Coral & Poppy Houston Station Wedding - Ashton & Ruddy
This coral and poppy wedding at West End United Methodist Church and Houston Station in Nashville Tennessee was so colorful and cheerful. Photographed by Erin Lee Allender.
I'll say it again, I loved working with Ashton and Ruddy! Ashton is a vet (so of course I liked her) and Ruddy is an engineer so they are obviously super smart. They are also incredibly sweet. Their wedding day rolled around and they looked stunning, their venues were stunning, their florals were stunning, and there was an adorable dog (should I say stunning dog? Or have I used enough adjectives already). It was the perfect storm for me. Ashton and Ruddy were married and the West End United Methodist Church in Nashville, TN. Their reception followed at Houston Station. I was fortunate enough to get to work with some of my favorite people – Stunning Events (Planning and Design), Brocade Designs (Florals and Design), Bright Event Productions (Lighting), Dulce Desserts (Cake), Southern Events Party Rental, Visual Elements (Drape), Studio BBC Salon (Hair and Makeup) and Flavor (Catering). Please enjoy this bright and beautiful wedding!
Classic Scarritt Bennett Wedding - Heather & Dan
Heather and Dan's Classic All White Flower Wedding at Scarritt Bennett and Country Music Hall of Fame photographed by Erin Lee Allender in Nashville, Tennessee.
Heather and Dan were married at Scarritt Bennett in May of 2014. Their reception followed at the Country Music Hall of Fame. It was an elegant and classic wedding that centered around the bride and groom and their families. There were lots of happy tears and the bride and groom looked at each other adoringly all day. Heather just radiated happiness and Dan was stunned by Heather. This wedding contained some of my favorite candids that year- the photograph of Heather crying when she showed her dad the veil that her mom painstaking hand beaded, the photograph when the doors opened and the light from the chapel hit Heather’s face and she began to walk down the aisle towards Dan, and the photograph of Heather’s mom crying while watching Heather and her dad dance. Like I said, lots of crying. The night ended with an exit in a horse drawn carriage where we left the guests behind and took night photographs around the city.
Special thanks has to go to the incredible vendors that put this together- Camie Occasions, Enchanted Florist, Country Music Hall of Fame, Scarritt Bennett, Blue Tone Music, Dessert Designs by Leland, and Matchless Transportation.
