Good food and drinks, and a fun, laid-back experience for guests were Tennessee natives Stephanie and Drew's biggest wishes for their modern glam wedding at The Bridge Building.
Utilizing a color palette of black, white, gold and silver, the overall vibe was simple and classic with a modern twist.
Stephanie and Drew chose to begin the day with a first look on the Pedestrian Bridge. And their precious chocolate labradoodle pup, Pepper, was also in tow!
A sweet ceremony followed, where Pepper was the flower girl! She totally stole our hearts and was dressed for the occasion in a gorgeous floral collar by LMA Designs.
Soaking up the southern sun, cocktail hour followed on the riverfront where guests sipped the couple's signature cocktails. Stephanie opted for The Sinclair, made with vodka, lavender simple syrup and lemon juice served in a collins glass with a lavender sprig. Drew chose The Buck Stops Here, a mule made with your choice of base spirit, ginger beer and a lime wedge served in a collins glass.
Along with their drinks, guests noshed on an array of light bites like ahi tuna baskets, fried green tomatoes, hot chicken sliders and prosciutto-wrapped melon.
After mixing and mingling, the bride and groom made their first entrance as husband and wife. They danced to "You Are The Best Thing" by Ray LaMontagne. Dinner stations were opened shortly after. Guests enjoyed a trio of salads, mashed potatoes and assorted grilled flatbreads stations.
And in honor of fall and its upcoming festivities, the couple opted for a chef-carved roasted turkey breast station served with a cranberry praline glaze. Oh, how we love fall!
For guests that left room for dessert, a golf-themed cake and matching cake pops were up for grabs in honor of Drew's second love.
This was such a fun group of people! So laid back and everyone had so much fun. We even had a few arcade games for guests to play like Pacman and Big Buck Hunter.
To wrap up, the couple was sent off through a sparkler tunnel onto The Honky Tonk Party Express bus with their entire wedding party. Then they drove around Broadway, complete with "NASH" and "VILLE" hats!
Congratulations to Stephanie and Drew!
