Victoria and Michael met on-line and spent time getting to know each other before they became serious. The proposal was as much of a fairytale as you could ask for as Victoria was wearing a Cinderella costume while Mike wore a Prince Charming costume when he proposed at Disneyland.
Victoria looked no less lovely on her wedding day in a gown with beaded detailing edging the bodice. Lace overlaid a full skirt. A tiara and blusher veil with rhinestones added to the effect of Victoria as a fairytale princess. The bridal bouquet combined orchids, lavender and violet roses. The bridesmaids wore gowns from David’s bridal, which were dark purple strapless gowns with empire waists. The groomsmen wore black tuxedos with purple vests and ties while Michael was handsome in a black tuxedo with white shirt, tie and vest.
Although October 4, 2014 was a joyous celebration of love, the passing of the bride’s grandmother that morning lent mixed emotions to the day. A prayer was said for her. During the ceremony the couple enclosed handwritten letters to each other in a wooden box that was engraved with their name. Inside the letters and a bottle of wine would wait to be enjoyed at the couple’s 10th wedding anniversary. As part of the ceremony, the couple was brought together with the sentiment that “Love is the only constant in this world.”
After the ceremony, Michael and his bride took to the dance floor to Come What May by Jackie Evancho followed by the mother & son dance to My Wish by Rascall Flats. The father & daughter dance was to Lauretta Mia by Enrico Musiani.
The best man, who went to high school with the groom, and the maid of honor who had known the bride since first grade gave speeches. She wished the newlyweds a “happily ever after.” A couple’s table was set up for Victoria and Michael with silver and crystal candleholders.
The wedding cake was four tiers of white cake with crystal ribbon edging each layer and purple fondant roses on top. Favors were ladle holders.
The night ended with a Villa Siena signature sparkler farewell. Congratulations Victoria and Michael. May your love for one another continue to bloom throughout the years. We wish you the best.
