Lauren & Chris: The Wedding Planner

ClarksvilleBrides.com Featured Wedding: Lauren & Chris


Lauren and Chris hired Elements Event Planning & Design to help plan and coordinate their wedding day. The bride and groom had a very short time to put together a gorgeous wedding so it was definitely a smart decision to hire a pro! "Lauren and Chris were such a beautiful couple. They came to us with 7 weeks to plan their wedding and it as one of the most enjoyable experiences we have had. Everything came together beautifully for a soft, romantic ceremony at the Trahern Mansion with soft draping, candlelight and flowers. The reception was just as gorgeous with crystal candelabras, crystal banded vases with overflowing flowers and great food,drink and lively music! All this led to a sparkling send off at midnight to start their new life together!!" -Terri Tenholder, Elements Event Planning & Design

Lauren & Chris: The Flowers

ClarksvilleBrides.com Featured Wedding: Lauren & Chris

Lauren and Chris hired Helen's Flowers to create their wedding bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, and ceremony floral decor. "Lauren's bridal bouquet was hand-tied with white satin ribbon and made with white hydrangeas and one dozen white roses.



Her five bridesmaid's bouquets were blush hydrangeas with white roses hand-tied with ivory satin ribbon.


All the boutonnieres for the gentlemen were white roses and the corsages for the mothers, grandmothers and aunt were white, mini-rose wrist corsages.


When the guests entered the Smith-Trahern Mansion there was an all-white wreath to greet them. Also the letters "L" and "C" were moss covered. At the altar at the front door of the Mansion, material had been draped to create a focal point and masses of pink and green hydrangeas, berries, and roses were fashioned to create a tie-back for the draping material. Pink and green hydrangeas were also used on the aisle chairs with fabric sashes." -Helen Morris, Helen's Flowers

Lauren & Chris: The Photographer

ClarksvilleBrides.com Featured Wedding: Lauren & Chris

Lauren and Chris hired Bethany Ann Photography to photograph their wedding day. "I am super excited to share some images from Lauren & Chris’ wedding. You may remember from their engagement session [click here to view their engagement session on Bethany Ann Photography's blog] how romantic I believe these two are. Their wedding day confirmed my beliefs. In addition to their heartfelt relationship, the details of the day also felt entirely romantic with pale pink bridesmaids dresses, flowers, decor, etc. And Lauren’s lace dress, paired with her birdcage veil, seriously melted my heart. It was perfect for her!

Their ceremony...at the historic Smith-Trahern mansion was intimate, with closest family & friends in attendance. When Lauren walked down the spiral staircase toward Chris, the entire room felt at peace. It was a sincere and emotional ceremony that everyone felt lucky to attend. After their sunset ceremony, they had even more family & friends awaiting them at their reception. What a FUN reception it was, too! I believe the guys danced just as much, if not more, than all of the ladies. One of my favorite moments, besides the actual ceremony, was their First Dance. Even in a room filled with people, they didn’t take their eyes off each other." -bethanyannblog.com
