Taylor and Andy were married on a beautiful fall day at Ramble Creek Vineyards in Athens, TN surrounded by their closest family and friends. The couple’s love for each other and for those around them was evident throughout the day. Most of their bridal party was made up of their friends from college and you could tell by the way their people rallied around them on their big day, just how special this couple is! 

Anyone would be lucky to have friends like Taylor’s, who celebrated her and pumped her up all day long, especially as they saw her for the first time in her wedding dress. As the girls got ready, Taylor wrote a letter to Andy to read before their ceremony and he did the same for her. Later in the day, as they read the letters from their soon-to-be husband/wife, you could feel their excitement to meet one another at the altar. 

Now, don’t get me wrong, there are things I love about a couple doing a first look, but there’s just something about a groom seeing his bride for the first time on their wedding day as she’s walking toward him, about to promise to love him forever. The love and emotion that fills the room is unmatched. Taylor and Andy chose not to see each other on their big day until that moment and it was so worth it!!

After saying their vows, exchanging rings, worshiping, and taking communion together, the couple was pronounced husband and wife, sealing the moment with a kiss as Andy dipped his bride. They celebrated the rest of the evening with their family and friends who I know will continue to celebrate them forever. Their friends spoke of how Andy so relentlessly pursued Taylor and what a sweet picture that is of how our Father has pursued us… what a love story!! After an evening of celebrating the new Mr. and Mrs. Tatum, a tunnel of sparklers was formed to see Taylor and Andy off into their new life together. 

Taylor and Andy, we are so honored to have been able to capture the special moments of your wedding day. We are cheering you on and wish you the very best!

With Love,

Katie and Adam Collins
