Heather & Brian literally went across the world to find each other. Heather is an amazingly talented jazz singer who was the artist in residence at the Shangri-La Hotel in Shanghai when Brian visited the city for a business trip. They met while both eating alone in the hotel’s restaurant and as they say, the rest is history. There love traveled continents before eventually ending up back in the United States and they picked Brian’s parents’ home in Tennessee to say “I Do!” Heather & Brian are two of the most genuine people you will ever meet and it was such a joy to document their intense love for each other and their friends and family who came to Tennessee, from literally all over the world, to celebrate them. Enjoy this sneak peek of their special day with more sweet moments on our Facebook Page.
Of course, Heather & Brian’s sweet pups had to celebrate with them as well!
Love this moment right before Heather and her mom walk down the aisle.
Married!
I love how special and unique Heather & Brian’s rings are. Brian purchased Heather’s vintage ring while traveling in Belgium and they chose to honor the amazing marriage of Brian’s parents by wearing their original wedding bands.
Such joy!
Their reception was a celebration of their love of each other and their love of traveling the world together. From Chinese dragon dancers to postcards from around the world, their day was a fusion of Southern hospitality and cultures from around the world.
Congratulions, Heather & Brian! Your love and joy is infectious and we are so happy you found each other!
