Guests, including Vanessa's Riverdale co-stars such as Skeet Ulrich, Drew Tanner, and Madelaine Petsch, indulged in a signature coconut drink and oysters during the cocktail hour.
The newlyweds entered the reception with Bring Me a Higher Love music on the background. They also had a heartfelt and passionate first dance to the tune of Tim McGraw's "My Best Friend."
During the reception, some of the key people who made a tear-jerking speech were the father of the bride, mother of the groom, and Vanessa's maid of honor, her sister Celina.
Mr. and Mrs. Kopech's guests also enjoyed a vintage-style VM Photobooth and got the chance to peek at their future with a fortune teller. All of these were carefully planned and executed by events planner, Tami Varma.

Vanessa and Michael's story started through social media when she found him on her Instagram explore page and also followed his Twitter account. Michael immediately returned some love and slid through Vanessa's DM.
In June 2018, they decided to meet in Chicago, and the rest, as they say, is history.
The couple got engaged in July last year and announced it by posting a photo of the baseball hunk down on one knee in front of the breath-taking Mooney Falls near the Grand Canyon in Arizona.

In his Instagram engagement announcement, Michael confessed that the proposal was a "spur out of the moment decision." Being the self-confessed non-traditional type of guy, Michael said he knows their relationship is forever, so they don't have to wait a long time to seal the deal.
