Nashville Wedding Video : Tara + Jeffrey

Tara and Jeffrey met on a Sunday afternoon in Nashville. Tara was standing with a group of friends, and Jeffrey popped over to test out a cheesy pick-up line on this beautiful stranger. Bold move, Jeff! - but it worked. They started chatting and never looked back. 

Fast forward to another weekend afternoon. Jeffrey’s taken Tara to Fido for coffee to recreate the early days of their relationship. They spent the day in the spot they once spent countless hours talking before Tara’s night shifts began at Vanderbilt. When they returned home to freshen up for a Kenny Chesney concert, Tara wasn’t expecting much - maybe a quick outfit change and a snack before the show. Instead, she got the surprise of her life when Jeffrey got down on one knee and asked her to spend the rest of her life with him! She, of course, said yes. 

We love a downtown Nashville wedding, and Tara and Jeffrey’s big day was one for the books! They wanted a classic wedding with a touch of whimsy, and they pulled it off perfectly. The Bridge Building is the perfect spot to throw a fun wedding, with gorgeous views of the river in the background and a rooftop that doubles as a fantastic dance floor - and this crew knows how to dance! Featuring a live band and a ton of glow sticks, Tara and Jeffrey celebrated the start of their lives together with a party we’ll never forget. 

Looking back on their wedding, the happy couple can’t choose just one favorite piece of the day. Everything was perfect, and having the people they love most by their sides to celebrate is something they’ll cherish forever. We’re so glad we got to film this fun day, and we hope Tara and Jeffrey will look back on their wedding video countless times over the years to remember just how special their day was.

Nashville Wedding Video : Linda + Rob

Linda and Rob met through mutual friends, both of whom ended up in their wedding party. But wait - we’re getting ahead of ourselves. In college, close friends Kelley and Steven suggested that Rob and Linda should meet. They did, and they were instantly smitten. They spent the next couple of years falling in love, and when Linda planned a girls’ trip to Texas wine country, Rob spotted the perfect opportunity. He sneakily coordinated a “special tour” with the manager of the final winery stop, and as Linda walked through the vineyard, Rob was waiting on one knee. She was totally shocked, and totally sure that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with this man. After she said yes, they walked out to a celebration with both of their families! 

Rob and Linda wanted the storybook feel of getting married in a church, but they also wanted a rustic, open space to celebrate with friends at their reception. Enter Marathon Music Works, the best of both worlds. Their day was both modern and historic, and perfectly “them.” More than anything else, the happy couple just wanted a day filled with joy and to be surrounded by their closest friends and family, and this wedding certainly delivered - it was a blast!

We loved working with Rob and Linda to create a wedding video that they’ll cherish for the rest of their lives. Linda was kind enough to say this about their wedding day: “Matt is positive, encouraging, and calm! We felt so comfortable, and never noticed we were being filmed. Whenever something sweet or fun happens, Matt captures every second, but you wouldn’t notice him unless you looked for him. His laid-back and kind personality makes him perfect to be around on the wedding day.” Cheers to you, Rob and Linda! Wishing you two many, many happy years together.

Nashville Wedding Video : Kelly + Brandon

Kelly and Brandon actually met during a job interview process - a mutual friend suggested that they “meet” over the phone, and after an hour-long phone call, they knew an instant connection was happening. In the midst of dating bliss, Brandon took Kelly on a trip to Chicago - one of their favorite cities! As they strolled down North Avenue Beach, he dropped to one knee and asked her to join his world forever. She said yes. Brandon even had a photographer ready to snap some engagement photos in a few of their favorite Chicago spots!

This happy couple wanted their wedding to feel special, but not stuffy - more like a fancy dinner party with friends than a stiff, formal event. The Cordelle was the perfect spot for a fun, family-friendly day. Their day was light-hearted and filled with depth at the same time, and the room was filled with love from their families and close friends as they joined their lives together. 

Looking back on their wedding day, Kelly says she’ll never forget Brandon’s face when she walked down the aisle - her favorite moment of the whole day. We also loved the unique ways the couple involved Brandon’s son Rylan in their big day, and having him included in their vows was a sweet family moment. We loved working with Kelly and Brandon, and we wish their new little family all the best for a lifetime to come.

