    Allison Leigh Glisson became the bride of Adam Rosser Moore during an outdoor ceremony at Shannon Vineyards in Sylvania, Georgia, on the evening of April 16, 2011. Pastor Scott Moore of Statesboro officiated the double-ring ceremony.
    The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David W. (Lisa) Glisson of Statesboro and the granddaughter of Mr. John C. Johnson of Plainfield, Georgia.
    The groom is the son of Dr. and Mrs. Michael E. (Dixie) Moore of Tampa, Florida, and the grandson of Mrs. Charlotte Dial of Morrow, Ga.

    Given in marriage by her parents and escorted by her father, the bride's diamond white wedding gown featured a modified sweetheart neckline, side gather pleated bodice with scattered pearl and glass beadwork, a corseted back with a chapel-length train. Her diamond white two-tier fingertip-length veil was trimmed with glass beading along the edge to compliment her gown. She carried a bouquet of white calla lilies and white roses tied with white satin ribbon. Her "something borrowed" was a pearl and rhinestone necklace borrowed from her friend, Jaclyn Cason.
