Meredith and Bryan met through mutual friends, and they wanted a wedding to truly show of their southern roots. Bryan is a carpenter and Meredith is a chief so they wanted to make sure there was a lot of wood accents as well as good southern food at the wedding.

Gourmet Catering coordinated this beautiful day, and also catered the event with dishes like fried green tomatoes and shrimp and grits. Rentals were provided by Event Works. Congratulations Meredith and Bryan!! Meredith and Bryan were also featured on Aisle Ready, and you can check them out here!
