Alyssa & Derrick ~ March 13, 2011

Alyssa & Derrick were married in an outdoor ceremony at Villa Siena on March 13th, 2011. This adorable couple met their sophomore year of High School. Marrying one’s High School sweetheart seems quite rare these days, but this darling couple beat the odds! Alyssa’s Uncle, Joe, married the couple making it a very personal ceremony. During cocktail hour a slideshow of Alyssa and Derrick’s history entertained guests. Tables were named after significant places throughout the couple’s relationship and were accompanied by a photo; this allowed the guests to follow along this journey of young love.   Alyssa and her father had choreographed a unique father/daughter dance that started with, “You’ve lost that lovin’ feeling. ”  A favorite they had danced to when Alyssa was younger.   The two then broke into a contemporary hip hop dance, which was great fun to watch and got everyone on their feet to join in!  Guests continued to dance the night away and ended the night by creating a sparkler tunnel for the newlyweds. We wish these high school sweethearts many more years of happiness! Congratulations Alyssa & Derrick <3
