Blast from the past...a few years ago I worked Tia and Adam's wedding at Scarritt Bennett's GORGEOUS Wightman Chapel with a reception following at University Club of Nashville. Scarritt Bennett's Wightman Chapel is stunning...really if you haven't seen it, you should check it out. I am a sucker for architecture and historic buildings and the Gothic architecture of Wightman Chapel is one of my favorite types! Here is some information for you straight off of the Scarritt Bennett website:
"Built in 1928, this
architectural treasure is on the National Historic Register. The chapel will
seat approximately 300 and is the site of several special worship services each
year. With its stunning gothic architecture and a 90-foot center aisle, this
sacred chapel is one of Nashville's most popular wedding venues."

The bride and groom put a lot of thought into decor at their reception. The table numbers were different pictures of the couple...so sweet!
I loved these copper chafing dishes. The mashed potato bar was a HUGE hit at the reception!
The BEAUTIFUL cake was made by none other than Dulce Desserts! Brides, if you have not checked out Dulce Desserts, they are a MUST TRY! I attend A LOT of weddings (as a photographer) and although I am always offered wedding cake, I almost never partake...not that I am so uber healthy that I won't touch cake. Don't get me wrong, I love some dessert, especially all things chocolate, but honestly I prefer cookies, brownies, pie, almost anything really to cake. It just isn't my thing so I don't bother with it. However, if you hire me to photograph your wedding and you have a Dulce cake, you better save me a piece! Juanita Lane, the owner of Dulce is super sweet and helpful. I highly recommend you make an appointment to meet with Dulce at their retail location in mid-town Nashville! There are lots of pretty wedding cakes being made in Nashville, but not all of them taste fabulous and Dulce cakes taste FABULOUS!
Yum...now I am hungry for some Dulce cake! In my next posting, I'll share some aspects of the super fun reception! Make it a fabulous day!
