Romance is in full bloom for these organic farmers and their Nashville Wedding is a complete reflection of this. Vintage elements, organic details and pure love abound as they said their vows on the very spot where they first met. How unbelievably perfect and romance-novelesque is that? Plus the images of photo genius Harwell Photography are positively bursting with beauty from this Tennessee farm soirée. Catch all the goodness here!











We featured Lauren and Paschal’s absolutely gorgeous wedding invitation suite from Wiley Valentine and wedding trailer by Three Ring Media a while back on The Little Black Book Blog (right here). If you missed it, you definitely need to take a look back!

From Harwell Photography…The story of Lauren and Paschal is truly one scripted for a fairy-tale. It wasn’t but just over a year ago that one of Paschal’s long time friends was laying gravel on the road outside of Lauren’s farm. He knew that the two had a lot in common, including organic farming, so naturally he called Lauren a week later to ask if he could bring Paschal by to meet her. Lauren accepted, and their conversation began planting seeds of a life-long commitment that these two would soon harvest. Though patience is a virtue that these two farmers admire in one another, it wasn’t necessary during the duration of their early courtship. The two found in less than three weeks that their lifetime companion was right in front of them.
From the start, Lauren, along with her mother, Teresa and sister, Abby had a vision of what the wedding would look like; vintage, organic and romantic. Although creativity and design is inherent to the Palmer women, they solicited the assistance of Nashville event planner Dori Thornton of The Social Office to ensure that their vision was brought to life. It was obvious to all that the only proper location for this joyous affair would be the farm that first brought Lauren and Palmer together. So with Bloomsbury Farm as the chosen backdrop, Dori and Teresa got to work assembling the team to create the perfect day for Lauren and Paschal.
The ceremony took place in the exact spot where Lauren and Paschal first met, on the bluff overlooking the farm. Teresa found an incredible vintage lace from The Iron Gate in Franklin, TN that was draped over two trees where the couple was married. The love of Lauren and Paschal was evident with their fairytale evening and shows how meeting on a gravel road can lead to a love that is organically grown.

What a beautiful wedding gown! We absolutely love it!
So honored and excited to be on the amazing SMP today! Lauren & Paschal were such a perfect couple! I loved all the amazing vendors that I worked with on this wedding!
curious where the times are from!
"ties"
What beautiful photos from an absolutely beautiful Wedding! So happy for a great couple!! It was a blast to be a part of it!
I realize the rings aren't necessarily part of the wedding planning, but is any information available on them?? Love!
Please be a video, pease be a video! Must...have...more...
Obsessed with (in the particular order): dress, lace canopy, open-air tent, vintage farm truck!, twinkle lights in the trees, menu (who wouldn't want to sit down for a "farm feast"?!), moss monogram, giant fork photo prop, super cool wooden couches, doughnut hole drink stirrers and those fabulous mini pies! Phew! I don't think I've ever seen a wedding with so many enviable details. Plus...the bride in the forest with a horse?! I hope she decides to print that photo and frame it in her home, it is so remarkably beautiful and wonderful and I am running out of words to describe this wedding.
I visit SMP every single day and find that rustic/vintage/DIY-type weddings - charming as they are - tend to have a way of looking exactly the same. This one is truly standout, I have never seen anything quite like it.
I am completely blown away by this delightful celebration, lets hope we are treated to a Buying Guide or video post as well! One of my favourite weddings ever featured...here or on any other wedding blog.
Congrats Jeremy - GORGEOUS pictures of this awesome wedding!
**In no particular order
I would love to know where the wedding rings are from?? SO GORGEOUS!
Beautiful photography! You captured all of the many details that made this wedding exceptional. Even more wonderful were the bride and groom and family which made our part of this wedding most enjoyable. Thank you for letting us be a part of this beautiful event.
What I really have to know is, where can I find that ring? I'm obsessed! Absolutely gorgeous wedding.
I agree on the wedding rings!! Wow!

As a Nashville bride myself, it's a shame that venues like this farm aren't easier to find!
Would love to know where the rose gold wedding rings are from?! Many thanks!

I loved this wedding when I saw it in the winter 2011 issue of Weddings Unveiled magazine. I assume your submission policy allows weddings that have already been published elsewhere?
Were those couches DIY or rented/bought? They look AWESOME, but they look they may actually be a doable seating DIY! Any info would be greaet :)
Do you know if the venue/barn is available for weddings?
Jessica,
The barn/venue is Lauren's farm which is not open to the public.
I never thought I loved gold until I saw these rose gold rings. Gorgeous! Also, I was wondering where the couple got those vintage personalized seed packets? Very cute idea.
I love the seed packets. Can you tell me if you purchased the envelopes and then printed or is that a stamp? Thank you!!!
beautiful photos! i feel an 85 1.2 on a lot of them...so pretty
