Sometimes, a stunning garden soiree wedding is just what you need. And Tim & Jill’s elegant garden wedding at CJ’s Off the Square in Franklin, TN was every bit elegance meets fun. Tables and the gazebo were draped with beautiful florals from Enchanted Florist TN. They were the perfect accent, and the room was pulled together by the beautiful floral-filled chandelier.
From the moment Jill and I first chatted on the phone, I knew that this was one couple’s story that I couldn’t wait to document. The love that Jill just gushed over her new fiance. Theirs is the kind of love stories that go straight to the heart. Between the two of them, they have six — yes, SIX — kids. Jill was widowed with young children, and waited for years until she met the man who stole her heart and changed her last name.
One look at them and the love between these two is so evident. And their day, celebrated by family and friends, is full of so many laughs and beautiful details.
