The Factory of Franklin Wedding of Emily & Josh Part-2

I loved that the bridesmaids wore hot pink peep-toe pumps with their lime green dresses.

After the ceremony we moved all the guest into Jamison Hall for the reception. Nashville Event Lighting set the room beautifully with lots of uplighting, a gobo, and string lights.

The first dance was perfect with the gobo! Nashville Event Lighting created a custom gobo, that matched their invitations and wedding decor. Emily and Josh created a slideshow of images of them growing up to be displayed as a backdrop throughout the night.

As a surprise to Emily, Josh booked Photo Booth Nashville for the reception. Guest really enjoy having the photobooth there with all the props, and Emily was really surprised!

For the table decor, we added a black and white damask runner with a tall vase submerged with a orchid and floating candle. Very simple, but still elegant.

Itty Bitty Cake shop created their wedding cake for them and it turned out perfect!

I truly enjoyed working with Emily and Josh and everything turned out very beautiful.

Alternate Groomsmen Shoes Options

I love when couples add a different flair to the groomsmen attire, especially with the shoes. I have heard so many times, groomsmen complaining about their rental shoes being uncomfortable. So putting your groomsmen in shoes that they can wear again and are comfortable in, I think is a great idea.

I think that Converse has become the most popular alternate shoe options, I like when couples choose colors that match their wedding decor.

I love how these groomsmen wore the same shoes, but changed up the shoes laces.

Don't be afraid to step out of the box with your groomsmen shoes, they should look stylish too!!

The Factory of Franklin Wedding of Emily & Josh Part-1

I had the pleasure of working with Emily and Josh to plan their wedding at The Factory in Franklin. They were a great couple that wanted more than anything for their guest to have a good time. Emily's good friend and photographer Cody Emberton was their photographer for the day. Cody really captured some amazing shots!!

One of Emily's bridesmaid is a stylist at Eye Candy and did her hair and makeup for the wedding, which I think turned out fabulous. Emily looked so regal!!

We planned for an outside ceremony in the Courtyard, but with the unexpected rain shower, we quickly moved the ceremony inside to the Commons Area.

A Village of Flowers created the bridal parties flowers. I love working with them!

Monogramed Handkerchief for Bridesmaids Bouquet

I love anything custom and personalized for weddings. So when one of my brides saw a picture of some bridesmaids bouquets wrapped in personalized ribbon, we had the idea to monogram a handkerchief and use that to wrap around the bouquet.

Of course, Esty is the place to go when you are looking for custom wedding items. I found Elegant Monograms a shop to monogram these handkerchief's. 

Since all of her maids are wearing different color dresses, we will have their monogram match the color of dress they are wearing, which is going to look great. It's a great special touch and gift for your bridesmaids after the wedding.
