A Flower-Filled Celebration Where Every Detail Was Made for the People They Love Most

Madison and Ben’s pink blue and orange and yellow wedding

Our design vision was centered around incorporating color, flowers, and all of the people we love the most. I love anything colorful and have always loved flowers. I knew I wanted exaggerated florals for our wedding through both the ceremony and the reception. I also dreamed of having an outside ceremony with a dramatic aisle to meet Ben at the end. A lot of our design vision focused on our guests in the small details. We had so much fun writing notes to each of our guests for our “Favorite people” wall and helping design our wedding crest dance floor that we could all dance the night away on. Laurie’s team was amazing at perfectly capturing the magic of our vision through the final design!

Ben and I met on the first day of college when I knocked on his door. We became great friends in the first year of school, and our feelings for each other began to grow. Soon after we started dating, I knew Ben was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. About 6 years later, Ben and I took a trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, a very special place to Ben’s family. He took me to a scenic overlook at sunrise and asked me to marry him! It was the best feeling in the world, and it was the most special place to start our engagement!

My gown was designed by Sareh Nouri, and we purchased it from Carrie Karibo Bridal.

My bridesmaid dresses were from Bella Bridesmaid Nashville.

G Catering provided the delicious dining experience.

Florals were designed by T. Villager Florals in Nashville, who perfectly brought our vision to life.

Baked In Nashville made a cake that was equal parts beautiful and delicious!

1. Ben lost his mom before our wedding, and it was very important to us that she was honored throughout our day. Ben’s mom’s favorite color was yellow, and on the morning of our engagement, a yellow warbler visited Ben’s dad and sister as they anxiously awaited for us to get back to the house and celebrate. The warbler was a reminder to us that she was celebrating with us in Heaven, and it felt like the perfect way to include her in our day. We incorporated the yellow warbler in multiple ways through our wedding day so that we and everyone who missed her could feel her presence.

2. Ben and I used my grandparents’ cake topper that my parents also used at their wedding

3. We incorporated our parents and grandparents’ wedding pictures into our day with a “love stories that built us table. We are so fortunate to have so many amazing examples of love and marriage that we wanted to pay tribute to them.
