Nashville Wedding Recap – Dawn and David

Dawn and David celebrated their wedding with their closet friends and family. Tying the knot downtown Nashville at The Bridge Building, it was the most perfect day.

Getting Ready

Dawn and her bridesmaids got ready all together in a suite at The Bridge Building. Dawn’s dress was a stunning ballgown style silhouette with a layered textured skirt and a beautiful beaded bodice that had a plunging neckline.

Custom wedding sneakers for the win and to match all of the bridesmaids for comfy attire for the wedding day.

Father’s First Look

Dawn and her father shared an emotional moment together for a fathers first look. The moment Dawn’s father, Gary, saw her tears came pouring out!

First Look

Dawn and David’s first look was with their beautiful puppy, Olaf. He made many appearances during the wedding day so, of course he had to be around for mom and dad’s first look together!

These two are so excited to finally be celebrating their wedding day! They truly look incredible.

Bride and Groom Photos

Dawn and David’s beautiful purple accents with slight pops of oranges are stunning choices for their fall celebration! With the beautiful September weather, they looked perfect!

Dawn’s deep v-neckline was mimicked in the back with the same deep v-style. Her hair was a boho-inspired updo with face framing curls and stunning sparkled hair pieces that matched the amazing detailing on her dress.

David’s suit had a subtle plaid print that was the perfect pop for his look to be special. His flower tie tied in Dawn’s flowers wonderfully and of course Olaf’s outfit featured a purple tie with a gray suit and a flower collar. His customized leash that said “I Do Too”.

Just look at this little family, so precious! The backdrops around The Bridge Building offer so many spots for this couple to shine. With the city scape, park, and the pedestrian bridge they look fabulous.

They look perfect under the city of Nashville.

Wedding Party Photos

Dawn and David had a small wedding party with three of their closets friends and family on each side. With their intimate ceremony and reception, this was the perfect size!

Dawn’s girls wore mixes of gray with shades of purple. The girls all looked beautiful and they coordinated well with the color scheme of the day!

The guys, including Olaf, all wore gray suits with a purple tie. With simple boutonnières to tie it all together, these guys looked great!

With Dawn’s custom converse, all of the girls had their matching gray converse as well!

Wedding Ceremony Details

Their ceremony was overlooking the Cumberland river and set with an arch full of greenery, truly stunning. When guests entered, they signed an adorable poster with a illustration of Dawn, David, and Olaf on the wedding day!

Wedding Ceremony Highlights

David and Olaf walked down the aisle first, waiting for their beautiful bride to walk in after them!

Dawn walked in with both her father and her mother to her eager groom, after all they had to wait 2 years to tie the knot!

The kiss seals the deal! They are officially married!

Wedding Reception Details

When the ceremony concluded, guests went onto the patio to enjoy some passed apps and drinks during cocktail hour. The space was flipped into the stunning reception for dinner.

The headtable was lined with candles, white pumpkins, and beautiful flowers that popped perfectly against the dark purple linen. The guest tables had varying centerpieces with a couple of options that displayed candles and bud vases and some others that had pretty bouquets and votives. With a light purple linen and dark eggplant colored napkins.

This room looked absolutely perfect with the sheer white ceiling drape and string lights overlooking Nashville. Truly a breathtaking space to celebrate a wedding.

Each guest had an adorable custom coaster with a thank you from Olaf!

Their cake was decorated with an incredible layered design with the gold, purple and a touch of teal.

Olaf was the star of this cake as the cake topper that read “I Do Too”. The guests had many choices of desserts from Nashville Sweets that were incredibly delicious.

Wedding Reception Highlights

With all of their guests seated, Dawn and David entered into their reception space to “Crazy in Love” by Beyoncé. Cutting into their beautiful cake followed their dinner service.

After their cake cutting, Dawn and David’s friends and family gave the newlyweds toasts to their new adventure!

With the toasts wrapping up, guests moved upstairs to dance under the stars. Dawn and David shared their first dance to “Yours” by Ella Henderson.

Following their first dance as husband and wife , Dawn and her father shared their father/daughter dance to “Here For You” by Neil Young and then David and his mother danced.

Then, it was time to dance the night away! So much fun for all of these guests to enjoy the rest of the evening celebrating Dawn and David!

To conclude the night, Dawn and David had a grand exit with light up wands to exit in their vintage car.

It was such a pleasure to help Dawn and David with their special day, thank you for choosing us! We wish you both the very best!
