Real Weddings: Jessica + Dustin 9.13.08

I am head-over-heels for today’s wedding, brought to us by the amazing Angela Anderson Photography.  Jessica and Dustin had an absolutely beautiful wedding in Nashville, TN at historic Cedarwood.

A historic mansion + sigh-worthy photography + a bride and groom with impeccable style make for a simply awesome event!

Dustin’s suit was custom created for him by Poncho Rose.  He is so dapper!

Jessica is just so gorgeous!  These shots of her getting ready are great - she looks like she’s truly enjoying herself with her girlfriends!

Check out the awesome blue shoes.  They are made by Report Signature and the electric blue color is just too cool.

I love the unique details on her Valentino gown:

Jessica’s gorgeous headpiece was also handmade by Poncho Rose.

Cedarwood is such a beautiful location - perfect for any couple wanting that authentic Southern plantation feel!

“This way to the wedding signs” are some of my favorite things.

Jessica and Dustin incorporated lots of little ones into their ceremony.  Aren’t the flower girls adorable?

The aisles were lined with yellow daisy pomanders.  All of the florals were created by Cedarwood.

How cute is the ring bearer in his red wagon?  The look on his face is priceless and so is that yellow bow tie!

The ceremony was held outside at sunset and this arch is just stunning.

Not a detail was left unfinished, including decorating the rope swing with pink ribbons!

Rice paper lanterns in the couple’s color scheme provided decor…

…and were paired with terrarium details and centerpieces with lemons and gerber daisies.

Custom wine bottle labels are an easy and unique way to personalize the event.

Amy and Angela, thank you so much for sharing Jessica and Dustin’s gorgeous event with us!

E.

we heart your comments!

Looking through the pictures, I was like “Now THAT is the kind of photography I want to aspire to.” Then I realized it was by one of my all-time favorite photographers, Angela Anderson, and it all made sense why I liked this wedding so much. Simply stunning wedding, and Angela did a killer job on it!

I love Dustin’s look! I’ve gotta get me a suit (and some hair) like that!

Hey!!! That’s my BFF’s cousin. The cutie on the swing was my flowergirl too! :) I loved seeing all of those photos. Jessica’s got such style :)

Wow, what a great wedding. I love the flower girls - so cute!

What a great wedding! They look they were having so much fun! Where did they get those custom wine labels? They look a lot like the ones I found at bottleyourbrand.com and I’m curious about whether they’re the same. I love custom wine labels for weddings!

EAD thanks so much for posting one of my weddings! I enjoy following your blog!
Thanks to everyone else for their comments. It was such a fun wedding and couple to photograph!
To those brides looking for a nice Southern spot, Cedarwood in Nashville was a wonderful location and I am already booked for a wedding there again this year!

An amazing wedding. Impeccable details, gorgeous couple, fabulous photography!

We love this blog! Jessica and Dustin are a delightful couple and their wedding was even more spectacular in person! We had a ball working with them and letting our creative juices flow. Amy Campbell is a stellar photographer, and we are thrilled she will be shooting an upcoming wedding at Cedarwood. When in Nashville, look us up!
