Joseph and Jessica MacLellan's magical day: the union of two J hearts

At the top of Pride Mountain overlooking Napa Valley, Joe made it clear to Jennifer that their love should live forever. He proposed to her on June 3, 2022, with a white gold engagement ring with an oval diamond in the center and a path of small diamonds around the perimeter.


This is the story of the union of two hearts in love: Jennifer DeCillis, the editor-in-chief of the wedding magazine Bella, and CEO of the JDM company Joe MacLellan.


The couple chose November 3, 2023, as the wedding date. The venue was one of the Antilles islands surrounded by the stormy Atlantic Ocean. The wedding was held in the black and white colors against the background of tall green palm trees to the soft sound of waves.

The bride's appearance was doll-like in its delicacy. Jennifer had nude make-up done for her by her best friend and a mermaid-style hairstyle. "I have never felt more confident or beautiful.. thank you, I love you, and couldn't have done this without you!!!", Jennifer told about her glam. Her bouquet consisted exclusively of large white roses and was complemented by a white ribbon, pearls, and a vintage pendant with a portrait of her grandmother. Bride shoes were hand-beaded with ivory stones, beads, and brilliant crystals to shine like diamonds.

It is worth noting that the bride had as many as 3 wedding dresses. "Life is too short to only have one wedding dress".

The first for the ceremony was custom-made by designer Justin Alexander. It was adorned with lace, flowers, and pearls, and featured a deep neckline and delicate straps that accentuated the girl's fragile shoulders.
The groom chose a classic timeless image for himself. He wore a black tuxedo and decorated it with a white rose, which perfectly harmonized with the bride's bouquet.

All the bridesmaids were dressed in white satin dresses and carried bouquets of white roses, matching the bride's bouquet. In contrast to the ivory style of girls, groomsmen stood out in black classic suits.

After the wedding ceremony, the fiancée continued the celebration in a light satin Mikassa dress with sparkling rhinestones on the straps and waist. The folds of it effectively emphasize Jennifer's bust and figure.


For the celebration, the couple has chosen personalized Ruta Ivory glasses, which effectively fit into the wedding theme. The engraving with the two J letters and the wedding date will serve as a reminder of the birth of their eternal love.
At the very end, Jessica prepared a short dress with a train, completely studded with rhinestones, for fiery wedding dances. This is an ideal option for sparkling under the soffits.

"It was all perfect!" — this is how Jennifer responds about the most important day in the life of their couple.
