Katy + Ryan = Rustic DIY Wedding ~ Nashville Wedding Photography ~

Honestly, I have no clue where to begin. I have done several sessions with this family over the past year, and their creative talents have always amazed me. All of our previous shoots have been tons of fun. So, I expected nothing less from Katy's wedding and was eager to see their vision. I didn't know many details other than it was going to have a country chic vibe with tons of  DIY touches.

We started the session at Marathon Village, where their reception was being held. When I walked in, my jaw literally dropped. It was pure wedding yumminess! :) Candles filled the room with burlap cloths adorning the tables. Vintage boxes and signs were placed all around, and the flowers were gorgeous!

Katy put on her beautiful dress. Then, her and Ryan had their special moment at the top of the stairs before we ventured out for some photos. The shots came out fabulous. Marathon Village has tons of character, and the weather was gorgeous. Next, we headed to the site of their ceremony, Eastwood Church. It was a unique and older church in East Nashville. The ceremony was very sweet. Afterward, everyone headed to Marathon Village for the reception.

Seeing it lit up made my jaw drop again! I love the overlook of Nashville through the window. It was such a great atmosphere for the reception! The night was full of laughter, delicious food, and tons of dancing. It was more spectacular than I could have ever imagined. Seeing the love Katy and Ryan share be bonded in holy matrimony was so very special.

K & R: I will always treasure being a part of your special day. I wish you all the happiness the world has to give, and hope you enjoy your honeymoon in Mexico!










 



I had to throw in some of Katy's Bridal Portraits. It has been so hard not to share these before now. Isn't she stunning!?!
