Emily and Brian | Wedding

Emily and Brian are the sweetest couple. They have been nothing but awesome to work with since the first day they contacted me, and their wedding was just as wonderful. They got married in 12 South, which is one of my favorite parts of Nashville, so we were able to get tons of fun pictures at the Hope Center, Sevier Park and 12 South Taproom. Get ready to gawk over Emily’s wedding dress, her Tom’s wedding wedges, plenty of red doors, Hatch Prints, and a fun-filled reception at Marathon Village.

Brian wanted to get pictures with his groomsmen at the Taproom, which proved to be the perfect laid back setting for their pre-wedding hangout.

Emily and Brian didn’t want to see each other before the wedding, so we posed them in front of the doors of the church so they couldn’t see each other.

Best part of the day: getting Emily into my car with her huge/awesome wedding dress and driving down the street with her facing backwards.

Emily’s dad sang the best rendition of “Don’t Stop Believing” that I’ve ever heard. The crowd went wild.