Nashville Wedding Video : Stephanie + Jake

You know the story. Boy meets girl… or in this case, girl’s mom on a plane. Stephanie and Jake’s story has one of the best beginnings of all time. On a flight to Nashville, Jake helped a lady stow her carry-on bag, they started to chat, and she mentioned that he might love her daughter. Jake left his business card with Stephanie’s mom — and after a few months, Stephanie finally looked him on a social media and sent him the message that really started it all. They became friends for a few years, and in 2016, they started dating and never looked back. 

On a vacation to the couple’s favorite spot in Oregon in 2018, Jake planned the ultimate surprise. Even on a 30 degree day on a snowy mountain, he managed to warm Stephanie’s heart with a hilarious, endearing moment on one knee — and of course, a beautiful ring didn’t hurt in sealing the deal, either.

The couple chose the Noelle hotel in downtown Nashville as their venue to say, “I do,” and they created a fun Gatsby theme to play up the hotel’s art deco style. Their cascading flowers and vintage touches were perfect. After an intimate ceremony, sharing vows in front of their family and friends, Stephanie and Jake headed down to the hotel’s speakeasy for some one-of-a-kind photos and an amazing reception.

Stephanie admits that she was nervous about having a wedding video — the fears of your day being portrayed as cheesy are real! — but looking back, she says it’s one of the best decisions she made for her wedding day. Having professionals on hand to wrangle the wedding party, catch those tiny special moments, and capture the best day of their lives was an addition Stephanie and Jacob are really grateful they chose. We’re so glad they did, too! We wish them all the best in their new chapter of lifelong love.

Nashville Wedding Video : Jamie + Jeff

Jamie and Jeff met on Vanderbilt’s campus, but their friendship blossomed while studying abroad in the south of France. They returned home for their junior year, and their friendship changed into something more. The two were inseparable from then on! After seven fun years of dating, Jeff took Jamie on a Breckenridge ski trip. Little did she know, tucked inside his ski jacket was the ring of her dreams. On their last run of the day, he asked Jamie to stop and “take a selfie,” but instead, he slipped to one knee and asked her to marry him. Right in the middle of the quiet ski run, she said yes - and they headed down the mountain to find her family waiting to celebrate! 

Jamie and Jeff woke up to a rainy wedding day - but they couldn’t have been more pleased. Their day was romantic, candlelit and cozy, and the weather added the perfect touch. Gorgeous florals, velvet accents, and beautiful candles set the mood for this beautiful Cannery Ballroom wedding. 

This wedding was gorgeous, as you can see, but it was also FUN! We quickly found out that this crew knows how to dance - from the bridesmaids’ dance party before walking down the aisle to the flower girl tearing up the dance floor at the reception. The evening was also full of love, with touching toasts and friendly hugs all around. 

Jamie and Jeff weren’t sure if they even wanted a wedding video until the last minute, but looking back on it now, they’re so grateful they made that call - and we’re so glad we answered. We worked with the happy couple to make filming a stress-free, fun process, and we know they’ll be able to cherish their wedding day memories for a lifetime. Cheers to you, Jamie and Jeff!

Nashville Wedding Video : Sharon + Thomas

Sharon and Thomas met at work in the heart of New York City, and they bonded over their love of Central Park. Their relationship blossomed as they walked those pathways through so many seasons, so it was only right that Thomas proposed on one of their favorite hills in the middle of the park. After Sharon said yes, he suggested that they celebrate with a drink at The Boathouse. She walked in to see her family waiting there for her! Thomas had flown them into the city to celebrate - the perfect ending to a beautiful proposal. 

Sharon and Thomas wanted a classic wedding that didn’t feel fussy, and they wanted to leave plenty of room for fun! The Benton Chapel was the perfect backdrop for a special ceremony that the couple truly made their own, all while honoring timeless traditions. The outpouring of love from their families was something special, and we loved getting a front row seat to their “I do”s - and to their dance moves at the reception! 

Sharon recently emailed us to say, “During wedding planning, someone told me that despite being surrounded by all your loved ones on your wedding day, the people you actually spend the most time with (other than each other) are the photographer and videographer. We were super happy to spend the day with you and are thrilled with the excellent job you did.” We loved spending the day with you, too, Sharon and Thomas! It was a blast to capture all the highlights from your special day, and we hope you’ll love looking back on your wedding for years and years.

