Denise and Bill were married with an elegant ceremony and reception on Sunday, February 7, 2016.
Denise donned a mermaid-hem wedding gown covered in white lace with a V-neck top. A bedazzled headband held her sheer veil to the back of her spiraling, strawberry-blonde hair. She stood atop bejeweled I. Miller Sherita heeled shoes, and held a posy-style bouquet of fresh white roses.
Bill wore a solid black suit with a white shirt, silver vest, pocket square, and tie. A white rose ornamented the lapel of his jacket.
During the outdoor ceremony, Denise and Bill were married in front of the fireplace at the end of a white carpet flanked with white rose petals. A live guitarist played during the candle ceremony. The officiant was Denise’s father, who stated, “Destiny brought them together.”
During the reception, Denise and Bill sat in plush armchairs at the Bride and Groom Table, topped with elegant candleholders, framed photos of the couple, and the bride’s bouquet. Dinner included an array of appetizers, including pork sliders, bread, cheese, potatoes, and fresh grapes.
The wedding cake was four tiered, alternating rectangle and round-style layers. Each white layer of strawberry cake was fastening with a bejeweled, silver ribbon, and the whole cake was topped with a pair of silver sparkling hearts.
Toasts were given with an open mic. The Mother of the Bride advised to keep Jesus in the middle of their love. The bride’s son spoke, expressing how he respects and loves them both. The Father of the Groom said he loves them, and the groom’s son expressed his happiness for them, and how he loves Denise and her family. A mutual friend, George, expressed how he met them in church, and believes they are perfect together.
Best wishes to the newlyweds, Denise and Bill.
