Faith Promise Church Wedding in Knoxville

-Zach + Kelly-

When Drummers Marry…

When I think of traditional churches, I think of arches, pews, bad carpet and even worse lighting. But when you photograph a drummer’s wedding who, like Zach, has strong ties to his contemporary church and performs most weekends on a concert-ready stage, church weddings get much more interesting! My lenses felt right at home with the haze and moving lights. I give you Zach & Kelly’s Faith Promise Church Wedding in Knoxville.

Windy Day – Dreamy Sunset

It rained on and off all day, but the weather ended up beautiful although quite gusty “on the hill” at Faith Promise Church. Luckily, Zach & Kelly were an easy going bride and groom, and we rolled with the wind and worked around the rain throughout the day which ended with a photographer’s dream sunset.

Coral & Gray Color Scheme

Zach & Kelly’s color scheme of coral and gray was echoed throughout the decor alongside fun details like snare drum card holders and a yummy ice cream sundae bar. The couple chose not to have a wedding party, but included their close knit families as Zach’s father performed the ceremony and Kelly’s twin sister gave a heartfelt reading.

What a joyous day for two young hearts to promise forever to each other!

Congrats K/Z and #cheerstothecarringers !

Metallic wedding heels like these are everything right now.

Sorry about about that windblown look, Zach!

A matted print is a great alternative to a traditional guest book.

Snare drum card holders. Very creative!

Bring on that dreamy, wedding day sunset!

Uh oh…who gets to keep the bouquet?

I could smell the icing throughout the entire church. Yum!

Customized ice cream cups–great idea!
