Brian and Jill chose Chapel in the Hollow for their beautiful fall East Tennessee elopement, and it was nothing short of magical! They dressed the chapel in white fabric with our white florals and lantern package, creating a timeless and elegant backdrop for their special day.
Jill looked stunning in her ivory strapless dress with a ruched medium train and a delicate short veil. Her makeup by Southern Sirens was on point. Brian wore a classic navy suit that complemented the scene perfectly. Before the ceremony, they shared a heartfelt moment by trading gifts on either side of the bridal suite door—he gave her a lovely bracelet, and she gifted him a watch. Jill also brought a gorgeous bouquet from Echelon Florist that added a pop of beauty to the day.
Jill walked down the aisle on her own, and the excitement in Brian’s eyes as he saw her for the first time was unforgettable. After the sweet ceremony, they celebrated with a cake cutting and a toast to their future.
We captured their love in photos at the chapel, by the archway, and along the road before heading to the field with the breathtaking mountain view. The clouds left over from the previous night’s rain created a soft, dreamy light, making everything look lush and inviting.
Congratulations, Brian and Jill! Your November elopement was full of beauty and love, and we were honored to be a part of it.
From the Bride
We met at Brian’s sister (Katie’s) wedding. Katie and I have known each other since college (2008). However, Brian and I never met until 2021, during his sister’s wedding reception. Our first date was a road trip across the country. It was a 3 day drive with stops in Memphis, Amarillo and the Grand Canyon. We were able to spend quality time together in the truck and getting to know each other very well!
Brian proposed to me on a secluded beach in the Exuma Keys, Bahamas. We both love the mountains of Western NC and East TN and decided this was the perfect place to start our next chapter. On our wedding day we are looking for to having an intimate ceremony in the mountains to celebrate our marriage!
We love doing anything outdoors, taking adventurous trips, eating good food and drinking great wine with family and friends. We also enjoy watching football on Saturdays and going to church on Sundays.
