Andrea & Trevor’s Garden-Inspired Wedding

Andrea and Trevor said their “I dos” in a Serenity Gardens ceremony and celebrated with their loved ones in a garden-inspired reception in our Lakeview Event Center, which was adorned with greenery and emerald details.


The Jacksonville couple originally met at work a few years back. They knew they had something special, yet had to hide their romance due to workplace circumstances. The couple persevered and have been together ever since!


When it came to choosing a venue, Andrea grew up in the Nashville area and knew The Estate at Cherokee Dock was the perfect place. Family and friends flew in from across the country to celebrate.


Working with I Do... Weddings, Andrea and Trevor had their ceremony in our romantic Serenity Gardens. White chairs were set across the lawn and decorated with white flower petals. At the end of the aisle was a beautiful circular floral arrangement by Flourishing Flowers that served as the perfect ceremony backdrop.


After saying their “I dos,” guests gathered in the Lakeview Event Center to celebrate the newlyweds. Their garden-inspired reception was decorated with elevated greenery and touches of rich emerald green and gold throughout. The tables were set with black linens, romantic candle lighting, emerald napkins, and gold flatware. To play into the garden inspiration, the stage was outlined with perfectly manicured hedges. 


Dinner was served by Daily Dish Catering before everyone danced the evening away to high energy band 30 Vice. And when the evening concluded, Andrea and Trevor left joyfully as guests waved gold pom-poms.
