When two architects come together to plan their wedding, you can be sure that there is a beautiful vision in their minds. Such the case with Crystal & Grant – they were drawn to the blend of both historic and modern styles found in CJ’s Off the Square, an art gallery and gardens set in the heart of Historic Downtown Franklin. Candlelight amongst clean lines was to be the design focus, incorporated with the natural colors of a soft sage green and a rich chocolate brown. To create this, square ivory tables were topped with square brown napkins and favor boxes and set with large clusters of sage candles illuminating each center.

The bride walked down the garden aisle lined with rose petals and submerged orchids to meet her groom in front of a gazebo teeming with candlelight. Surrounded by the soft sounds of evening, the couple exchanged vows before an intimate gathering of friends and family.

Crystal & Grant joined their guests for an hors d’ oeuvres buffet before cutting into their Kaluha Chocolate wedding cake adorned with orchids and parrot tulips. A special treat for the groom (and guests!) was a Snickers Ice Cream Cake to complete the cake and ice cream equation. Lanterns were dimmed for a relaxing evening of music and mingling before the bride tossed her bouquet and the newlyweds bid farewell under a shower of rose petals.
