Music for the ceremony was provided by William Green. Readings were given by Donnie Broussard, the brides godmother, Kerry Theall, the grooms godmother.
Escorted by her grandfather Danny Prejean and Randy Bouillion, the bride wore a high-square neckline gown with hints of vintage glamour while the illusion center front plunge narrowed toward the waist line for a totally updated twist. The curved seaming along the bodice added structure and support, while the double banded waist feature created an empire waist effect that complimented the shape. The full skirt flowed out from the bottom of the waist for a smoother A-line shape, creating more of an hourglass figure throughout the silhouette.
The shimmery, all ivory lace chapel wedding veil is an irresistible choice for the non-traditional bride with a special touch of sophistication and glamour. The bride carried a hand-tied bouquet that featured dark red and blush roses wrapped with burgundy hypericum berries, white wax flowers, cedar greens and a variety of eucalyptus.
Serving as Maid of Honor was friend of the bride Mia Hardy. Bridesmaids included Hillarie Stein, Alysse Hebert, Pam Andrus, Christine Andrus, Ali Prejean, Alaina Meaux and Blair Harmson. Attending as junior bridesmaid was Emma Andrus and serving as flower girl was Lusie Stein. The attendants wore Lux Velvet maxi dresses with pockets and a soft pleated bodice to its flirty flutter sleeves.
Serving as best man was brother of the groom, Jarrod Andrus. Groomsmen included Josh Andrus, Ridge Andrus, Matt Dore, Wyatt Broussard, Barron Andrus, Lane Toups and Renee Toups. Serving as ring bearer was Luke Andrus.
The mother of the bride was escorted by her husband Charles Toups and the mother of the groom was escorted by her son Jacob, the groom, and her husband John Andrus.
