Horn Wedding Day
Everyone meet Kelcey and John!! We had the pleasure of capturing this beautiful couple's big day! John and Kelcey knew of each other in high school but never actually had the chance to get to know each other. During their Junior year of college, they met over Christmas Break. A group of friends went out and John asked Kelcey for her number!! They continued to talk and hang out with their friend group over the break. The break was finally over and John had to head back to Knoxville for school. Kelcey went to Ole Miss and she had a longer break than he did, so he asked her to come to visit! Kelcey went up with a friend and sure enough… John asked her to be his girlfriend!!!
John and Kelcey continued to do long distance for the next two and a half years, driving six and a half hours every chance they got! Kelcey says it was the hardest thing they ever had to do, but it made their communication stronger than most. They both moved back to Memphis in May of 2015. The two dated for a little over five years before John decided to pop the question!!
On Kelcey’s 2018 spring break, John and Kelcey took a trip to New Orleans to visit friends! John insisted that they went to this restaurant that his mom suggested. He told Kelcey that they had to sit in the courtyard because it was beautiful!! Unfortunately, it began to rain and they got sat right beside the band. It was super loud and John was being super quiet. Kelcey could tell that John was getting frustrated but she didn’t know exactly why. The sun started to shine and the sun came out so Kelcey suggested that they go sit in the courtyard. They sat and enjoyed a bottle of champagne together but John was still being quite. John said “hey do you want to go take a picture in front of the fountain? It is so pretty!” Kelcey looked over, saw others standing there to take pictures and replied, “Nah I’m good, I just want to chill.” So John shuts down again and Kelcey gives up. A few moments later, John looks Kelcey in the eyes and says “I can't wait any longer.” He reaches down in his rainjacket, pulls out a small box, and gets on one knee!!! John says all of the sweetest things, but as most, Kelcey was so nervous and doesn’t remember a thing! All she remembers is John saying “Kelcey will you marry me?” Kelcey asked about six times, “Are you serious?” but then proceeded to say YES!!!
Kelcey and John got married on June 1st at Annesdale Mansion in Memphis, TN and it was a beautiful day!!! We filmed this day alongside the Katie Norrid Photography team! Kelcey wore a stunning Paloma Blanca gown from Maggie Louise, and her makeup was done by Alicia Lee. She looked absolutely gorgeous and the two made our job so easy!! John was completely blown away by Kelcey when he saw her! Annesdale was decorated beautifully with flowers from Kamille Martin with BettsMade! The ceremony was so sweet and the reception was a real party!! Everyone enjoyed the cake by Cakes By Carolyn and the delicious food by CFY Catering! The Soul Shockers Band got everyone off of their feet to enjoy the bride and groom! Check out their highlight film below!
