Sweet Smoky Mountain Micro Wedding

With everything going on in the world today it is a really good time to have your wedding ceremony outdoors. One way to keep your occasion special and safe is to have an itty bitty event with your closest friends and family.  Even though you might be simplifying your day it doesn’t mean that you have to sacrifice style, though. Find the perfect little dress and accessories, add in your floral elements, and source your ceremony spot.

If you love nature and the gorgeous Smoky Mountains we have just the place for you. Located in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains, and overflowing with rustic charm, Chapel In the Hollow is the perfect location to host your micro wedding. This whimsical intimate wedding venue offers amazing customizable micro wedding (or elopement) packages with lots of options. They can provide you with an officiant, photographer, coordinator, and/or videographer plus the most darling mini chapel ever. No matter your tastes and budget, they can help you plan something wonderful. Oh, and they do incredible florals as well.

Star Noir Photography recently teamed up with Chapel In the Hollow and Custom Love Gifts along with other local wedding pros to show how heartfelt and exceptional a tiny wedding can be. They captured the spirit of this special place in a styled shoot featuring lovely Gwyneth and her adorable boyfriend Dylan.

Their vision came to life with a fresh, summery vibe. Vibrant pops of color in the luscious bouquet and Gwyneth’s bright shoes just radiate fun. Plus her short lace dress and rose gold accessories from The Gilded Gown are exceptionally sweet.

Can we take a minute to appreciate the sleeve on this sweet gown?

And the open circle back!?

Gwyneth’s fresh-faced beauty was accented with beautiful hair and makeup by Southern Sirens.

Dylan wore a tan suit from Regal Tuxedo of Knoxville – Formerly Savvi Formalwear.

Millstone Crafted the cutest invites for the occasion:

We can’t think of a cuter couple to remind us of the most important thing in life: love. They remind us that even in a world gone crazy we still have hope for the future and we can still celebrate special occasions in wonderful new ways.

Gwyneth shares their real-life love story:

Even though the way Dylan and I met isn’t exactly the best plot for a rom-com, we’ve been together since eighth grade. I had just moved to a new school and got invited to go on a group date to a formal dance. It was my first time wearing heels, and I’m clumsy even without heels. I was wanting to get that perfect formal photo and climbed up a rock waterfall. Of course, I slipped, but I didn’t fall. Thankfully, there was a cute blond in a bowtie holding my hand. I fell in love head over heels for Dylan (figuratively and literally). Our first date was to a delicious pizza place. We both got pizzas. I made a custom pizza, and he ate over half of mine but only a slice of his. So, now we are a kind of pizza connoisseurs. For fun, we like to try new pizza places. Since COVID, we have been trying to master tossing dough and making homemade pizza.”
