January & February Weddings 2016

Finally in 2016 for our blog! And while I am still SO far behind (It's October, people.), I still think all of our couples deserve a blog post!



January 16, 2016: Jessica & Brad Rose
Jessica & Brad were married at Woodlawn Baptist Church, and their reception was at The Reserve at Bluebird Hill in Knoxville, TN. This reception venue describes itself very well: "From simple elegance to extraordinaire, imagine your wedding or reception in our beautiful hillside venue... The Reserve at Bluebird Hill opened its doors five years ago with the intent of creating lifetime celebrations. As a bride and groom, choosing your wedding venue is one of the most important decisions of the planning process. We offer four different ceremony locations to accommodate your style and guest count. The Reserve at Bluebird Hill offers the perfect location for every bride’s style." The bride wore a GORGEOUS dress. It had a rounded neckline with lace with sleeveless lace covering her shoulders with a keyhole back; the top was adorned with sparkles, with an amazing rhinestone and pearl waist. The skirt was soft and flowing and full. I loved it so much; it came from The White Room in Lebanon, TN. Her bridesmaids wore long dresses in different shades of purple from Alfred Angelo, and the men wore dark grey suits from Jos. A Bank.

Their love story, as told by Jessica:
       "We had known each other throughout college at TN Tech due to mutual friends, but on our group spring break trip in 2012, we really hit it off. My best friend Danica introduced us, and the rest is history. We started dating that summer, I finished my time at Tech, and we moved to GA for jobs. The summer of 2014, we took a family vacation to the same beach that we started our journey. We got engaged the day after my birthday, and he surprised me with having my parents come down so that we could have our family surrounding us! It was the sweetest day I think I've ever had."

Favorite part of the day:
       "My favorite part of the day was just being with those that are closest to Brad and me. We have always been centered around our family and friends and having them there is what made our day so special. I also really loved our Unity cord that we did. It was so unique, special, and meaningful to our relationship with God surrounding us."

We worked with two of our favorite photographers, the couple that makes up Zach and Sarah Photography. You have to check them out to know how fabulous they really are! Here was the sneak peak from the Rose wedding. The caterer was Buddy’s Catering. The wedding cake was tiers of white with different textures, and the groom's cake was TN Vols themed in a TN shape (aaawwweeesssoommmeee); the cakes were made by Sweet Beginnings by Elaine Miller. Overall, Casey had a great time at this wedding. Here is their Intro video!






February 6, 2016: Adrian & Jonathan McGill
Adrian & Jonathan were married at the First United Methodist Church in Cookeville, TN. This church is one of the most beautiful ones in Cookeville, and we have filmed here a few times now. The stained glass and the wood décor on the ceilings are just so elegant and pretty. The men wore handsome grey tuxes with silver ties. The girls wore long charcoal grey dresses with long sleeves, so pretty. Adrian was gorgeous, in a lace covered, fit and flare dress with a high lace neckline; while outside, she wore a white shawl around her shoulders (It was cold, after all!). The little flower girl was darling.They also had a classic get away car that we loved.

Their love story, as told by Adrian:
       "Jonathan and I are from the same home town. We did not know each other well in high school, but knew of each other. At a mutual friend's wedding in September 2014, we saw each other. We were both single and a mutual friend there gave him my number a few weeks later. He called me, and we really hit it off. Our first date was the day before Thanksgiving in 2014, and we were engaged in July 2015. We did not want a long engagement so we set the big day for February 6, 2016. It was the most perfect day we could've ever asked for!"

Favorite part of the day:
       "The first look!"

The wedding coordinator was Bobbye Moore. The photographer was Once Like A Spark - I am so impressed by this photographer! We had never worked with them before, however, the photos from this wedding are so stunning. I especially love her detail shots. Here's a link to the McGill wedding photos. The wedding cake was made by Melanie Greene, the groom's cake was from Ralph's Donuts (some of the best donuts in town!!!), and coffee was from Broast in Cookeville. Here is their wedding Intro! Thank you guys so much for letting us be part of your beautiful winter wedding.
