Traveling Couple: Tennessee Engagement Session, North Carolina Destination Wedding
Wednesday, February 3, 2010
I love this couple’s engagement session. You probably remember me featuring it last summer. I love it because the two look like a jewelry ad - so perfect, so in love. While they look like models, they aren’t. They are real and were recently married in North Carolina.

Family Farm in Tennessee is Perfect Wedding Venue for Family and Friends
Wednesday, October 28, 2009

I love outdoor weddings - if you have the risk tolerance (which I don't) to deal with weather stress. Plus, outdoor/garden weddings are hugely popular. Who doesn't appreciate the beauty of the natural outdoors?
Here's a great Tennessee wedding that is not only outside (love) but also was held at a family residence (love even more)!.

A Favorite Nashville Wedding: Cool Couple, Red Chucks, Fab Cake, Great Photos
Wednesday, October 14, 2009

I'm a Chuck Taylor aka Converse girl. In the past, Ive had yellow, blue and currently rock black Chucks. I was already in love with this bride's color scheme - red and aqua are super hot, but when I saw the red Converse - I knew the couple was one of my own heart! I see a lot of Nashville weddings and I will say that this one will gone down as one of my favorites for 2009! The details are incredible, the colors pop and the candy bar buffet is sweet! Great job Savannah and Ryan! Good thing you hired a rocking photographer to capture your fabulous wedding memories and details.

Sunday, October 4, 2009

Kristin of Simply Stunning Events just got MARRIED!
If you have followed ABG, you have enjoyed reading "When the Planner Plans" a regular post on ABG by Kristin sharing her wedding planning experience. As such, this was truly an ABG wedding that I couldn't wait to happen! She hired the best wedding team and as amazing wedding photographer (one of the best) I knew it would be well planned, well organized and well designed.
In fact, I have been stalking her vendor's blogs, waiting for pics or video of her wedding to surface and they have! When Kristin returns/settles into married life, she'll give us her full recap but until then...I'll share sneak peeks, courtesy of her amazing wedding photograper and videographer - McLellan Style and 2Duce2 Videography.

Weddings with Reese Shares a Shelby Street Bridge Wedding
Tuesday, September 1, 2009
I always look forward to seeing Weddings With Reese (WWR) wedding because I always hear good things from her brides about her strong execution skills. In fact, she just announced that she is giving away free day of wedding coordination via her blog. If you haven't hired help for your wedding, you need help so this might be your shot! Today, I am glad that she is sharing a Shelby Street Bridge wedding - which many of you are interested in. So, I hope you enjoy!
Guest Post: Weddings With Reese is a Nashville-based, wedding planner.
This wedding was very close to my heart, as Christa is my best friend! So not only was I her wedding planner (of course), I was also her matron of honor. And it was an honor, for sure. Christa is a very chic city girl, and this wedding needed to reflect that. Everything we did was to reflect the true Nashville feel.

Real Wedding Week: Nashville Couple’s Destination Wedding
Sunday, August 23, 2009
Today's wedding isn't a Nashville wedding (surprise, surprise). But, the couple recently moved Nashville and decided to have a destination wedding in Ecuador. Because we have some of the greatest photographers around, they hired Myrick Studios, a Nashville wedding photographer, to accompany them! (Please visit his site for larger, high resolution wedding images.)
Their wedding was all about family, vibrant color and family. I learned so much about weddings in their culture. I hope you too will enjoy this international, destination wedding - a first on ABG!

Real Nashville Wedding Story: Kimberly and Giles
Monday, July 13, 2009
Kimberly and Giles recent got married and I love that they focused on what was most important to them vs. wedding traditions. Their wedding is why I love sharing Nashville weddings. They are a great example of making your wedding yours. For instance, they didnt have a bridal party. They took pics before the wedding and shared special moments together in doing so. They also had the wedding at their home - a new trend that I love! It was 100% uniquely them - down to their Cracker Barrel catering!
While their style may not be yours - I do hope that their desire to focus on the true meaning of their day - a day of love and family - inspires you to search within to do the same.

Real Nashville Wedding: Allie and Brandon
Thursday, July 9, 2009
I am delighted to feature Allie and Brandon's Nashville wedding. Allie has been an ABG bride for a very long time - like 18 mths+. She attended my 27 Dresses party in Jan of 2008 and we sat together during the movie. We had a great time. She is one of the sweetest, cutie pies you will ever meet.
So, when McNeal Video sent me her wedding to feature, I simply couldn't wait to see and share all of the details.
Brandon - you must be special bc I know that Allie is. I pray the two of you will be forever happy.
Thank you for letting me share your wedding and for being a part of the ABG community.
