Crystal & Robert are both engineers living in Pennsylvania, planning a wedding in Nashville, which is no easy task. Their engagement session was preempted by the May flooding, as well as their choice for where to do wedding day photos (Opryland Hotel). Despite these hurdles their wedding day went beautifully, with the help of their wonderful friends and family as well as the wedding planning services of Creations by Debbie. Debbie, her husband Don with Events Plus Nashville, & their team did a wonderful job keeping the day running smoothly.
The venue of the wedding and reception was the Marriott Hotel & Resorts which has a fantastic new area built right off the hotel just for special events. Lindsey, the event coordinator there was great to work with, and the food provided by the hotel was very yummy :)
The couple opted to not see each other before the ceremony and to see Robert’s face as his bride walked down the aisle was priceless – just full of happiness & excitement. The ceremony was tailored to fit the couple and included the couple jumping the broom as they came back down the aisle after they were married.
The toasts at the reception were so emotional & heartfelt, given by their parents and siblings who were all so very happy to see Robert & Crystal so in love & now married. They certainly made me tear up too :) The dance floor was a hoppin’ place helped greatly by the couple’s favorite DJ from Memphis, Rodney “HotRod” Jones. The cakes were so amazing (both the wedding cake & the groom’s cake), done by The French Confection in the couple’s wedding colors.
A beautiful wedding & a beautiful couple, thank you Crystal & Robert for letting me share your day with you. And a big thank you to Anna for second shooting!
Enjoy the preview,
Mandy
