For the ceremony, held on the Clubhouse patio, the vows took place by a floral arch.
Escorted in marriage by her father, the bride was attired in a champagne gown designed with a sleeveless beaded bodice and a full tulle skirt. Finishing her ensemble was a faux fur wrap and a fingertip-length veil.

Jeffrey Huddleston served as best man. Groomsmen were Cody Boudreaux, brother-in-law of the groom; and Christopher Shirley and Jonathan Shirley, brothers of the bride.
A reception immediately followed.
Clubhouse decorations were in a rustic theme. Tables held lanterns and candles on cypress planks from the family’s camp and were surrounded by eucalyptus.
A three-tiered wedding scrape cake held a eucalyptus and monogram cake topper, and was filled with almond, lemon and strawberry.
Prior to the wedding, a rehearsal dinner was hosted by the couple’s parents at the Lake End Parkway cabins in Morgan City. The groom made gumbo for the catered event.
