MS Delta Couple Married at Last - Fall Wedding in Cleveland, MS

Autumn weddings in the heart of the Mississippi Delta are incredible, but throw in an amazingly fun and happy couple in the mix and it’s simply perfection. That was why Anna Parker and Chantz’s wedding weekend was simply perfection.

It all began on a beautiful Friday evening as guests, family, and bridal party members flocked to the Ellis Theater off the main street of Cleveland. The decor for the rehearsal dinner was incredible, with plate settings for everyone. The rehearsal dinner was a night filled with delicious food, sentiment speeches, hilarious stories, and a brimming excitement for Anna Parker and Chantz. To finish out the evening, a live band helped guests dance and mingle to their heart’s delight.

The next morning at The Cotton House, the girls were getting their hair and makeup done and enjoying the moment. Anna Parker’s wedding gown fit her perfectly and she looked radiant. Chantz guessed that it would be “poofy,” but the gown itself was elegant like his bride-to-be. Before going to the church to have her first look with Chantz, Anna Parker did a first look with her bridesmaids in the lobby of The Cotton House. Their expressions were priceless, some even had tears in their eyes.

At the church, Chantz was ready to see his girl. Their first look was wonderful, filled with genuine emotion and joy at seeing each other on their long-awaited day. They read letters to each other in the empty sanctuary. Chantz’s parents also had written them letters that they read. Anna Parker had a sweet first look with her dad at the back of the church where she and her parents usually sit on Sunday mornings. Later in the day, after bridal party photos and family photos, Anna Parker gave thoughtful gifts to her parents and Chantz’s parents. It was evident that Anna Parker and Chantz not only cherished each other, but they sincerely cherished their families as well.

Solo worshipful songs, scripture readings, and a short homily were the main features of the ceremony. In front of a packed-out church, Anna Parker and Chantz made their commitments and vows and exchanged rings. Finally, high school sweethearts, Anna Parker and Chantz were officially married.

The reception was held back at The Cotton House along with the Delta Meat Market that is located in the hotel. There also was an outdoor tent to help accommodate all the guests. The floral arrangements at the reception were astoundingly incredible. The callalily floral chandelier over the dance floor was truly such an elegant touch. Firsts dances were danced, cakes were cut, and incredible food was served endlessly. Everything about the evening was exemplary. To end the evening, Anna Parker and Chantz left through a tunnel of white confetti and into a vintage car.

Anna Parker and Chantz were married on October 21, 2023, at First Presbyterian Church of Cleveland in Cleveland, Mississippi.

After hours of pictures and even popping over to downtown Lake Village, it was finally time for the marriage ceremony. Lakeside United Methodist Church was filled to the brim with people.

Lydia and Samuel’s wedding day was one of the most beautiful wedding days we’ve ever had the pleasure to film. The day was perfect.

Lydia’s wedding gown was amazing with its intricate detailed sleeves. She even had a matching white face mask to match the dress. She also had the most perfect touch of elegance with a diamond hair piece that pulled one side of her hair back so that we could see her gorgeous face and smile all day. Samuel was also very handsome in his classic black tuxedo. Their first look was beautiful as Lydia walked out to meet Samuel who was standing outside the brick building with surrounded by the natural fall elements.

Their ceremony was also so intentional and exceptional. Their officiant had one of the best messages regarding marriage and beginning life together now as one instead of two separate individuals. The Ice House Venue had the perfect ceremony area as well with its light hints of Christmas. The stunning iron and wood circle staircase with the chandelier also made the whole atmosphere seem so elegant.

The receptions was such a celebration. It was hard not to dance and enjoy the evening with Style Entertainment busting out the incredible song selection. (Not to mention the "Soul Train" line with choreographed dance moves! ) Again, everything about Lydia and Samuel’s day was beautiful and so enjoyable.
