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. […]

I’ve known Natalie for almost 15 years.  She was actually one of the first girls I met on campus at MTSU and she instantly intimidated me…she was older AND in a sorority!  Fast forward a few months and we are sorority sisters, planning events, attending social gatherings and pomping homecoming floats.  When she contacted me […]

I liked Liz from the first phone conversation. Her spunk and energy were intoxicating and we shared a common bond: state employees! She was incredibly organized and excited so pulling the final details together for her fall Green Door Gourmet wedding was a pleasure.  The smiles on their faces NEVER LEFT!  They were one of the […]

I have enjoyed looking back through these wedding photos to create these blog posts.  So much hard work and love went into this event.  Jena and Trent added some really incredible personal touches to the day, but my favorite part: the flowers! Jena and I searched online for months for inspiration to tie in the […]

Yeah, this wedding is gonna be 3 posts.  I won’t apologize…it’s just really that amazing! We started with a single image and I’m impressed how quickly the event came together. With farm tables, benches & tuscan chairs and brightly colored linens, the tent at The Governor’s Club was transformed. Gold chargers and bow tie napkins […]

Confession: I hate blogging. There, I said it. I need to incorporate it into my workflow, but I rarely find the energy or time to do it. That’s not fair to my brides. I’ve been a bride and I remember that seeing our images up on vendors’ sites was a big deal and SO exciting. […]

One thing […]

This wedding is so special to me!  One of my dearest friend’s sister, after YEARS together, was tying the night with her sweetheart! From the Christmas trees to the peppermint bark favors, this wedding was such an intimate and festive occasion!  A traditional church ceremony was followed by a homestyle meal, delicious red velvet cake and a […]

I’ve held off on doing this post; not because I don’t want to (far from it!) but because, to date, it’s one of the most personal weddings I’ve worked/planned. Sometimes, an opportunity comes around to repay someone that you so desperately want to thank.  They deserve to know how much their kindness has meant to you and […]
