In the heart of Nashville, where party busses and bachelorettes thrive, we found ourselves at a sacred oasis where a magical evening unfolded on March 26, 2023. As unpredictable as the Tennessee weather can be in March, this year granted Stevie and Griffin a truly enchanting backdrop for their wedding festivities. The elegance of The Cordelle provided the perfect canvas for Stevie and Griffin’s iconic wedding, dressed in lush greens and pristine whites, painting a picture of romance that would linger in the hearts of all who attended. We chatted with Beautiful Things Floral & Design about Stevie and Griffin’s wedding. Check it out below!

Stevie and Griffin are actual couple goals. With easygoing personalities, they are the definition of chill! And, these two really only had one goal for their big day: soak up every moment with their favorite people who were bitten by Stevie and Griffin’s travel bug and traveled all the way to Nashville for their big day! Nashville holds a special place in the couple’s heart, as they met here while attending Belmont University! It was only fitting that they tied the knot in the city that started it all… but that’s not the only important detail that made its way into their wedding day – Daddy’s Dogs. Stevie, as insanely cool as she already is, actually won a hot dog-eating contest a few years ago! So, naturally, they needed to highlight that incredible accomplishment on their wedding day! Plus – what Nashville night out is complete without the delicious Nashville staple?
Sticking to their vision of a wedding day filled with joy, unforgettable moments, and a celebration of the love that envelops them, both within and beyond Nashville, Stevie and Griffin decided to enlist the help of a few friends and family members who are wedding professionals themselves! Quickly checking off the list of their friends and family who acted as the photographer, planner, pastor, and designer, Stevie and Griffin’s wedding day was brought to life by vendors who truly love and know them – an added level of love! And that’s not all – Stevie’s sister also contributed her creative touch, crafting dreamy details like the seating chart and table numbers. The result? A wedding day infused with pure love from every angle.
We were thrilled to be the wedding florist for Stevie and Griffin. When we first met Stevie, she expressed her love for greenery and a simple color palette. Lucky for us, she put her trust in our team. Teaming up with their friend and experienced planner, Kelly, who’s been in the Nashville wedding scene for years, was a great move. Stevie, Griffin, and Kelly all met in college at Belmont University, and they trusted Kelly (who is also a member of our team!!) to help make their vision come true.
But here’s the extra special part: we wanted to surprise them on their big day with some unique upgrades. Their trust in us meant a lot, so we went all out. We adorned the ceremony aisle with bursts of roses that seemed to bloom from the ground. This small touch, which Stevie had shown immense fondness for during our first meeting, moved her to tears of joy! To match their cool and calm style, we designed a modern and luxurious reception with sleek architectural-style floral centerpieces. And we wanted to show off our floral team’s skills, so we repurposed the ceremony flowers to create a stunning backdrop for their sweetheart table. It turned out so sweet and made for some amazing photos!
Their stunning wedding day in Nashville, Tennessee, overflowed with many incredible moments worth reliving, from that touching first look that left eyes misty to a dance party that can only be described as EPIC. The love, the laughter, and what can only be described as the true charm of Music City made Stevie and Griffin’s wedding impossible to forget. With praise and admiration flowing from friends and family throughout the night, it was clear that their wedding would be legendary. Comments like “This is hands down the best wedding I’ve ever attended!” and “I’ve never witnessed such a beautiful event!” echoed through the air, solidifying the fact that this wedding was an absolute standout.
