Parental Consent
A traditional guy, Matt asked Dana’s mother if he could marry her daughter before proposing. He purchased the ring from Dana’s family’s jeweler, Nuggets and Karats.
“I loved it because it wasn’t just a stone in the plain band. It has detail in the stand and detail in the prongs that hold the diamond,” the bride explained.

The Perfect Arrangement
Dana did not use a wedding planner for her wedding with nearly 400 guests. She and her mother relied a lot on her stellar florist who accented the Millennium Biltmore with black magic roses and rose petals, and also brought decorations for the chairs and suggested an L arch instead of a traditional one.