Nashville Wedding Video : Hanna + Fran

Hanna and Fran met in college at The University of Tennessee. After graduation, their jobs landed them in Nashville and they’ve loved growing up and falling deeper in love in this city. On their 3rd anniversary, Fran took Hanna to Centennial Park for a walk before dinner at Maggiano’s, where they had their first date. He got down on one knee overlooking the beautiful pond, and friends were hiding nearby to snap photos as Hanna said yes! After dinner, Fran had one last surprise for Hanna - both of their families, along with a handful of dear friends, were waiting at the L27 rooftop bar to celebrate their engagement!

Fran and Hanna wanted a classic southern wedding, and the Nashville elegance of Riverwood Mansion was the perfect spot to bring their dreams to life. Their wedding was rooted in family, with special touches from their parents, including Hanna’s family wedding gown, sprinkled throughout the day.

Of all the special moments from their first day as husband and wife, the couple most remembers cutting the cake, looking out at all their loved ones gathered in the same space, and being overjoyed at just how perfect their day was.

We loved working with Hanna and Fran! Customizing their video package to include aerial footage and other unique shots to perfectly capture their dream wedding was a blast for us. We’re wishing them a lifetime of happiness together!

Nashville Wedding Video : Sam + Clay

Sam and Clay went to rival colleges in the same town, and their paths finally crossed at a local hangout spot, Rodeo Bob’s. Clay knew Sam was the girl for him, and he finally convinced her to go on a double date with two of their closest friends. Soon after, she fell for Clay, too - and four years later, on a trip to Nashville on Sam’s favorite holiday (it’s Halloween!), he proposed. Of course, she accepted, and they set about planning their dream day to say “I do.”

This happy couple wanted a rustic fairytale wedding that was laid-back and fun - for the two of them, of course, but also for everyone in attendance! Sam and Clay knew it was a special gift to have all of their favorite people in one room, and they wanted to give them a party to remember.

The ceremony at Owen Farm was meaningful and magical, and family and friends surrounded them as they promised their lives to God and one another. In fact, the love of family was all over this wedding - Sam and Clay’s moms worked together to make the wedding cakes, Sam’s aunts provided floral arrangements, and Clay’s aunt made all of the cupcakes! Sam wore her mom’s diamond necklace and Clay carried his late grandfather’s ring and pocket knife with him, a special tribute to the lives that have shaped their own.

This was a special wedding, and we’re thrilled that we got to play a role in bringing their magical day to life. Joe and Luke loved shooting for Sam and Clay, and we know they’ll can treasure their video and their wedding day memories for a lifetime.

Nashville Wedding Video : Briana + Patrick

Briana and Patrick met in school, both studying to become anesthesiologists. Just a few days before her 30th birthday, Patrick told Briana he had a surprise for her. She assumed it would be a birthday gift, but when the car started to drive her “down memory lane,” stopping at their first date spot, the place they first kissed, and the place they exchanged “I love yous” for the first time, she knew something big was in store.

Patrick got on one knee on the walking bridge, and Briana, through tears, said yes! They walked to grab dinner, where a dozen friends were waiting to celebrate, including her best friend from Asheville! Patrick had pulled off the perfect surprise, and he’d even recorded it all with a GoPro, so Briana could look back on it forever. (As videographers, we approve of this, of course.)

The happy couple wanted a rustic wedding, one part fairytale and two parts fun! The ceremony was filled with gorgeous details, but when Briana and Patrick think back on their wedding, they remember the people who were there to celebrate with them most. Briana’s bridesmaids reminded her throughout the day to soak in every moment. Patrick lost in rock paper scissors, so Briana got to shove cake in his face. And the dance floor is where this couple really shone - they look back and laugh about how much fun they had breaking it down with all of the people they love most. We loved capturing Briana and Patrick’s wedding day, and we loved getting to know them, too! We know they’ll look back on this day with joy forever.

Nashville Wedding Video : Anna + Brock

Anna and Brock met at a concert in Nashville in 2015. Anna asked Brock to take a picture of her friend group. They started chatting, and the rest was history. Just a couple of months later, they began dating. A year after that concert, Brock got down on one knee in Anna’s home and asked her to marry him. It was a simple, but sweet proposal, and after Anna said yes, they spent the evening sharing the good news with their family and friends!

