The two married on September 5, 2015. They held their reception at Villa Siena.<br \/>\nThe bride\u2019s gown came from Lillian &amp; Lottie\u2019s Allure Collection. The lace gown showcased a plunging neckline, lace straps and a fitted bodice. Lace shoes peeked out from under the skirt of the gown. Shannon wore her hair in an up-do with a cathedral-length veil. Her bouquet was wrapped with fabric from her mother\u2019s wedding dress. A pearl rosary hung over the roses and orchids in the bouquet, while her bridesmaids brought a splash of color to the festivities with turquoise knee-length gowns with V-necks and smaller versions of the bride\u2019s bouquet. The groom went with a tailored look with a blue suit with blue vest, turquoise tie and white shirt. His groomsmen wore the same ensemble minus the vest.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Tiffany-Blue-Wedding-16.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-9942 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Tiffany-Blue-Wedding-16.jpg\" alt=\"Tiffany-Blue-Wedding (16)\" width=\"354\" height=\"532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Tiffany-Blue-Wedding-16.jpg 665w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Tiffany-Blue-Wedding-16-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 354px) 100vw, 354px\" \/><\/a>\n<p>As guests arrived they were asked to write their birthdays in a calendar for a unique twist on a guestbook. Thank you notes were at each table to acknowledge how important friends and family are to the couple.<br \/>\nAfter dinner, two layers of white wedding cake with almond frosting sat above a cupcake tower with chocolate and red velvet cupcakes with vanilla frosting. The topper was a black silhouette of a bride jumping into her groom\u2019s arms with the couple\u2019s last name and date of marriage.<br \/>\nDuring speeches, the groom\u2019s brother talked about how the bride brings out the best in Brian. The father of the bride noted that Shannon hadn\u2019t stopped smiling since the engagement and that he was giving Brian a perfect specimen.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Tiffany-Blue-Wedding-20.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-9944 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Tiffany-Blue-Wedding-20.jpg\" alt=\"Tiffany-Blue-Wedding (20)\" width=\"356\" height=\"535\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Tiffany-Blue-Wedding-20.jpg 665w, https:\/\/www.villasiena.cc\/wedding-talk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Tiffany-Blue-Wedding-20-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 356px) 100vw, 356px\" \/><\/a>\n<p><em>Lifetime <\/em>was chosen for the couple\u2019s first dance followed by the father &amp; daughter dance to <em>The Way You Look Tonight<\/em> by Frank Sinatra and the mother &amp; son dance to <em>Somewhere Over the Rainbow. <\/em>Other dances included an anniversary dance and a limbo dance with men\u2019s ties tied together to make a bar.<br \/>\nCongratulations Shannon &amp; Brian.
