I first met Ethan and Kady about a year before their gorgeous East Tennessee wedding at the one-of-a-kind RT Lodge in Maryville. Sidebar here: If you live in East Tennessee, and haven’t had the opportunity to visit RT Lodge, you must do so as soon as possible. From their gorgeously private and lush grounds, which contain Secret Garden-esque pathways and wooded trails, to their exquisite food, not just as a Knoxville Wedding Photographer, but as a resident of this gorgeous part of the country - RT Lodge has quickly become one of my favorite places to shoot a wedding or just spend an evening.

Back to Ethan & Kady. :) I met these Georgia peeps at their Ijam’s Quarry Engagement Session over a year ago, and they remain two of the loviest people I have had the pleasure of working with. Their love for one another is genuine, timeless and it shows in their wedding photos.

They chose RT Lodge for several reasons, but as Kady said “It felt like it perfectly fit Ethan's outdoor side while still feeling classy and not over the top fancy. We loved that all out friends and family could spend the entire weekend together at RT Lodge.”

Another reason I love Kady, is when I sent her Knox bridal questionnaire to complete, she returned it with a note that made me laugh out loud, because she is absolutely right, I appreciated the heads-up: My question read as follows: " Q: Please include any additional information that you feel we may ned for your wedding day: …. and Kady’s answer: A: Thought you may appreciate the heads up on the spelling error. I am the worst at grammar. "Please include any additional information that you feel we may ned *NEED* for your wedding day" What an absolute angel on earth for letting me know! <3

From Kady’s Dusty Blue Wedding gown, to the perfectly done details, her wedding inspiration was found in: Show Me Your MuMu, Simple Classy, Greenery, Dust Blue.
