Deeann & Loyd were the winners of my wedding giveaway this year, and I am SO happy that I chose them. I went to the Nashville area this last weekend for their wedding & was wowed by the beautiful details that Deeann spent so much time on to make this wedding exactly what she wanted. She is an artist, so I knew it would be amazing, but WOW…. it was totally my style and just gorgeous.
The ceremony & reception were held at their church, Journey, which is in The Factory at Franklin (which is amazing). As I mentioned, Deeann is an artist & created this awesome old door/window combo which hangs along the back of the church (you’ll see it lots further down)… Anyways, I took the liberty to writing their initials in the dirt

She & her bridesmaids carried lanterns instead of flowers… Everything had a unique touch. This necklace was made by her maid of honor, Tally, and features a flower piece from Deeann’s grandmother.
I love the “first look” with the bride’s mom when she first sees her daughter as a bride….
One of the flowergirls was coloring this picture of a princess, which I found all to appropriate for this wedding day.
Speaking of flower girls, I found another one later on like this…. (Sidenote: She found this & started playing all on her own… She’s 2, adorable, and has amazing musicians for parents, so no doubt this picture is just speaking to her future
Deeann, you were a breathtaking bride. The epitome of natural beauty.

Loyd & his groomsmen were such a blast… This photo was (almost) completely unprompted. They’re hilarious.
Guests could “sign/type in” at the typewriter above, and then leave notes to the couple below:
All of the old doors, windows, lanterns, tree branches, and candles gave such a romantic feel.



I followed them as they walked out of the sanctuary to catch this next shot (when “no one” was looking 



These next two are some of my all-time favorites… 


Deeann & Loyd…. I am SO glad you applied for the wedding photography giveaway and know I made the right decision in choosing you. I wish you both all of the best as you move on to exciting changes in the “dirty south”

This last one doesn’t go with our “natural” feeling theme here at all, but it’s so stinking cute I had to share anyways….
