A Eclectic Dara's Garden East Tennessee Wedding

"After being in a serious accident in 2014, Brittany felt "quite literally broken" and was afraid she would never love again. That changed the day she met Collin- who helped her see the beauty she holds and the support he has for her. They both share the love of life, laughter, tattoos, cars, and Harry Potter (you'll see elements of these things throughout these images). They knew they were meant to be and in October they became Mr & Mrs at Dara's Garden in Knoxville TN in a quarry surrounded by the fall forests. Brittany, having such an eclectic soul, made sure her decor was full of simplistically yet reflected their quirky relationship. There wedding day was full of happy tears, champagne pops, laughter, dancing, and LOVE.

"Collin and I met at a local car show; which happened to be the morning of a terrible accident I was in. He was dating a high school friend of mine so we stopped to chat, and that morning he met my (at the time) boyfriend of 8 years. We parted ways but little did we know only a couple months later we would be reunited.. My boyfriend didn’t survive the accident and I was left completely broken, emotionally and physically. I had a year long recovery, and Collin was the one to, quite literally, pick me up off the ground and make me whole again. We went through it all, and almost gave up, but never left each other’s side. I believe in fate, and I believe in true love. I met Collin that morning for a reason, and now he IS my reason. He is my person. The Derek to my Meredith. The Ross to my Rachel."

A beautiful love story and the most beautiful Dara's Garden wedding. Head on down to take a peek!
