Rose Rogers, one of my dearest friends, married 2Lt. Andrew Corbett over Labor Day weekend. The whole weekend was an absolute blast as the wedding party - which consisted of her three sisters, Andrew's sister, and Claire and myself - took care of last minute details. Of which there were few, because Rose has been working so diligently all summer long in preparation for this big day. There were so many unique, handmade things that added such a personal artistic touch to the wedding. Rose made the save-the-dates, the invites, the programs, the aisle runner monogram, name cards, menus, the favors, centerpieces, the bridesmaid's jewelry and clutches, her own jewelry and hair piece, and even be-dazzled her shoes. Check out her Etsy site which offers some of these great accessories [ roserogers.etsy.com ]
The ceremony and reception was held at the historic Union Station in downtown Nashville, TN. The ceremony was beautiful with friends of the couple singing, playing the piano, and reading scripture. A quick "lemonade hour" was enjoyed by the guests out on the patio, despite the tornado warning (ironic right...?!) while the staff of Union Station transformed the ceremony site into the most elegant reception site I've ever seen. (Unfortunately, I was too busy having the time of my life to get many shots of the reception decor). We danced the night away to the tunes of Radio Daze - the same Nashville-based band that made my own reception so much fun.
Rose was a great bride- so stunning and she seemed to enjoy every minute of the day. Claire and I have never had so much fun. There wasn't one dull moment the whole weekend and we were so sad to leave. Thanks, Rose, for letting us be part of your big day - everything was perfect!
Rose added this fabulous touch to the front of the dress -
Bride's Shoes - she added the pearls to the tips
BM's Shoes- HELLO! Right?!
Union Station was an old Train Station - one of the main stops in the South.
And look! The main stops just happen to be the cities the three of us came from! Meant to be.
Some of the BM's clutches -made by the Bride herself.
The Bridal Suite overlooked the ceremony site, so needless to say, there was peeking all day.
Check that hair piece. And the earrings. And the birdcage vail, and the ring. Mad talent.
The color in the next few are much more striking pre-blogger...
Love this cake shot -
The sweet married couples - all within eighteen months. This was the first of the three weddings that all the boys were able to grace us with their presence!
Love you Rose and Andrew - wish you the most happiness in the years to come!
