We are absolutely in awe from the pictures we received from Amber and Richard's very special day! Their wedding was picture perfect and everything came together so beautifully! Their ceremony was everything a bride could want and the celebration after was as fun as it gets! They have such an amazing love story and we are so glad we were able to be a small part of it!
High School Sweethearts
Amber and Richard met while in high school at Ritenour High. They started dating their Junior year and during their Senior year they won the Superlative for the Cutest Couple! They continued to date through college and after 5 1/5 years, Richard proposed! In June 2015, Richard got down on one knee while they were in Chicago on Lake Michigan! He of course asked both of Amber’s parents for their permission and they eagerly approved. They were engaged for a little over a year before tying the knot on August 6, 2016!
Their Dream Wedding
According to the stunning bride, everything was so beautiful and absolutely perfect! They got married at the Saint Francis Xavier College Church surrounded by their family and closest friends. Their friend, Nina, surprised them with a white Rolls Royce, identical to the one Amber’s parents had at their wedding! They continued the celebration at the Moolah Oasis Ballroom and it was an absolute blast! Amber wore a gorgeous fit and flare gown from Allure Bridals. This dress features an embellished sweetheart neckline and the entire dress is covered in delicate lace appliques. Amber paired this beautiful bridal gown with a cathedral veil from Bel Aire Bridal and her bridesmaids also had stunning dresses from B2 by Jasmine! A few days after their very special day, they had their honeymoon in Los Cabos at the Hyatt Ziva Resort. Amber stated, “it was the most amazing vacation! We cannot wait to return for an anniversary!”
