Loye+Brian- a Tennessee Ballroom Wedding

I’ve been SO eager to post Loye and Brian’s ballroom wedding. As I wrap up my degree in art, I’ve become seriously attached to these photos. Every free second I got I would get in a my hypothetical corner and edit, edit, edit- I think about them all the time, they even haunt me a little (in a beautiful way) in my sleep. Needless to say, the time has come to share!

I met Loye four years ago on bid day at the University of Memphis. She and one of her maid of honors, Claire, were immediately everyone’s favorite, with good reason. They’re both all kinds of amazing. Little did I know what good friends we would become. When Loye contacted me about shooting her wedding, I had no words, only smiles. I remember the first time I saw a photograph of Loye and Brian. I hadn’t met him, but I specifically remember thinking, “Look how happy Loye looks!” Well Brian must have been doing something right, because Loye was all smiles, and shined with glitter and gleam the entire day.

The venue that Loye and Brian chose was perfect for their urban style. The Balinese Ballroom on North Main had so many great features: twinkly lights, bare brick walls, lots (and I mean LOTS) of great light, I couldn’t have asked for a better place!

Something I really admired, and have to mention is Loye and Brian’s relationship, not only with each other, but also with the Lord. Loye and Brian have both done mission work, and our extremely selfless. Their wedding ceremony was so sweet and centered on the Lord, everyone in the room could feel the passion. They are definitely people John and I strive to be like, and I know that’s a huge reason why Loye & Brian are so well liked by ALL people. You will only hear good things when either of their names are mentioned. I feel blessed to call them friends.

And I need to give recognition to Loye and Brian’s bridal party. Talk about a complete package, from the lovely bridesmaids to the handsome, hilarious groomsmen, it’s safe to say I’ve yet to laugh that hard at a wedding. John and I both were bent over, a good percentage of the time. From the Anthropologie bridesmaid’s dresses, to the vintage bow ties, this bridal party was trendy, classic, charming, and down right good looking, which made our job so easy!

Without further adieu- Mr. & Mrs. Ellsworth, Enjoy!

Loye told me her good friend Ali made this for her, using quotes and verses that both Loye and Brian love. Ali, I will be contacting you about this, because it is amazing!

Shout out to Gretchen Campbell for doing some AMAZING hair

&&& then there was a dance party between the bride, bridesmaids, and MOB. The wobble was necessary.

Loye let each of her bridesmaids pick out their own necklace to show off their individual styles. I loved this idea, and they ALL had such nice ones!

Loye’s bridesmaids gave THE best reaction to seeing her in her dress for the first time.

Loye, you were the definition of bridal bliss. Stunning

This was truly precious. Brian met Loye halfway down the aisle to symbolize Christ coming back for his bride. -tears

So glad I caught this shot, sweet Brian was wiping one of Loye’s tears as she read her vows.

Loye and Brian, we were thrilled to capture these happy moments!
