Real Weddings: Jennifer + Drew

I never get tired of a bride in cowboy boots!  Jennifer and Drew’s wedding was held at Nashville’s gorgeous Cedarwood, and it’s full of relaxed beauty and Southern charm.  Josh and Meg of Souder Photography captured all of the lovely images.

Jennifer and Drew shared their vows in a touching garden ceremony adorned with spring peonies, hydrangea, English garden roses, and wildflowers.

After cocktail hour in the barn, guests were treated to a Tennessee smokehouse barbeque dinner!  The romantic pink and white reception featured burlap table runners, lanterns, fragrant flowers, and a blend of mason jars and candles.

    Inspires me to re-new our vows. So many cute country details!!

  3. So cute! You never think about photos like this until after the wedding day has past.

  4. This wedding makes me miss Nashville! Dusk in the summer is so lovely. Such a fan of all the details: the mason jars, the red truck, the groupings of flowers and candles. Sigh.

  9. This couple is by far one of the most authentic and fun we have worked with. Their spirited ‘first look’ photos are priceless. It was such a pleasure to design this wedding. Thanks for featuring it! Souder Photography did an amazing job capturing the personalities of Jen and Drew, and the beauty of the day. We still love watching the slide show.

  10. Wow, what a great day, the pictures record every exciting moment. Everything looks so cool and fantastic. I quite like her earrings and wedding dress.

  11. I am in love with this wedding! The simplicity in the detail makes it so much more beautiful than how most weddings end up being: overly extravagant/loud.
    Does anyone know the name of the song they used for their slide show? It’s beautiful!
