A Formal Outdoor Wedding at The Club at Bella Collina in Montverde, Florida

From her Vera Wang ball gown to the beautiful ivory and blush florals and the Tuscan charm of The Club at Bella Collina, every detail of Jessica and B

From her Vera Wang ball gown to the beautiful ivory and blush florals and the Tuscan charm of The Club at Bella Collina, every detail of Jessica and Ben's wedding was utterly romantic.

A strapless Vera Wang ball gown with layers of flowing organza fit perfectly with the elegant, romantic vibe of the wedding.
I really wanted something that was timeless and elegant, says Jessica of her veil, I also wanted something that had a really long train. I found Denise Leli, who makes custom veils and had designed Danielle Jonas's veil, which I happened to really like. She made a gorgeous veil with a cathedral length train for me, with a few added layers to give me the volume I wanted.
Jessica and Ben went with a classic, formal look for their invitations, opting for gold ink and a custom monogram.
Jessica had all of her bridesmaids wear the same strapless trumpet-style gown in a soft shade of blush. The gowns were accented by large horsehair bows tied at the natural waist.
A simple ivory peony boutonniere was placed on Ben's lapel.
The flower girls dresses mirrored Jessica's own gown, with full organza skirts.
Ornate stone pillars stood at the entrance to the ceremony. The urns were filled with ivory and blush hydrangeas and roses for a traditional, romantic look.
The chairs lining the ceremony aisle were covered with sheer blush fabric, while the rest of the white chiavari chairs remained uncovered, creating a unique visual effect.
A floral garland draped over a wrought iron backdrop added a romantic, vintage aesthetic to the ceremony.
The escort cards were elegantly displayed alongside pillar candles and a pewter candelabra topped with blush and ivory flowers.
Cyprus trees and sweeping views of the water gave the reception a Tuscan-inspired feel. The long farm tables were arranged around a long reflecting pool that would enhance the romantic ambiance of the space as the sun began to set.
Arrangements of ivory and blush colored roses and hydrangeas lined the reception tables, surrounded by white pillar candles in clear glass candlesticks.
Lanterns and white pillar candles cast a warm, romantic glow over the stone steps.
The elegant eight layer cake held a unique surprise inside -- instead of classic vanilla, Jessica and Ben chose a totally unexpected flavor for the cake, pineapple rum!
to complement her classic look, Jessica opted for a pair of ivory satin pointed-to pumps with crystal embellishments.
