Intimate East Tennessee Micro Wedding

Join us in celebrating the beautiful love story of Ally and Greg as they exchanged heartfelt vows in an intimate East Tennessee micro wedding at Chapel in the Hollow! The chapel was adorned in enchanting lilac and white fabric, creating an atmosphere of elegance and romance. The lavender florals added a delicate touch, infusing the surroundings with their soft colors.

Despite the hot and muggy afternoon, the couple and their loved ones embraced the warmth and created a magical atmosphere. Even the breeze from the fans couldn’t quell the palpable love and joy that filled the air. Ally looked absolutely stunning in her sleeveless dress, perfectly capturing the essence of summer elegance. The short veil added a touch of whimsy and charm as she walked down the aisle. Greg looked dashing in his gray suit, exuding timeless style and sophistication.

The first look between Ally and her dad was a profoundly emotional moment, he couldn’t help but shed tears of joy at the sight of his beautiful daughter about to embark on this new chapter of her life. It was a heartfelt testament to the depth of love and connection within their family. After the ceremony, Ally shared a sweet moment with their son, cherishing the bond they share as a family. It was a touching and tender moment that spoke volumes about their love and commitment to one another.

We feel incredibly honored to have been a part of Ally and Greg’s special day, witnessing their love and capturing the precious moments that will be cherished for a lifetime. May their journey be filled with endless love, laughter, and beautiful memories as they embark on this new chapter together. Congratulations to the lovely couple and their growing family!

From the Bride:

We met through an old friend in high school but lost contact until after we graduated. Then Gregory messaged me on Instagram. It didn’t take long for us to rekindle, and we’ve been together ever since. Our first date we went out to dinner then on a walk at the Zionsville Park. Afterwards we drove around and got cookies from McDonald’s. That then became our favorite little date we did every time he came over. We would get McDonald’s and drive around, talking about any and everything.

Gregory proposed during a hike in Gatlinburg. It was our first trip with our son and some friends. Gregory asked if I wanted to go to the water and look for rocks, when I turned around, he was on one knee proposing. It was the most beautiful, unexpected moment and I of course said yes. Since Tennessee is our favorite place to come for getaways. We thought it would be perfect for an elopement, when we found the chapel, it was a beautiful place to have our wedding. I am looking forward to finally getting to marry the love of my life. And of course, getting to celebrate our love for each other surrounded by our close family and friends. We chose the date we started dating was 16 – 17. We got engaged on the 8th, so decided to stay with the consecutive number by getting married 7 – 8.

For fun, we are both outdoorsy people and love making memories with our son. We love taking our boat out in the summer to fish and tube. On the weekends we like to golf or sit by the fire. The bride enjoys gardening and has a small abundance of plants. The groom spends his extra time caring for animals and coaching. Our typical date consists of usually staying in and having a movie night with our son.
