Sincerity, intentionality, and genuine hospitality beautifully describe the wedding weekend of Lizy and Glenn. They exemplify these characteristics effortlessly and naturally. When we left Memphis after their weekend, we walked away dazed by the sheer beauty of it all, encouraged by their worshipful ceremony, and heart’s filled to brim with joy because of who they are.
The rehearsal dinner was at The Tower Room at the Clark Tower in East Memphis. 39 floors above the city of Memphis, person after person talked about the character and integrity of both Lizy and Glenn. It was amazing to hear all the love that so many different people had for them and how genuinely excited they were about the matrimony ahead. It was a wonderful evening.
The next day we met Lizy and her bridal party and family at the lovely Airbnb, Crestmere Estate. It was the perfect setting for this classy and elegant woman to get ready to see her soon-to-be husband. Her dress was equally as elegant and beautifully detailed. She then had a sweet first look with her father before heading off to the Dixon Gardens to see Glenn.
Glenn was very excited to see Lizy. They did their first look in the shaded area around the entrance of the garden. Lizy, with excited gracefulness, leaped toward Glenn and his expression said it all. The happy couple was finally together, all nerves disappeared. Humidity aside, it was a dream to film these two throughout the garden. Everything was lovely and vibrant with colors and lush greenery. Their bridal party was also so excited and amazed to film.
The ceremony was at Second Presbyterian Church. The enormity of the grand sanctuary was such a beautiful place for these two intentional people to be married. Hymns were sung. The homily was incredible. The overall scene was breathtaking.
After the ceremony and a few more photos at the church with family, the Dixon Garden was ready for a celebration! There was a beautifully lit beer garden with outdoor games. There was a fresh pizza station among the other food tables. The stunning cakes were inside with a gorgeous floral chandelier gorgeously hanging over the tiered bridal cake. As the band played, the dance floor was rarely empty. People were ready to celebrate with and for Lizy and Glenn!
Everything about this weekend was beautiful and remarkable.
Lizy and Glenn were married on June 12, 2021, at Second Presbyterian Church in Memphis, Tennessee.
