Jess & Elizabeth’s “High Tea” spring wedding was at Smithview Pavilion in Maryville, Tenn., on March 24, 2012. This gorgeous wedding was overflowing with handmade details, English tea inspiration, lace, and vintage loveliness!
Elizabeth and her mother, Leslie, planned a small intimate 2 o’clock afternoon wedding. English adornments included sixpence in Elizabeth’s shoe, personalized doilies under each plate with each guest’s name on them, lace linens from The White Table, white milk glass vases, and vintage decorative tea bags. The bride’s veil was hand made by the groom’s mother, her gown was from White Lace & Promises, and there were antique hankerchiefs for “happy tears” during the wedding ceremony (swoon!).
The bride & bridesmaid’s bouquets were by Lisa Foster Floral, hair and makeup by Belezza Salon, and guest seating cards were hand made on vintage paper and hung on twine across antique wooden screen doors. The reception catering by Holly’s Eventful Dining included scones, marmalades, delectable tea sandwiches, and hot tea provided in vintage tea pots. And for an extra sentimental touch, the bride and groom’s teapot was hand painted by the bride’s grandmother.
An assortment of blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry jams were favors for the guests – the berries were hand picked by the bride’s mother and father months before the wedding, canned in their home, and personalized for Elizabeth’s wedding day!
Elizabeth and Jess met in college playing the game of foursquare, so it was only fitting that they
ended the wedding reception with a game of foursquare!
