What’s better than a beautiful springtime wedding at The White Dove Barn? One that has two dogs! Sam & Tom’s perfect day was such a fun celebration, and The White Dove Barn just outside of Nashville, TN was the perfect springtime backdrop! Weddings at The White Dove Barn feature the rolling hills in the background and a perfect venue space that gives couples a beautiful blank space to create a perfect wedding look!
Plus…beautiful bridesmaids dresses in varying shades of green, a fun greenery photo wall with a neon sign, and I can’t forget the koozies with their dogs on them! This wedding day was full of beautiful, thoughtful touches that truly spoke to this couple and their love story. Sam & Tom were so very excited to celebrate (read: party) with their favorite people in the room. And boy did they!
Dancing the night away, these two and their guests were a blast! They were all smiles the entire night. It was so fun to see how close and supportive their families and friends are! Then, as the night came to a close, Sam changed into her getaway dress and grabbed her new “Mrs. Padberg” jean jacket. Their sparkler exit was the perfect way to end this fun celebration after their wedding at The White Dove Barn.
Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Padberg! And thank you for allowing me to capture your perfect springtime soiree!
