Laura and John Robert’s modern classic wedding at Scarritt Bennett and The Bell Tower with icy blues and ivory touches will sure be one to remember.

In this modern-day love story, Laura and John Robert both “swiped right” on Bumble. "On our first date, we talked for hours, only leaving the coffee shop when its employees began to close for the night," Laura told us. "Wanting to continue our time together, we went for ice cream and walked around a popular Nashville neighborhood."

By the end of the night, both Laura and John Robert had the feeling they had finally found their forever person.

When John Robert later decided it was time to put a ring on it, he came to us. On August 24, 2018, he popped the question at The Bridge Building. The Pedestrian Bridge glowed with the words, "Laura, Will You Marry Me?" It just doesn't get sweeter than that!

They began their special day at Scarritt Bennett with lots of love and laughter. The bridal party popped a little bubbly before putting on their classic blue dresses, and the couple shared a touching moment during their first look before the ceremony began.

After the ceremony, guests made their way to The Bell Tower for a fun, dance-filled reception. Upon arrival, they indulged in some yummy hors d'oeuvres including candied bacon, pepper jelly pimento cheese bruschetta, french fry shooters, beef satay, brisket tacos, and hot chicken sliders. Dinner followed with an open buffet featuring a large assortment of selections. Safe to say no one left hungry!

Starting off the evening celebrations, Laura and John Robert shared their first dance to "Perfect" by Ed Sheeran to reminisce on the start of their journey.

After a memorable evening, the couple continued to dance their way through a tunnel of happy guests holding colorful maracas. John Robert gave Laura a final dip before heading off in their vintage blue car.

THE HISTORY OF THE FLOWER GIRL https://infinityhospitalitygroup.com/history-of-the-flower-girl/ Fri, 17 Feb 2017 21:04:45 +0000 http://blog.infinityeventsandcatering.com/?p=727 Ever wondered where the flower girl tradition came from? We did!

We just love these sweet flower girl photos, and that got us thinking. Where did the flower girl tradition come from?

There were many different variations of flower girls from the Victorian Era to the Elizabethan Era, but the flower girl dates all the way back to the Roman Empire.

In ancient Rome, flower girls carried sheaves of wheat and bouquets of herbs to bless the couple with fertility and prosperity. Later, in the 14th century, they often carried strands of garlic to ward off evil and jealous spirits.

It wasn't until nearly the 16th century that we began to see flowers incorporated with the traditional herb bouquets carried by the little ones. From symbols of fertility, happiness and love to symbols of fidelity and luck, flowers and herbs played a significant role in wishing the wedding couple well. Among the most common were roses, orange blossoms, rosemary, and baby's breath.

Today, the flower girl might not necessarily represent fertility or carry strands of garlic down the aisle to ward off spirits, but they remain an important part of many ceremonies.

So what do you think? Will you incorporate flower girls into your wedding? Let us know what the traditions means to you.
