We never recommend stalking anyone, but stalking seemed to work for Ben and Kelsey. Introduced by a mutual friend, Ben jokes that he stalked Kelsey on MySpace back when MySpace was popular. Whatever he did, it worked. June 6, 2013 the couple wed at Villa Siena. Both the bride and groom shone with bright smiles.
The couple chose an indoor wedding ceremony with a white runner sprinkled with red rose petals. On the altar candles glowed. To start the ceremony, the groom took his place in front of the altar with his groomsmen next to him. Ben wore a black tuxedo with white shirt and tie. His groomsmen wore black tuxedos with blue vests and ties.
All eyes quickly to turned to Kelsey as she entered in a strapless gown with beaded bodice and layered tulle skirt. She wore a cathedral length veil over a half up-do and carried a bouquet of assorted flowers in reds, purples, pinks and whites. For shoes she chose a fabulous pair of platform shoes with a bow on the side. As she joined her groom, the ceremony began. Ben recited personal vows he had written for the bride.
During the reception the newlyweds shared a private table that was the center of attention. Christina Perry’s A Thousand Years marked the first dance as husband and wife for Kelsey and Ben. The cake was a four-tiered affair with crystal bands wrapping each layer. A dessert selection included strawberry shortcake, chocolate ding dong and lemon raspberry mousse. Favors were a chocolate candy box.
Congratulations Kelsey and Ben. Your genuine love of life and of each other shone through on your wedding day and we hope that warmth shines every day of your lives together.
