by short sleeves and cuffed in candlelight Italian satin. The bodice and
sleeves were made completely of Venice lace and were accented with pearls
in a floral pattern. The Basque waistline allowed the full ball gown skirt
to fall gracefully to the floor and sweep into a semi-cathedral train.
The skirt was finished with a row of Venice lace around the hem. The back
was accented with pearl buttons and three Italian silk rosettes. To complete
her ensemble she wore a satin headband edged in pearls and finished with
two tiers of candlelight illusion. She carried a hand held bouquet of white
tineke roses, white stock florets and stephanotis.
Attending the bride as matron of honor was Ellen Love of Lubbock, long
time friend of the bride. Bridesmaids were Amy Green of Waco and Tera King
of Fort Stockton, also long time friends of the bride. The bride's attendants
wore matching gowns of Wisteria Dulcine satin. The floor length dresses
featured empire waistlines, soft scoop necklines, and short sleeves. They
were accented in the back with a pleat and sweep train. They carried hand
held bouquets of osiana peach roses with larkspur florets and satin covered
stems.

friends of the groom.
