Alisha & Ryan, Wedding at Baylor Chapel and Reception at The Sheraton Read House, Chattanooga, TN Photographed by Liz Power Photography

The Armstrong family has every reason to be proud of Ryan. He is a friendly, personable young man who knows how to make good decisions. No doubt one of the best decisions he has made is to marry Alisha. My husband, Terry, likes to quote that a happy marriage is where each one thinks they got the better of the deal. These two should have a happy marriage.

I love the architecture on this high school campus. Here is the gorgeous Alisha posed in one of the archways.

The Sheraton Read House has several rooms to host receptions but the Silver Ballroom may be the most elegant.

A fun ride in a horse drawn carriage, well-wishers waving from the balcony, two beautiful people very much in love. Life is good!

Photobucket

Congratulations to Alisha and Ryan and God Bless!

I hope all of the Boston Red Sox fans get to see a repeat from last year (Ryan is from Boston). Those Rays are tough.

By the way, when you view the slideshow will you take special note of the floral arrangements by our good friend Amanda Williams of Divine Designs. Also we are always excited to work with Soundforce and to get to see our friend Heath. On another note, the cakes were by another good friend, Kimmie Garner, from Kimmies. She is such an excellent cake maker. We really love her cakes. And the elegant settings of the linens is from our friends at the White Table.

I hope I am not leaving anyone out of this list because one of the things that makes our job so enjoyable is the wonderful people we get to meet and work with.

Jennifer & Tripp, Wedding at 1st Centenary UMC and Reception at The Foodworks, Photographed by Liz Power Photography

Here you see Jennifer and Tripp's wedding rings. I used the wedding announcement as a backdrop and it really summarizes what turned out to be a great day. Those who received the invitation and attended the wedding will testify that they witnessed a beautiful ceremony. Jennifer was absolutely stunning.

Photobucket

Here is the gorgeous bride who is beautiful on the inside too. She is a loving, gracious and caring person and I loved being there to photograph her wedding.

Congratulations to everyone and a tip of the hat to Scott Adams and Troy Sutton from the Foodworks Riverside for an excellent reception and Jill Allen , Director of Sales and Catering for Four Bridges Catering, for some really excellent food. I hope you will take special note of the beautiful floral arrangements from Highland Florist and Design Center.

We also want to recognize Shane Zerangue and Life Productions. Shane is really one of the most talented videographers in this area. If you watched the slideshow you probably noticed how beautiful her dress was which came from Monica's. Special thanks to our friend and former bride, Michelle Wilson, for providing some excellent shots of the ceremony. Jason Peterson, a classmate of Jennifer's, was the DJ and he did a great job for his company Premium Sounds.

Amy & Duncan, Wedding at St. Timothy's Episcopal Church and Reception at The Hunter Art Museum, Photographed by Liz Power Photography

Amy & Duncan's wedding took place at the historic St. Timothy's Episcopal Church on Signal Mountain. Amy and her bridesmaids dressed at her parents' gorgeous home and, being in her childhood bedroom, made me think of the movie, Father of the Bride.

Photobucket

When Amy descended the stairs everyone voiced their approval with oohs and aahs! She is a beautiful young lady

Photobucket

Photobucket

Finally it was time to go to the church but not before sinking a free throw on the outdoor basketball court and playing "Amazing Grace" on the bagpipes. This was a first for me...never had a bride do that before.

Photobucket

I think this collage sums up the rest of the day. The reception was at The Hunter Art Museum which is pictured here from across the glass walking bridge. Our friend Beryl van den Burgh took this picture and helped out the whole day as an associate photographer.
