Family Mini Wedding
Heather and Bart – November 4, 2023
Heather and Bart had an incredibly fun and heartwarming family mini wedding at Chapel in the Hollow! The chapel was adorned with stunning black and gold fabric, creating a moody and romantic atmosphere that perfectly matched the occasion. Heather looked absolutely lovely in her strapless dress with a short train and an elegant fascinator, adding a touch of vintage charm to her bridal attire. She held our captivating moody floral bouquet.
Bart was dashing in black pants paired with a velvet green suit jacket, and he sported our new moody floral pocket boutonniere, perfectly complementing the theme. Her two wonderful children had the special roles of best man and maid of honor, making the day even more memorable and meaningful. To make it even sweeter, they brought a small cake to cut and were surprised with heartfelt toasts from each of their children.
The day concluded with photos at the field, where the sun brought the Smoky Mountains to life, capturing unforgettable moments filled with love and joy.
From the Bride:
We met online (which we are embarrassed to tell but it is the 21st century) lol. The first date was at a local pizzeria and a downtown stroll in Maryville. Bart proposed to me in front of the kids almost a year ago on 11/11/22. East Tennessee has always been home to me, and we just love the beauty here! We are looking forward to our intimate ceremony with our immediate family and also getting amazing photos!! Fall is both of our fav time of year and hoping to capture some fall foliage in early November. We travel, go to concerts, and movies. A typical date night is grabbing some dinner and listening to a local band or going to the theatre for a concert, comedy show, or movie.
