From the very beginning, Louise and Hastings’s wedding vision was deeply personal and faith led. What started as a quiet moment in an old stone church where Louise first pictured Hastings waiting at the end of the aisle, became the spiritual and emotional foundation for the entire day. Rooted in tradition and intention, their wedding at the Memphis Country Club, photographed by Taylor Square Photography and planned with Audrey Hurst Events, was less about spectacle and more about a sacred ceremony they both cherished most, a private dinner with their parents the night before, and the presence of every loved one who shaped their story.
Timeless design choice: highly personal details
Thoughtful, highly personal touches defined the day, from a custom monogram and a wedding cake inspired by the lace of her gown to an embroidered handkerchief and handwritten note from her late grandmother tucked into her bouquet. Every element was carefully curated by their trusted creative team, resulting in a celebration that felt intimate and unmistakably theirs.
