Shelby & Cyrus: A Charming Romantic Wedding

Shelby and Cyrus tied the knot with the most romantic and classy reception at Cheekwood Estate and Gardens full of greenery and white blooms . 

Shelby spent the morning getting ready with her two bridesmaids and her mother, while Cyrus and his groomsmen hung  out at Henley, a local restaurant in Midtown, before heading to Cheekwood for the ceremony.

Guests were welcomed into the ceremony by a stunning gold-framed mirror with perfectly scripted white calligraphy and began to take their seats. The intimate ceremony took place under Cheekwood’s Wisteria Arbor, which is known for its breathtaking views overlooking the Reflecting Pool.

After the beautiful couple said “I do,” Cyrus kissed his bride and smiles filled guests’ faces. The newlyweds then walked out cheering and holding hands; you could feel how excited they were to finally be husband and wife!

As the ceremony ended and cocktail hour began, appetizers were served, which included buffalo chicken pinwheels, charred beef crostinis, and mac n’ cheese bites. Everything you could want!

Dinner began with the perfect garden market salad with maple ranch dressing. On to the main course, Shelby’s choice was the honey balsamic chicken, while Cyrus is a huge fan of spicy food, so his pick was the Nashville hot chicken, of course.

They had a variety of sides to please everyone, including honey and thyme roasted vegetables, almond and pepper asparagus, and white cheddar whipped potatoes. 

After guests enjoyed the delicious menu, Shelby and Cyrus had their first dance as newlyweds, and then dancing was well on its way for everyone! After an evening filled with cake and fun, well wishes were made to the couple as the night came to an end.

Congratulations to Shelby & Cyrus! We wish you all the best and were honored to have played a part in your special day. Cheers to many more years to a lifetime of love and happiness!
