My favorite time of the year is fall... if I wouldn't have had such a long engagement, I would have gotten married in the fall. It's such a perfect time of year, gorgeous tree color, crisp air, cool breezes, and all of these reasons, plus the fact that Amanda and Chad are so in love with each other, made October a perfect time for a wedding at Belle Meade Plantation. Amanda and Chad have to be one of the most in love couples that we have ever had the pleasure to work with! They were constantly kissing each other, smiling, saying " I love you", and everyone that was there to celebrate with them knew it. They began their day with tenderly spoken vows at the Scarritt Bennett Wightman Chapel. Afterwards their guests joined them for food and fun in the crisp, fall air. Enjoy the beautiful pictures taken by the always wonderful Phindy Studios!
Amanda was super lucky in her dress find... Bridal Warehouse.
We saw this smile ALL day!
Chad and Amanda opted to see each other in a private moment inside the chapel, so after the ceremony they could enjoy their party and their guests. I always love to see when couples do this; it relieves stress, sets the tone, and you get to take each other in all alone rather than in front of a large group of people.
The beautiful altar table and draping for the reception was created by Events Plus.
The gorgeous, crisp fall colored florals were created by Vintage Florals.
Delicious Godiva wedding cake chocolates for favors... yummy! I must admit, I think I had two! :)
The beautiful cake, which was inspired by the invitation, was created by Maples Wedding Cakes.
The band rocked the evening! NashVegas All Stars gave us a great "nashvegas" show!
Bacon and Caviar provided the delicious southern comfort foods on the buffet!
The stylin' getaway Jag was provided by Matchless Limo.
Amanda and Chad, we wish you two many, many years of joy! I can truly see you two sitting on your front porch, hand and hand, at eighty years old still very much in love! Best wishes and thanks for the opportunity to work with you!
Happy Planning!
