Nashville is known for it’s hot summers, but who knew that a wedding would come from it?! This bride and groom met by the pool in their apartment building. After hitting it off by the water they started dating shortly after. Their intimate wedding at the Cordelle in downtown Nashville was simply beautiful. The chic décor including hundreds of lights and candles, oozing romance throughout the indoor space and the surrounding veranda. The color scheme of burgundy, grey silver and gold went great with the mixed medals on the tables and around the room. The service took place in front of a fabulous string light backdrop, and while guests enjoyed the cocktail area on the porch, the ceremony space was flipped into an elegant reception area. Family and friends dined at long tables in a giant U-shape, which gave the room an open feel. Each place setting had a custom take away: wine glasses branded with the couples’ names and wedding date. With special musical performances thanks to the groom’s job at a country music record label, it was quite the party. A highlight of the night was the massive dessert table, featuring hundreds of specialty donuts from bakeries across Nashville, arranged in a colorful and flavorful display. In lieu of wedding cake toppers, the large donuts in the center were labeled Mr. and Mrs. We wish nothing but the best to the happy couple!

Event Name: Williams/Kelly Wedding

Event Date: August 22, 2015

Event Designers: Julia Page & Sarah Ann Miller

Venue: The Cordelle

When two of your favorite clients have a child that is getting married, then the next step naturally is to plan the wedding for him and his future Mrs.! This is what led us to plan the wonderful union of Meg Williams and Andy Kelly at The Cordelle in Nashville!

From the start, when they met in middle school, these two were lovebirds! They were best friends that shared laughs and days filled with fun! When they both returned to Nashville after college they realized they may be more than “just friends” and a beautiful relationship was formed! The wedding took place on an August 22nd and the outside garden area was set for drinks, fun, and don’t forget a Characteristic to capture all the guests’ smiling faces. The décor was romantic and light, just like the couple. Blush accents were utilized in the florals and drape, but what would a wedding be without a little bit of bling! The linens that were used on the guests’ tables brought in just the right amount of gold glitz to make this day really sparkle! Eric Blue rocked the night away, with a guest appearance from our very own bride, Meg Kelly! When the lights came up and the couple left, they were swept away in a vintage Rolls Royce! A perfect night, for a perfect couple!

Event: Hill & Quaid Wedding

Event Date: June 20, 2015

Venue: The Cordelle

Event Designer: Sarah Ann Miller

More than half of Gwendolyn and Niall’s loved ones flew around the world to be in Nashville on a hot June night to celebrate the couple on the Hill & Quaid wedding! FUN FACT: Whatsapp was the couple’s main form of communication for a long time until they decided to move to the same place.

The bride and the groom made their special day unique by incorporating distinct facts about their relationships in the decor. Gwendolyn wanted a lot of special touches so she brought in gold wine bottled adorned with a classic white single rose for the tables. Simple and elegant was definitely the style of the event. By pairing vibrant reds with black and white stripes we added a bit of color. The guests boogied to the tunes of the Emerald Empire band, and the bride saved the last dance for her grandfather.

Event: Holland & Goodman Wedding

Event Date: July 4, 2015

Event Designer: Sarah Ann Miller

Venue: The Cordelle

What a better way to celebrate the 4^th of July than at The Cordelle for Holland & Goodman Wedding!  Their dream of an English countryside wedding was given life.

Candelabra centerpieces, lush green garland in the center of the tables and gold accents were the perfect finishing touches. The Cordelle’s open-air porch and lawn hosted our cigar bar. As the evening progressed guests were treated to a few of Nashville’s local treats – Las Paletas Popsicles and Christies Cookies as they watched the number one firework show in the United States from downtown Nashville on the front steps of the Cordelle. Can you say amazing?! We absolutely loved working with such a fun couple and wish them all the best.
