I could not ask for a more beautiful end to my 2015 wedding year than this:  This couple.  This bridal party.  This family.  Planning Laura and Tyler’s Green Door Gourmet wedding was such a treat. Design Inspiration From unique decor ideas to a a stunning color palette, these two pulled out all the stops and […]

I loved this couple.  Their laughter is infectious and her family is a riot!  We had so much fun planning the details of her wedding and ensuring this day was perfect for these sweethearts.  From thoughtful details to the best FOB speech in my tenure, this wedding brought tears to my eyes more than once. […]

When a beautiful medical student meets a freshly-pressed attorney, magic happens, right?! See for yourself! The way they look at each other makes me smile;  the way that they kept their heads about them and didn’t get bogged down with minuscule details; the way she studied for exams and he built his practice all while […]

Kristen and Walter are one of those couples you don’t want to see go. Spending time with them never felt like “work” and I enjoyed getting to know them as we created a picturesque lakeside wedding day for these two. Despite the challenges of turning 2 private residences into wedding venues, this wedding was absolutely […]

Dinosaurs, sequins and stripes….oh MY! What a fun event! I’ve known Katy for nearly 14 years and as AXO sorority sisters, we spent many late nights with a cocktail and a chick flick and shared “fun” memories from Sigma Nu formals. I was super excited when we connected to talk about her wedding day and […]

I love when a bride’s main focus is her marriage to her best friend.  The details and stress can be overwhelming (I could drive home the need for a wedding planner/coordinator) but despite the trials of a long engagement, Kate was a gracious, beautiful bride.   These two are crazy in love and didn’t sweat […]

Fall of 2014 was absolutely nuts. I had 8 weddings in 8 weeks and with a full time job, I knew it was going to be a challenge. Luckily, I had some of my favorite couples lined up for fall weddings and a stellar vendor lineup for each event!  I kicked off my 8 week […]

I love when a mom wants to be involved with the wedding planning as a sounding board, but with the absolute conviction that the decisions are to be her daughter’s: the brides. A well oiled mother-daughter team can be such a blessing to a wedding professional and I was so lucky in this case to […]

Ashlee and Dan are both in medical school at Vanderbilt, both with full plates: classes, clinicals, exams, etc. With the help of friends and family, these two tied the knot in front of ~120 friends and family. I love an organized MOB. And Ashlee was one lucky bride!  Her mom worked to create a beautifully […]

I loved Tina and Daniel’s love story.  I love how he dotes after her and how excited her family was to welcome him into theirs.  I love the way they look at one another and how cool and collected she remained throughout the wedding planning process. I love when a bride truly listens to me. […]
