Best of 2012 | Bridesmaid Dresses

Here they are, our favorite bridesmaids dresses of last year! Clearly, purple and pink were very popular, and for good reason. I also really loved how so many brides let their bridesmaids choose their own dresses and accessories within a given color palette so that each person could look beautiful and express their own personal style. What a difference that can make! Can’t wait to see what this year brings!

Soft and Sweet | Cait + Joel | October 12

Every wedding that we get to be a part of is a treat for us, but there’s nothing like getting to be host to the marriage of two of your dear friends, and that’s exactly what we got to do last October for sweet Cait + Joel! They have been close friends of mine for years and I was over the moon when they decided to gather their friends and family from across the country here at CJ’s to celebrate the next chapter of their life together. We had a wonderful time, and words can’t say how much I love Jessie Holloway’s amazing documentation of the day. What memories! Enjoy!

Timeless Glamour | Rena + Andy | August 25

We were so excited to glam it up for Rena + Andy’s decadent August wedding, and knew that Paul Rowland‘s photos would more than do justice to the event. I can’t brag on Paul enough – he is simply one of the best photographers Tennessee has to offer! Rena and Andy are such a stylish couple and they knew exactly how to do the Black & White look right, keeping it both timeless and fresh. And I must compliment them on their wedding party – they surrounded themselves with such a fun, supportive group that they were laughing and smiling all day long! I think you’ll see what I mean!

 

Garden Joy | Jessica + Zach | August 10

This marks the 10th (I think!) wedding Jenna Henderson of JHenderson Studios has shot here at CJ’s Off the Square, and she just finds new ways to surprise and delight us with her work! She was the perfect choice to shoot sweet Jessie + Zach’s charming August celebration. Enjoy!

Country Cotton and Wheat | Chantel + Erich | August 18

All I can say is – WOW! Brandon Chesbro does it again. His absolutely beautiful photos of Chantel + Erich’s summer wedding and reception here at CJ’s Off the Square completely captured the fun and joyous occasion! They had such a cute style – I especially love the sunglasses they gave out as favors. As you can see, they were a hit all night long!

Soft Summer Romance | Sarah + Kalin | June 9

Sarah + Kalin were such a fantastic couple to plan with and we were incredibly excited when their wedding day finally arrived. They have so much style and are wonderfully in love. Just a joy to be around – we’ll miss them! Also, it was so good to have Eyeris Photography here at CJ’s again, and you can see why in her lovely photos!

Timeless Garden Party | Laura + Steve | May 19

What a treat we have for you today! When Laura + Steve first visited CJ’s, we connected so well and couldn’t wait to get started planning the perfect garden wedding together. Their style is completely timeless and I knew it would be a night to remember! And of course, with Kristyn and Matt Hogan shooting, I knew the photographs would be as beautiful as the wedding itself. So glad we finally got to work together and we hope it will only be the first of many.

Here are some of our favorite moments – for more visit our Facebook page and their feature on Elizabeth Anne Designs.

Springtime Vintage | Rachel + Wes | April 21

You just don’t find couples sweeter and more in love than Rachel + Wes, and working with them and their designers and friends Lauren & Krista was delightful. As fondly as we remember the big day itself, our jaws dropped when we got to relive it through these photos by Jessie Holloway (who was unknown to us before this wedding, and we are so glad to have found her). It is very safe to say that we want to have her back SOON! Brides, take notice!

Sweet Spring | Gioia + Grant | April 15

Gioia and Grant had a sweet and simple spring wedding for their 75 guests. Planner Crystal Varenkamp did a lovely job using the beautiful champagne and copper tones in this event, and these charming photos by Chris Mullins show just how much fun everyone had. Check out his blog for even more images!

Wedding Style: The Elegant Garden Party

There are some designs that just never go out of style. Case in point – the soft and romantic garden wedding party. This early May event was the perfect blend of pale bridal hues, garden flowers, and the airy outdoors. Beautiful photography by Ulmer Studios. Enjoy!
