TIffany and Justin 10.04.08

Well this post has been a long time coming! I am using the first part of the year to get caught up on old weddings and posting about them!

First off, had to post the picture of the Manolos! Hello Sex In the City!

This wedding was on probably the most gorgeous day in October! It was perfect! The ceremony took place at the Historic First Presbyterian Church in downtown Franklin. It has the most amazing stained glass windows! Don't get too envious though, they only allow members to be married there :( 

The reception took place at Oaklawn in Spring Hill. This Civil War era home is a hidden treasure! Contact us if you would like more info on this venue. The home served as a perfect backdrop to Tiffany's dream reception! 

The AMAZING Angela Disrud was the photographer that we booked for this wedding. I couldn't have been more impressed with anyone. She was by far my favorite vendor for the day! I always love photogs, but she was exceptional. 

The beautiful peacock cake was provided by The Sweetest Day, one of my favorite Nashville cake designers. Stephanie's cakes are always gorgeous and delicious to match. 

Catering was provided by Puckett's Grocery in downtown Franklin. They put on an amazing spread of good Southern food, and at a very reasonable price!

Enjoy the amazing photos and please contact us for any further info!

Neeley and John- 11/15/08- "Non-professional pics"!

When Neeley contacted us to coordinate her large wedding, we were impressed with this bride's organization and attention to detail. Her guest list of over 600 people didn't scare us at all! With over 500 attending, this was definitely the biggest wedding we have worked with thus far.

Sonrise Photography was amazing to work with. They set up a slide show of some of the images in the lobby at the reception, and they were amazing. Can't wait to get some"real" pics soon! After the candlelight service, The Graymere Country Club was the site of this larger than life wedding reception. We utilized every available space at the club to accommodate all the people. The entire dining room, bar, outdoor porch, a huge tent, and a smaller lounge tent were used. The color scheme of teal and brown was beautiful, as you can see in some of the pictures.

The cakes, by the Bake Shoppe were amazing as always! Neeley's 6 layer cake was incredible and breathtaking for sure. It almost reached the ceiling! The flowers were designed by a friend of the family, and turned out amazing.

Best wishes to Neeley and John! I loved working with you guys, and your families are amazing! (Especially you Woody, without you, those lanterns just may not have been!)

More pictures to come!

Kristin and Matt! 9-27-08

September 27 was a beautiful day, perfect for a wedding. It was a bit warm in the day, but by 5:30, it was perfect. Traveller's Rest provided a gorgeous site for an intimate wedding and reception.

Christina and I had the pleasure of working with Kristin and Matt for the better part of a year planning their wedding. They are a very sweet, down to earth couple with simple and elegant taste. I was thrilled to work with Stephanie, or La Photographie, for the first time. She is a hip, retro kind of photographer, and fit in perfectly with the style of the wedding.

Kristin chose simple potted orchids for centerpieces that were sent home with family members and friends. Whole Foods provided the orchids at a wonderful price. Alexander's Catering provided a tasty plated dinner of beef tenderloin and scallops. There were also vegetarian and vegan options. The gorgeous cake was made by a family friend.

Last but not least, my favorite florist, Caprice, with Enchanted Florist, provided the florals. As always, they were amazing!

Going Away Party at Arrington Vineyards

Even as the remnants of Hurricane Ike came through Middle TN, Arrington Vineyards proved once again to be an amazing place for a get together! Neither wind nor rain could stop these ladies from getting together to say farewell to a dear friend.

Amy contacted me to help her get this party together, and I was delighted to do it for such a sweet lady! She wanted something "fallish" and done in blues and browns. She really just wanted something truly unique and special for her friend to show her how much she has meant to Amy. Not only did we have fun putting it together, we also did an "extended" wine tasting to determine the best wines for the event! If you haven't tried AV's wines, you are missing out!

The girls enjoyed their wine with a boxed lunch prepared by Amy's personal friend, and packaged in boxes from Nashville Wraps. Centerpieces were done by yours truly, and the gorgeous wine glasses came from World Market (only THE BEST new store in Nashville!).

Go check this place out! Unfortunatly, it's not availible as a wedding venue, but maybe someday! In the meantime, it's a great place for a shower or maybe a bridesmaid's luncheon. Bring your own food, and buy wine there, and you are in for a great time!

Amy- thanks for getting me out for my first event since baby Olivia came!! And here's a new picture for anyone who cares to see.....!

6/14/08 Wedding Recap

Here are some official pictures from the gorgeous Tuohy/Milburn wedding held at the Bellemeade Plantation! These go along with the "unofficial" pics from yours truly, of which I am sure you can tell which are mine!

After a rather warm, but beautiful ceremony in the gardens, the guests enjoyed some wonderful Southern food and plenty of drinks to the sounds of Johnny T and Due South. The band kept the party hopping until the very last minute that we were allowed in the venue. Janet, with Draping Designs, staged an amazing reception site with flowing white fabrics draping all of the entrances, the dancefloor, and the outside patio.

Heather and Will were amazing to work with, and even at 34 weeks pregnant, it was one of the greatest weddings I have been a part of!

The "wedding baby" is here!

I just wanted to let you all know that my daughter, Olivia, came into the world on Thursday July 31 at 12:48 am! She weighed 7 pounds 4 ounces and is 20 inches long. She is a wonderful baby and we could not be happier!! I was secretly pleased to see that she has red hair like her mommy!

Please do not hesitate to continue to call or email with wedding issues/questions/inquiries. I am more than happy and ready to work on your weddings, baby or not! She is very accomodating and after accompanying me to numerous weddings while still an "inside" baby, she loves them just as much as I do! Also, Christina will be availible to come to vendor meetings and such for these first few weeks, as I recover from the c-section.

Thank you to the FABULOUS Evan Baines! These pics are so elegant to say the least! He really has a unique style and I forone, love it!