When Anna and Brock started planning their wedding, they didn’t have a “theme” in mind - they just wanted the day to feel like them. Carnton Plantation, with its gorgeous outdoor setting and classic atmosphere, was the perfect place for this couple to exchange I do’s. Surrounded by friends and family, they pledged their lives to God and to one another.

Looking back on their day, Anna and Brock just can’t pick which moments they loved the most! It was a perfect wedding from start to finish. We’re so glad they chose us to video their special day, and they loved having a videographer they hardly even noticed through the ceremony and reception! We hope they can look back on their video with happy memories for decades to come.

Nashville Wedding Video : Kylie + Derrick

Kylie and Derrick met at culinary school, and immediately fell hard for each other. In the six years since, they’ve become quite the dynamic duo - they even own three restaurants together! On Kylie’s birthday, Derrick got her family together and concocted a plan. When they arrived in San Diego for her birthday getaway, she walked into the room to find rose petals everywhere, along with a sign that read, “Will you marry me?” She said yes, of course - and then her family jumped out from their hiding spots to celebrate!

Kylie and Derrick chose Mint Springs Farm for the rustic chic wedding of their dreams. They’ll never forget the special moments during their ceremony - Derrick’s face when Kylie walked down the aisle is a favorite - or the ease and relaxed pace of the day. It was truly a special celebration of their love for one another, with great dancing, a fireworks display, and great food, of course.

We’re so glad we got to work with this wonderful couple to capture their wedding on video! Their love for one another was easy to capture, and we hope this video sparks all their favorite memories from the day for the rest of their lives.

Nashville Wedding Video : Jenna + Shane

Jenna and Shane met during their freshman year of college at Vanderbilt. There was an immediate spark, but it took another year and a James Bond-themed party to officially bring them together. Shane went as Jenna’s date, and they never looked back!

One Saturday morning, Shane and Jenna were headed to brunch downtown, and when Jenna got a text that their friends were running late, Shane suggested they walk along the river's edge to pass the time. To Jenna’s shock, he got down on one knee with the Nashville skyline in the background and popped the question! Turns out, their friends weren’t late - they were part of the scheme. Incognito photographers were even nearby to capture the moment. After Jenna said yes, Shane brought her to the George Jones Museum rooftop, where she found family and friends waiting with champagne to celebrate!

The happy couple wanted a classically elegant wedding, filled with all the details that make Nashville unique. From riding a trolley with their entire bridal party to hosting the reception at the Country Music Hall of Fame, the day was filled with Music City moments.

Looking back on their special day, Jenna and Shane really remember the “firsts” best - their first look, first dance, and family dances are all highlights of their joyous celebration. They also loved all the fun moments, including a football garter toss and late night hot dogs! We had a blast shooting this Nashville wedding, and we’re so glad Jenna and Shane love their wedding video! We wish this couple many more adventures around their city in the years to come.

Nashville Wedding Video : LeeAnna + Elias

Leeanna and Elias actually met on Instagram - a true modern day romance. They connected online through mutual friends, and soon, Elias was making a road trip to meet Leeanna in person. They hit it off immediately, and months of dating via FaceTime eventually led to Elias moving to be near his lady. Before a concert one evening, he asked Leeanna if she’d like to take a walk around the park. To her shock, he got down on one knee and asked her to marry him! After an elated “yes,” they continued down the path, where her family was waiting to celebrate.

Elias and Leeanna wanted a timeless southern wedding, so they chose the historic Potter Farm as the perfect venue for their special day. Every moment was filled with faith and family, and even included special moments to honor Leeanna’s dad, who had passed away shortly after the couple got engaged. Looking back on their day, the couple especially treasures their first look together, having a moment to take in all their emotions, and the thoughtful moments their families created for them throughout the day. The ceremony was beautiful, and the reception was a joyous celebration. We’re so glad we got to shoot this special day for Elias and Leeanna, and they’re excited to have those priceless moments captured to share with their family down the road. We wish them a long and happy life together!

