McCWed-1334\" width=\"501\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a>\n<p>For her wedding day, Michelle chose a gown from David\u2019s bridal with an embroidered bodice and ruffled skirt. She also wore a headband and veil. The bridal bouquet wrapped roses, hyacinths and green ivy in lace. Peeking out from under her dress was a pair of silver open-toed shoes. Her bridesmaids were in strapless pale blue Vera Wang floor-length gowns with belts and ruffles down the front. The groom was dressed a grey tuxedo with piping with a white shirt, bowtie and a white rose in his lapel. His groomsmen wore grey tuxedos with light blue vests and light blue ties.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/McCWed-1572.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-8877\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/McCWed-1572.jpg\" alt=\"McCWed-1572\" width=\"501\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a>\n<p>At the reception the groom surprised the bride with blue personalized name lighting by Karma Event Lighting.

For dessert a three-tiered round white cake with white detailed piping was served. Under the frosting was a white almond infused cake with almond cream cheese filling. The topper was a groom on one knee kissing the bride\u2019s hand.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/McCWed-1720.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-8879\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/McCWed-1720.jpg\" alt=\"McCWed-1720\" width=\"332\" height=\"499\" \/><\/a>\n<p>Favors were crystal mini-carriages.
