Allison & Hayden: A Southern Classic Wedding

All the way from California, Allison and Hayden celebrated their love with a simple and classic outdoor ceremony and reception at Allenbrooke Farms in Spring Hill, Tennessee.

Allison wore an elegant open-back dress with a classic green and white bouquet. Her bridesmaids wore mismatched blush dresses and held smaller versions of the bride’s bouquet. Hayden suited up in a classic black tux with his groomsmen in black suits with complementary blush ties.

Their wedding day began with a stunning sun-filled ceremony in front of a round wooden ceremony arch decorated with white drapery and arrangements of large white roses and leafy greenery

After the newlyweds said “I do,” Allison and Hayden slipped away from the crowd to take in the day just the two of them for some sunset portraits. The guests enjoyed a cocktail hour and mingled over charred beef crostinis, caprese skewers, goat cheese tartlets, and signature cocktails— a moscow mule, an old fashioned, and a margarita. A beverage station was also set up with classic lemonade and Southerntea served with lemons and sweeteners.

Everyone then made their way to the reception, where Allison and Hayden shared their first dance, followed by a father-daughter dance and mother-son dance.

Dinner service then began with a plated cranberry salad, followed by a buffet of Southern favorites— gourmet truffle mac and cheese, Greek petite green beans, and Jack Daniel’s whiskey pecan chicken. Desserts included a bananas foster station, cinnamon hush puppies, and a variety of different cheesecake bites.

After an evening filled with desserts and dancing, toasts and well wishes to the bride and groom, guests made their way outside for a sparkler send-off!

Congratulations to Allison and Hayden! We are honored to have been a part of your special day. Scroll on to see more details of their simple yet classic wedding day.
