Mariah and Nick were married on March 10, 2023.
Mariah looked gorgeous in a fit-and-flare gown with a straight neckline, long lace sleeves, and a button-down back. She accessorized with drop earrings and a veil. She carried a bouquet of white flowers, including roses, snapdragons, and hydrangeas. Her four bridesmaids wore individual full-length beige dresses. They carried modified version of the bride’s bouquet.
Nick got married in a slate blue suit with a matching vest, white shirt, blue and white patterned tie, light blue pocket square, and a white flower boutonniere. His four groomsmen wore slightly darker blue suits with matching vests, white shirts, blue and white patterned ties, light blue pocket squares, and white flower boutonnieres.
During the outdoor ceremony, the officiant, Mariah’s uncle, spoke about what it means for the newlyweds to truly be each other’s best friend.
Later, attendees dined on Caesar salad, potatoes au gratin, tortellini primavera; caprese chicken; and grilled Atlantic salmon with hollandaise sauce.
Guests were encouraged to leave a voice message for the bride and groom on a special phone.
In the toasts, Nick’s father said how grateful he is for the bride and groom. Mariah’s father told stories about her growing up. Mariah’s mother thanked all the guests for coming.
Nick and Mariah’s first dance as man and wife was to “Better Together” by Luke Combs. Mariah and her father danced to “Half the Man” by Jennifer Hart. She and her mother danced to “When God Made You My Mother” by Riley Roth. Nick and his mother danced to “Thought You Should Know” by Morgan Wallen.
The five-tier white wedding cake had a dot design on the first, third, and fifth layers. It was topped with an ornament bearing the couple’s last name and wedding date.
We wish the newlyweds all the best in their beautiful new life together!
