Last year’s NotWedding in Nashville a hipster vintage vibe , while this year’s decor took a softer and more romantic turn.  The theme was ‘down to earth’ and the vendor team pulled off another stunner full of gorgeous details and loads of earthy elegance.  Hosted again at Cannery Ballroom, Black Chiavari Chairs were used for the ceremony – with a stunning floral focal point, the space had a cool, industrial feel.  The reception used more natural elements with a variety of centerpieces as well as our Oatmeal Linens, White Wooden Folding Chairs and Artisan China.  Two of the three wedding cakes on display rested atop our Gold Windsor and Round Fruitwood Cake Plateaus.  Plenty to inspired earthy, boho brides and grooms!

All images below are from Maile Lani Photography except one – noted below.  There were three great photographers for this event – each focusing on different aspects of the day.  Ruffled Blog has more of these images in their feature from last month – enjoy!
