Photography by Kristyn Hogan

We posted a preview of Sarah and Tyler‘s amazing wedding from photographer Kristyn Hogan‘s blog, and now we are excited to share a fantastic full feature of their wedding, bursting with personality, amazing florals, fashion, paper goods and fun, unique details.  Seriously, we LOVE this couple, their family and their style – and these perfectly photographed images by one of our favorite photographers, Kristyn Hogan.  When we asked  Sarah what inspired her during the planning of her wedding, she shares:

“I have always been drawn to classic and timeless styles, so that has been the foundation of my vision from the get-go. I want the day to be something I will still love years and years from now. I’m also a hopeless romantic and I think weddings should be something that make your heart flutter. Because of this, I have tried to incorporate soft, romantic elements into the design as well by using a lavender/champagne/gray color scheme, lace accents, and mercury glass.  In addition, there is something very special about southern weddings. They have a sense of tradition and charm that is captivating to me. Our wedding wouldn’t feel complete without some Tennessee flair to tie it all together, so we added some unmistakable southern elements that will give our upscale event a bit of a down-home feel.  This combination has yielded the perfect blend of casual elegance that I have dreamed of all along. I could not be more thrilled with how everything has come together.  Lastly, we want the day to be a reflection of what is most important to us: our family and friends. We are beyond blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives, and we want take this opportunity to show our appreciation to them for all of the love and support they have given us.”

It’s hard to handle so much loveliness. Congratulations Sarah and Tyler. We are blessed at the opportunity to work with you, and we are blown away by your amazing wedding photos by Kristyn Hogan! Sarah was kind enough to share her choices of personal details and wedding sources below.
