Meridian Couple Married in Oxford | Mississippi June Wedding

June 24, 2023 Joe Cain

Layne and Joseph’s wedding day was beyond amazing. Even though they grew up together in Meridian, Oxford is a very special place to them. It was the perfect place to become husband and wife.

The morning began at the beautiful South Lamar House. Its vintage sophistication made everything look pristine and unique. Layne and her bridal party got ready there. She looked incredible in her wedding gown that had little details of something blue and something borrowed. On the train of her gown, there was blue lace that was on her mother’s wedding gown. She also had pearled straps added to the gown that were also her mother's. Layne also exchanged sweet letters with her mom, her mother-in-law, and with Joseph. She had first looks with her bridal party, her brother, her father, her stepfather, and Joseph. It was very important to her that each person in her life felt special on her day.

After all the sentimental parts were done at the South Lamar House, including Layne and Joseph’s first look, the whole bridal party went to the Ole Miss campus to take photos of its beautiful landscape and quintessential landmarks. They also used a bright red trolley to escort them around the town. Finally, after all the beautiful shots, they are taken to the place where they would say they’re “I do’s,” The Jefferson.

The ceremony at The Jefferson decorated stunningly. The floral arrangement in the middle of the doors leading out to the water was flawless. In front of all their family and friends, they said their vows and make their commitments.

After the ceremony, the cocktail hour and reception were exceptional. Delicious food and open bars were served endlessly. The bride's cake was beautiful, but it was the groom's cake that stole the show. His cake was made to look like Swayze Field. It was incredible and unlike anything, we have ever seen. The band had an easy time getting the guests to celebrate. And finally, the party favors were passed out which were hats embroidered with their dog and wedding date. They exited with sparklers and left in a vintage classic car.

Layne and Joseph were married on June 24, 2023, at The Jefferson in Oxford, Mississippi.
