Intimate Tennessee Wedding – James and Jenessa

James and Jenessa – April 22, 2021

Intimate Tennessee Wedding

James and Jenessa were our second intimate Tennessee wedding of the day. They also chose the champagne fabric but paired it with our white florals. Jenessa brought a gorgeous pouf of a veil and paired it with a lovely blush wedding dress. She did a first look with her son, Colt, and he was so excited for it! Southern Sirens created an amazing hairstyle for her — oh so chic.

From the Bride:

We met thru a mutual friend of ours. James decided to message me thru Facebook messenger, and the rest is history.

James proposed. He surprised me with having our son, my twin brother and his girlfriend, who is a good friend of mine out to dinner. We went to Texas Roadhouse. He gave me a card to open and read, followed by the proposal. It was a great night!

We were coming down for a dirt race at Bristol Motor Speedway that weekend. I was interested in having an intimate outdoor wedding, and stumbled upon Chapel in the Hollow. We are truly excited to get married at the venue, and in Tennessee with our family.

I’m most looking forward to taking pictures in the Smokies as a married couple and enjoying ourselves. We can’t wait to experience this and have our special day surrounded by family and our son.

For fun, we spend time with our cats and son. And tend to our garden and be home. We like outdoors and being at the race track.
