Intimate Family Elopement – Madison and Aaron

Intimate Family Elopement

Madison and Aaron – October 22, 2023

Madison and Aaron’s intimate family elopement at Chapel in the Hollow was an absolute delight. The chapel was lovingly adorned with elegant cream and textured rust fabrics, accentuated by our beautiful white florals and the simple pumpkin package. Rustic met elegant for a fun fall look.
Madison, the picture of grace, looked radiant in her halter-style satin dress, complete with a mid-length satin train and even pockets – the ultimate bridal fashion win! On the other hand, Aaron was the embodiment of style in a sharp navy suit, perfectly complemented by an aqua tie.
Madison’s sister stood by her side as the lovely bridesmaid, and Aaron’s best friend proudly took the role of the best man. It was a true family affair filled with love and laughter. As Madison prepared to walk down the aisle, her mom and sister played an important role in helping her get ready, a beautiful bonding moment on this special day.
Before the ceremony, Madison and Aaron shared a heartfelt first look in the enchanting forest behind the chapel. It was a moment of pure, unfiltered love and joy. Walking down the aisle with her dad was a beautiful moment.
Following the ceremony, the couple cut a delicious bundt cake, sharing the sweetness of the day with their closest family.
The celebrations continued as they spent time with their loved ones before heading off to their honeymoon in Gatlinburg, creating cherished memories to last a lifetime. Madison and Aaron’s wedding was a beautiful reminder that love, family, and cherished moments are what truly matter.
From the Groom:
We both worked at Food City together. We bonded over annoying retail customers and long shifts. I(Aaron) stocked, and would spend time on break in the food court where Madison worked in the bakery deli. (Taking my breaks there may have been strategic). For out first date we went to play disc golf (romantic right?) and went to Chick-Fil-A after. After we ate, we went to Panther Creek State Park to an area that overlooks a lake and talked.
I(Aaron) did, and we went to the same spot at Panther Creek State Park. We spent time talking and looking at the view of the lake and hills. After that we went to a spot in the road that comes to a circle, in the middle of the circle there is a border that makes a heart. I proposed to her in the center of the heart.
We chose East Tennessee for our wedding because both of our families live there. I am looking forward to becoming husband and wife and getting to spend that special day with our immediate family and closest friends. There is no significance to the exact date we chose, but fall is my favorite season. 
We love going to concerts, going thrift shopping, binging TV shows, gardening outdoors/tending indoor plants, and baking sweets together.