Nashville Wedding Video : Meg + Nate

Meg and Nate met in graduate school at the University of Tennessee. Near the end of a spring semester, some mutual friends of theirs threw a Cinco de Mayo party. They met over guac and quest (the perfect way to meet someone, really), and they connected right away. Nate asked Meg on a date the very next day. After a long hike in Knoxville, they knew this relationship was a good one - and they’ve been together ever since.

On Christmas Eve, Meg and Nate went on a morning hike at Radnor Lake in Nashville with his family. It’s one of their family’s favorite traditions, and she was excited to join in, but she never could’ve guessed what was about to happen! As they walked by the beautiful lake, Nate pulled out a ring and dropped to one knee - and Meg said yes to the best Christmas present ever.

The happy couple chose Mint Springs Farm for their special day, knowing that it would give them that timeless, classic feel while still bringing in casual outdoor elements that they both love. They knew they wanted to get married outside, surrounded by lush greenery. They loved every moment of their wedding day, and they were overwhelmed with joy and gratitude at the crowd who was there just to honor them and celebrate their marriage. But looking back, their favorite moments were actually those away from the crowd. Sneaking away between the ceremony and reception to take photos and just be with one another for a few minutes is something they’ll never forget.

Meg and Nate wanted a video that would capture the casual and classic vibe of their wedding day, and we’re so glad they chose us to do it. We love how their wedding video turned out, and we wish them all the best in their new life together!

Nashville Wedding Video : Katherine + Carter

Katherine and Carter met in high school, and knew right away that they wanted to spend their lives side by side. They dated through high school, college, and grad school! On a trip home to Charleston, where Carter is from, he surprised Katherine with a romantic walk down the waterfront park. As she took in the rolling waves and the beautiful sights, he turned around and got down on one knee. She’d always known that when this moment came, she would say yes to Carter - and that’s exactly what she did!

Their Nashville wedding on June 9th was beautifully understated, full of gorgeous neutrals and classic details. Their day was filled with joy from start to finish. Even before the wedding, their bridesmaids and groomsmen were a blast, laughing and celebrating what was ahead. Looking back on their day, their favorite moments were on the dance floor, knowing that they could dance the night away with all of their favorite people before heading off to a brand new life together.

Katherine and Carter are a great couple, and we’re honored to have been able to shoot their wedding day. They loved having a videographer who captured the moments without standing out too much in the crowd, and we loved getting to capture every little moment for them to look back on forever.

Nashville Wedding Video : Carly + Wilson

When Carly first moved to Nashville, she headed to a party at a friend’s house, hoping to meet some new friends. She tried to arrive fashionably late, but ended up being one of the first party guests, along with a guy named Wilson. They began chatting - and they never stopped. Wilson called her the next week to ask her on a date, and they connected right off the bat.

One morning, Carly headed to the barn to ride her horse, knowing she was going to spend the day with Wilson later on. When she returned home, a picture and a poem were hanging on her front door - the start of a scavenger hunt! The clues led her all around Nashville, ending in Sevier Park with Wilson down on one knee. As soon as Carly said yes, their parents joined them in the park for a spontaneous celebration!  

Carly and Wilson’s wedding was bright, summery, and fun. They wanted to have an elegant but casual celebration with lots of personal touches, including horse shoes as escort cards and custom cocktails named after their alma maters. After a beautiful ceremony with handwritten vows and gorgeous flowers, the happy couple headed to the dance floor, where they stayed all night long!

This wedding was an absolute blast, and we loved capturing it on video. Carly and Wilson wanted a video team that would blend professionalism with personality, and we’re thrilled that they have footage that will take them back to that special day anytime they want.

Nashville Wedding Video : Tayler + Max

Tayler and Max met in middle school, started dating in high school, and never looked back. They just knew they’d found the one. After nine years together, the couple decided to just do small gifts for Christmas. Tayler got Max a Tennessee Vols ornament. Max got Tayler an engagement ring. It have have technically fit the bill for a “small gift”, but it was the very best gift of her life!

When Tayler and Max tied the knot on May 19th, they chose Graystone Quarry as the perfect venue - elegant, but easygoing, with beautiful views to boot. The day was filled with love from start to finish. When the couple looks back on their perfect day, they remember so many perfect moments - sweet ones, like Tayler’s dad when he saw his girl in her wedding dress for the first time, and funny ones, like the dance moves some of their guests busted out at the reception. They thought they’d be nervous on the big day, but they looked at each other as the ceremony closed and whispered, “That was perfect.”

