Officiating the ceremony was Rev. Dewitt “Bill” Bain. A special prayer was offered by Carl Fountain, uncle of the groom. The vocalist for the ceremony was Shannon Bain.
Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a strapless ivory and champagne gown which featured an A-line split front with a gathered waist and beaded lace detail. She wore a waist length ivory veil edged in champagne satin and accented with tiny crystals. She carried a hand-tied bouquet of ivory roses and green hypericum berries.
Attending the bride as matron of honor was Amanda Dean, with Lillian Dean serving as junior bridesmaid. They wore chartreuse knee-length dupioni silk dresses with a crumb-catcher bodice and shirred empire waist.
