When we first met Rebecca more than a year ago to talk about her wedding, it was just Rebecca, Dan & me. She didn't say a whole lot or ask a ton of questions but the biggest thing I remember about her was that she could not stop grinning the whole time we were talking about her wedding. It was the cutest thing! She literally had a perma-grin she was so excited about being engaged and getting married and it instantly made us fall totally in love with her. 

Then we met Seth when they got up at the crack of dawn for their engagement shoot with us.  Seth is just as sweet as Rebecca and a perfect match for her, and hanging out with them together made us all the more excited about their wedding. Since then, we have met so many people who know & love Rebecca and Seth. So, here is a wedding I was really excited about the whole year leading up to it. And there are certainly many aspects I will never forget. Their wedding had a wonderful Southern feel to it with Jack Daniels Lemonade, fried green tomatoes, corn pudding, a huge wedding party, everything draped in peach & baby blue, and to top it off the band playing Rocky Top as they left the reception, to name just a few things :).

Most importantly though, I will never forget the sweet way Rebecca looked at Seth....or the way that he looked at her like she was the most fun & beautiful person he'd ever met. Or the way they danced the night away... Ah, love!

Rebecca & Seth were married at St. George's Episcopal Church in Nashville and the reception  was held at Cheekwood Botanical Gardens. It was a lovely, lovely wedding and we were so thrilled to be a part of it! 

Here are some of our favorite shots of the day!

She was so excited and it was so fun to be around her all day! Who looks good even when they are getting their hair done? Rebecca!

I love this shot of her sister and mother fixing her gown with the bridesmaids in the background.

Blue & peach -- such pretty colors and you'll be seeing a lot of them. I really loved the bridesmaids bouquets by A Village of Flowers. They looked very "Anthropologie" to me... and y'all know I love Anthropologie. Hey --- this is totally off topic and kind of old news, but did you know that Anthropologie is going to start doing wedding & bridesmaids dresses starting Spring 2011!! So exciting!! You can read a little bit about it here:

We were not allowed to take any pictures in the sanctuary. We were allowed to stand outside the backdoors and shoot through the window. We did get a few far away shots of the ceremony including this one of the kiss.

A few details from the reception at Cheekwood. Instead of just dinner tables, they incorporated lounge areas with couches and bar tables into their layout.

We did some shots of Rebecca & Seth just before the sun went down and it was great light.
