Sara and Ben- October 10, 2009

Fall is one of the most beautiful times of the year to get married. The weather, especially in Tennessee, is mild and quite often perfect. The variety of color in nature is phenomenal and sets an extraordinary backdrop for photographs and memories. And the flowers, breathtaking.

The beauty of the fall truly set the stage for the union of an amazing couple, Sara and Ben. Married on a crisp fall day in October, you couldn't have asked for more.

Sara and Ben chose the historic Carnton Plantation as the site for both the ceremony and reception of their wedding. We really can not say enough good things about this venue. Beautiful in and of itself, we highlighted the season by placing fall mums and pumpkins at the entrance. Sara chose a beautiful combination of fall flowers for her bridesmaids to carry: vibrant sunflowers, deep purple mums, hypericum berries, antique white hydrangeas, and mango calla lilies.

The two were married in a picturesque ceremony, officiated by nondenominational minister Ralph Griggs, under the shade of the huge tree outside of the Carnton Plantation as beautiful guitar music was played by Rob Higginbotham.

Following the ceremony, the happy couple and their guests celebrated at a reception with food catered by Red Pony in downtown Franklin and a wedding cupcake tower by Wedding Cake Design by Rebecca. In addition to floral designs by Belles Fleurs, the ambiance was created by awesome lighting from Nashville Event Lighting.

It really was a joy to be able to work with Sara and Ben, a couple very much in love. We wish them nothing but the best and thank them for allowing us to be a part of their day!

Randi and Wes- October 16, 2009

This couple was the epitome of happiness. True soul mates. That fact, was undeniable. From the second you meet them, their love for one another is undeniable.


Randi and Wes met through Christian Cafe after having tried other dating venues. What the site resulted in was this match made in heaven. Their first date was at a Starbucks in Hendersonville and also served as the location of the proposal. It was only fitting that the two had their photographer, Evan Baines Photography, capture some shots of them there on the day of their wedding.


Randi knew exactly what she wanted when it came to flowers. She asked for warm colors and fall tones. Very exciting for us because we really believe that there are few things more beautiful than autumn flowers. The colors are so rich and just breathtaking.


With the wedding held at the Spring Haven Mansion, the somewhat cold and rainy weather did not damper any one's spirits. The venue was absolutely picturesque with each detail beautifully executed.



Randi carried a bouquet with an array of fall flowers: hanging amaranthus, orange red protea, mango calla lilies, circus roses, miniature green hydrangeas, green dendrobium orchids, nora brown mokara orchids, and seeded eucalyptus.


The reception held immediately following the romantic ceremony was held at the Spring Haven Mansion as well. Guests enjoyed food catered by Hometown Catering and a gorgeous cake from Wedding Cake Design by Rebecca.


We wish Randi and Wes a lifetime of the happiness that they know today. Thank you both for allowing us to be a part of your story. You were a joy to work with!

Sable and Jeffrey- June 13, 2009

It looked like a page in a storybook. Nestled in a wooded area in White House, Tennessee is the Village Chapel at Grace Park, which served as the site of both the wedding ceremony and reception for the union of Sable and Jeffrey. It was absolutely picturesque.



The reception hall was colorfully decorated in beautiful canary yellow, watermelon pink, coral, and Kermit green, which served as the colors of the wedding and were infused into each detail. The bridesmaids wore flowing Kermit green gowns and carried bouquets with pinks, corals, and yellows. The color combination truly was the perfect combination for this festive summer wedding.



Sable, the blushingly bride, carried a bouquet of: white Asiatic lilies, white lisianthus, white freesia, mambo roses, coral gerbera daisies, and white dahlias.

We always enjoy brides who are eager to play with color and flower combinations. This was very much the case for the wedding of Sable and Jeffrey. It was our honor to be a part of this special day. We wish the happy couple years of happiness together. Congratulations!

Camy and Cliff- July 18, 2009

What a fun wedding! It is our absolute favorite thing when a bride isn't afraid to use a little color and play with her flower selection. Camy was a blast to work with because she was so open to being creative and the results were amazing.

Camy and Cliff were married at Brentwood Country Club, which was also the location of the reception. The colors were ivory and black, yet the bride asked for lots of color in the bouquets with beautiful pinks, purples, greens, blues, etc. The bridesmaids carried bouquets with orange snapdragons, purple lisianthus, hot pink gerbera daisies, yellow Peruvian lilies, Kermit button pompoms, bupleurum, and lavender dahlias. Camy's bouquet had white dahlias, white stock, white Asiatic lilies, gloriosa lilies, purple lisianthus, orange freesia, ivory hydrangea, and Kermit button pompoms.

The yummy looking cake was decorated with pink, red, and orange gerbera daisies. Very simple, yet still beautiful.


It was our honor to be a part of this wedding. Congratulations, Camy and Cliff! Best of wishes!

Anne and Ed- May 2, 2009

It was the bride's love for gardening that inspired this colorful wedding, highlighted with beautiful periwinkles and vivid corals.

The marriage of Anne and Ed took place in early May. The two exchanged vows at Franklin Cumberland Presbyterian Church and they celebrated with a beautiful outside reception held at the family home.

Anne was absolutely radiating, as she carried a bouquet of blue hydrangeas and deep coral roses. It was a joy to be a part of their special day.

Emi and Michael- November 28, 2008

The day after Thanksgiving set the stage for the beautiful union of Emi and Michael. In all of our years seeing couples join together, we are at a loss for a more beautifully perfect couple than these two.



Married at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Franklin, Tennessee with the reception held at The Hermitage Hotel, the entire day was breathtakingly beautiful.

Emi carried a bouquet of white tulips, white stock, mango calla lilies, ivory spray, California garden roses, hypericum berries, and roses.

The bridesmaids' bouquets were just as beautiful, made up of mango calla lilies, lily grass, and hypericum berries.

The cake looked to die for delicious and was designed by Jo's Cakes and Catering.



And the stunning photographs for the entire wedding were taken by our dear friends, Peter and Whitney, at Dove Wedding Photography.

Crystal and William- October 18, 2008

Our first out of two weddings on the beautiful October afternoon could not have been more perfect.



Although they grew up in what would seem like polar opposite environments, with Crystal being from Canada and William being from California, they joined together in perfect harmony. Crystal looked absolutely stunning and carried a bouquet of Black Magic and Orange Unique roses.

During both the ceremony and the reception, Crystal's violin and fiddle students from Vanderbilt University serenaded guests. It truly was an event overflowing with love and happiness, where everyone close to the couple was involved- including their dog, Mandy, who greeted guests with an array of flowers adorning her collar.

Meeting Crystal just one month before her ceremony at the Love is in the Air Bridal Fair at the Cool Springs Galleria was a blessing for both of her and Belles Fleurs. We all were able to relish in the beauty of the day, the flowers, and the love.