We thought the day was perfect, too - and we’re so glad we got to be a part of it! Max and Tayler loved that our video team made the process comfortable, knowing we’d capture their day without encroaching on their time or space. We’re so happy for you two!

Nashville Wedding Video : Brooke + Cannon

Brooke and Cannon met at a fundraising auction in 2015. As soon as Brooke walked in, Cannon knew he’d found a special woman. As the prizes were being announced, he leaned over and said, "If I win this brunch, will you go with me?" She responded, “Sure.”Cannon didn’t win the brunch - but ultimately, he won the girl. The couple started dating a few weeks later, and the rest was history.

Sixteen months later, Brooke and Jason headed to “meet some friends” near the monuments in DC. But to Brooke’s surprise, there were no friends at their meeting spot - just Cannon, one one knee, with a ring. She said yes, of course! The happy couple headed to The Dubliner, where friends and family were waiting with open arms and plenty of champagne!

When Brooke and Cannon were searching for the best location for their dream wedding, Nashville, with all its energy and heart, was a perfect fit. The Cordelle’s beautiful wood floors, aged original brick, iron elements, and southern style deck set the perfect stage for a November ceremony. The couple added a personal touch to every aspect of the day - from candlelight and greenery to incredible food and cornhole on the lawn. They even ordered late night pizza during the reception!

Looking back on their special day, Brooke and Cannon remember the entire day exploding with the support and kindness of all those they love most - and their love for each other deepening with every moment. They remember the morning storms clearing for the perfect outdoor afternoon wedding, and savoring every moment they got to be together, just the two of them, in the midst of their crazy and wonderful day. Brooke and Cannon are so much fun, and we loved getting to capture their wedding day. Cheers to the happy couple! We wish you many more years of adventures to come.

Nashville Wedding Video : Emery + Marshall

Don’t be surprised if Emery and Marshall’s story becomes the next great romantic comedy in Hollywood. It goes a little something like this: Girl moves to a new town, doesn’t know a soul, and runs out of gas. She heads to the nearby dog park with her goldendoodle, hoping to find a friendly face. Girl meets boy, who happens to have a pup, too, of course. The dogs become best friends - and the people? They fall in love.

Marshall and Emery’s love story only grew as time passed, and when Emery had to head to a new city for six weeks for job training, Marshall planned a special date before she left town. On the date, he seemed nervous. Emery didn’t know what was going on with him - that is, not until he got on one knee in the Oklahoma City botanical gardens and asked her to marry him. She said yes, of course, and they headed to the restaurant, where both of their families were waiting!

Emery and Marshall chose her grandparents’ home for their wedding day, transforming their backyard into a stunning secret garden. It was the perfect backdrop to an intimate ceremony with those the couple cherishes most. Emery loves remembering Marshall’s face as she walked down the aisle, and all the butterflies hidden in the wedding day decor - special nods to her father, who had passed away a few years prior. Emery’s mom even surprised the couple with their favorite painter at the reception, who painted the gorgeous scene as they swayed to their first dance. Working with Emery and Marshall was such a dream - even though they said they barely noticed our cameras all day! - and we’re excited to give them a video that will help them relive their magical day forever.

Nashville Wedding Video : Cecilia + Ronnie

Cecilia and Ronnie met at Gold’s Gym and quickly fell for each other. After two years together, the couple took a trip out to Denver to visit Cecilia’s sister. Since it was her family trip, she didn’t suspect much - but after a beautiful hike up St. Mary’s Glacier, she turned around to see Ronnie down on one knee. She was surprised, but of course, she said, “Yes!”

At East Ivy Mansion in Nashville, Tennessee, Cecilia and Ronnie tied the knot in a whimsical, elegant outdoor ceremony. Looking back on March 31, 2018, they remember their vows as the sweetest moment of their perfect day - filled with emotion as they got to make their commitment to one another with the support of so many people they both love.

They danced the night away in a garden sprinkled with hanging lanterns - a perfect end to a beautiful day. We really loved being a part of this one, and we’re wishing the happy couple a lifetime of love!
