Gabbi and Eric celebrated their love with the perfect fall wedding day at Sycamore Farms in Arrington, Tennessee.

Once the big day arrived, Gabbi and her bridesmaids, who wore beautiful emerald green dresses, got ready in the ladies lounge while Eric and his groomsmen, who wore matching black suits with boutonnieres, set up camp in the groom’s quarters.

Once Gabbi was ready in her simple elegant, open back wedding gown and long veil, the first looks began. She did a first look with her dad, and then one with her bridesmaids. These moments were so sweet and personal, we know Gabbi will cherish them forever.

The ceremony was set by the pond with a beautiful view of the trees changing colors for the season. After guests took their seats, Gabbi’s father walked her down the aisle as she held a classic white bouquet filled with soft greenery and pops of eucalyptus. 

After the couple said their “I dos,” guests moved to cocktail hour, which was held on the back veranda of the barn. Gabby and Eric finished up photos with their wedding party and families as guests mingled. 

Cocktail hour began and everyone sipped on refreshments while enjoying hor d’oeuvres, such as charred beef crostinis, chicken salad wontons, and of course, hot chicken bites. 

When the reception began, guests were seated to a plated caprese salad with a honey butter yeast roll as Gabbi and Eric were introduced into the reception as Mr. and Mrs. Bowen.

A buffet dinner was then served, and guests had their choice of braised beef or honey balsamic chicken with sides of pimento mac and cheese and roasted brussel sprouts. 

As guests finished up this delicious meal, Gabby and Eric cut the cake while “How Sweet It Is” by James Taylor played. Then, the first dance was well on its way and the couple danced to “Missing Piece” by Vance Joy, and there wasn’t a dry eye in the room!

After an evening of dancing and laughing, the final song “Bye Bye Bye” by N*SYNC played while guests headed to the send off! The night concluded with a beautiful sparkler exit for the newlywed couple.

Congratulations, Gabbi and Eric! We were honored to be a part of your beautiful fall wedding. We wish you a lifetime of love, laughter, and happiness.
