The bride was given in marriage by her father.

The ball gown skirt with chapel-length train was accented with double inverted box pleats at both the front and back of the skirt.
Her chapel-length veil of silk illusion fell from a band of crystals and silver beads. Tucked into her bouquet was a lace handkerchief carried by her paternal grandmother, mother and aunts at their weddings.
