Julie spent two years living in Nashville while getting her masters degree at Vanderbilt and completely fell in love with the city – and with the love of her life – Kyle.  She shares, “I love the sense of big city atmosphere with a small town feel that you get in Nashville.  The food and the music are amazing.  But what I loved the most about Nashville was the people and the sense of being at “home” that I felt living there.  When the time came for Julie and Kyle to pick a venue and plan their wedding, they had specific goals: “We wanted to do something unique that would showcase this sense of southern warmth and family.”

Julie  also wanted to keep their celebration elegant and timeless.  Julie achieved that balance between an intimate, family feel and classic sensibility by choosing long farm tables and a family style dinner. Julie, her mom and grandmother even made mini whiskey cakes from an old family recipe as guest favors.  Staying on-trend with wedding fashion, Julie’s bridesmaids wore modern mismatched dresses with a touch of sparkle, and the guys wore classic black tuxedos. And to make Julie and Kyle’s wedding stand out from the crowd?  Cedarwood’s Outdoor Cathedral, erected on the venue’s expansive green field, was an unforgettable ceremony setting for guests. Just before their big day, Julie told us ” I can’t stop listening to my entrance music (A Thousand Years by the Piano Guys) and imagining those big church doors opening and seeing Kyle up at the cathedral altar.”   Enjoy their gorgeous Cedarwood wedding day through these wedding photos by Nyk+Cali, Wedding Photographers.
