On a dreamy spring afternoon in Dickson, Tennessee, Emily and Jackson tied the knot under a lush canopy of green at Firefly Lane. Their ceremony took place in the aptly named Enchanted Forest, where string lights glowed through the trees and ferns lined the aisle, setting the tone for a whimsical, joy-filled day.
Emily looked stunning in a sculpted gown from Vow’d Nashville, paired with a veil dotted in delicate pearls. Her look was completed with soft glam by @confidentlybeautiful_byrylee and a timeless updo from @hairby_alyssafinch. Jackson, dapper in a black tux from Men’s Wearhouse, lit up when he saw Emily for the first time as she walked down the aisle—no first look, just that perfect moment surrounded by nature and their closest loved ones.
Their love story began seven years ago on Tinder, and it was only fitting that their wedding be as unique and intentional as their journey together. The day reflected exactly who they are: the fun, spirited “black sheep” of their traditional families who just wanted everyone to have a great time. And they delivered.
From an emotional first look with Emily and her dad, to a custom tattoo pop-up by @vivloretattoo and a t-shirt toss that had guests on their feet, the day was full of surprises and delight. Guests feasted on delicious slices from @zanderspizza and bundt cakes from—where else?—Nothing Bundt Cakes.
But perhaps the most memorable part of the evening was the wedding scavenger hunt. Picture this: someone racing across the reception trying to find a black purse. Laughter echoed through the trees as the games continued and Emily and Jackson soaked in every second.
They chose soft pastel spring tones and wildflower arrangements to bring their vision to life. Everything felt effortlessly them—from the pizza bar to their casual thank-you speech and table greetings.
Emily and Jackson, your day was vibrant, relaxed, and bursting with love. Thank you for letting me capture the magic of your wedding day. You reminded everyone that the most important thing isn’t perfection—it’s presence, joy, and choosing to celebrate in your own unforgettable way.
