Margie & Chris ~ October 6, 2018

A Classic Wedding in White and Gold

From the moment guests arrived at the Villa Siena for Margie and Chris’ wedding reception, they knew they were in for an elegant affair. The couple had decorated the Villa’s front entry with a beautiful welcome sign, featuring the couple’s monogram in a lovely gold frame. This classy look followed guests into the reception hall, where they gathered at tables set with elegant white and gold place settings and centerpieces filled with pink, white, and fuschia florals.

Once the guests were settled, it was time for Mr. and Mrs. Carlson to make their grand entrance. Margie looked gorgeous in her wedding gown, which featured a strapless lace bodice with a sweetheart neckline and a ruffled, tiered ball gown skirt. Her loose wave hairstyle and minimalist jewelry (pearl earrings and a teardrop pearl necklace) made her look effortlessly beautiful — and the big smile on her face certainly gave her a happy glow! Chris also looked classically handsome in his standard black tux and white rose boutonniere.

The couple shared their first dance as husband and wife to Brad Paisley’s “Then,” and then split up briefly to dance with their parents. Margie and her father danced to the Eagle’s “Peaceful Easy Feeling,” while Chris and his mother shared a sweet dance to “Because You Loved Me” by Celine Dion. Then, it was time for dinner!

Guests enjoyed a spring mix salad, grilled chicken breasts, sliced beef tenderloin, herb roasted red potatoes, and fresh green beans while the best man, maid of honor, and father of the bride shared their favorite moments and memories of the happy couple. Then, it was time to hit the dance floor again — that is, until the cake was served (red velvet and white almond cakes with cream cheese frosting? Yum!)

Margie and Chris’ wedding was a lovely, fun event for a lovely, fun couple. We wish them both a lifetime of happiness!
