Ashlyn + Clay Modern Rustic Rehearsal Dinner

One of my absolute favorite things about being a photographer is the connection I make with the beautiful people I am lucky to work with. It is so gratifying to work with someone in such a way that they trust you to capture multiple life milestones with them.

Such is the case with Ashlyn and Clay, one of the beautiful couples I was able to photograph engagement photos for last fall. If you haven’t read their story, you can check it out HERE. Before their gorgeous Nashville wedding, I captured their chic rehearsal dinner held in downtown Nashville at the 618 Ewing event space.

Their wedding planner, Sarah Regalo, transformed the urban space into a stunning minimalist celebration that was everything Ashlyn had dreamed of and more. With the help of @southerneventsonline Sarah transformed the couple’s idea into an unbelievable reality; essentially Ashlyn’s rehearsal dinner Pinterest board come to life.

The guests of this Nashville rehearsal dinner, oohed and awed over the food from Flavor Catering (especially the bananas foster!). They were even so kind as to provide all vendors with their own meal- and I can vouch for the ooh and aws of the attendees. Each course was incredibly flavorful, and left me hoping that they’d be catering all of my upcoming 2019 weddings.
