Natalie & Matt’s Fall Smoky Mountain Wedding at The Trillium

Nestled in the breathtaking Smoky Mountains, The Trillium is one of the most sought-after Tennessee wedding venue. It sets the perfect backdrop for a luxurious fall wedding. And that’s exactly what Natalie and Matt got when they tied the knot on Saturday, November 2, 2024. Surrounded by vibrant fall foliage, show-stopping florals by Wither and Bloom, and their closest friends and family, this celebration was nothing short of spectacular.

A Perfect Autumn Day at Tennessee’s Favorite Wedding Venue

As the leaves painted the mountainside in hues of red, orange, and yellow, Natalie and Matt’s wedding reflected the rich beauty of the season. With the expert guidance of Everly & Co, the couple’s dream day was brought to life, from the initial planning to the final celebration. From start to finish, the day was filled with love, laughter, and some truly unforgettable moments.

Getting Ready in Style

The wedding day began with excitement and joy as Natalie and Matt prepared for their big day at their Tennessee wedding venue of choice. Matt and his groomsmen gathered in The Trillium’s entertaining groom suite. Altogether, they were the perfect picture of sophistication dressed in black tuxedos with bow ties. And the floral pocket squares perfectly complemented the vibrant autumn colors.

Meanwhile, Natalie and her bridal party took over the spacious bridal suite. With 16 of Natalie’s closest gal pals, there was no shortage of fun and excitement. The bridal party shared a champagne toast in matching black silk PJs. This certainly added a playful and personal touch to the morning, as did Natalie’s Converse dancing shoes! As the day progressed, the bridesmaids donned elegant maroon gowns in varying styles. Each carried a unique wicker purse filled with florals in place of traditional bouquets.

Natalie, a true vision of elegance, wore a show-stopping dress with intricate floral lace details, an off-the-shoulder design, and sheer sleeves that flowed gracefully. With gorgeous hair and makeup by Effortless Beauty, her full-length veil seemed to float as she walked. Natalie was undoubtedly the epitome of bridal beauty.

The First Look & Bridal Party Photos

Set against the backdrop of an ombre archway adorned with fall foliage, Natalie and Matt’s first look was nothing short of magical. With vibrant florals, golden accents, and a perfect autumn sky, the moment felt particularly timeless. The couple shared some quiet moments together before heading into a group photo session with their bridal party—23 people strong! This wedding party was as big as it was beautiful, and the energy was palpable.

A Touching Tennessee Wedding Venue Ceremony

Guests were welcomed through a beautifully designed breezeway, framed with floral accents and an arched welcome sign. The ceremony took place under blue skies, with sweeping views of the Smoky Mountains behind them. At last, Natalie and Matt exchanged vows surrounded by nature’s splendor.

A special seat was reserved in honor of the late father of the bride, Dave, with a beautiful bouquet of orange flowers placed in his memory. It was a heartfelt and moving tribute, reminding everyone of the deep connections that make a wedding day truly meaningful.

Cocktail Hour on the Open Air Patio

Following the ceremony, guests were treated to an elegant cocktail hour on The Trillium’s open-air patio. The stunning floral arrangements continued here, with an eye-catching grand floral display and gold shelves showcasing the vibrant autumn colors. Guests mingled by the bar, enjoying drinks from Single Barrel Events and the breathtaking views of the mountains as the sun dipped lower in the sky.

This area was especially captivating – with a maple-and-white designer dance floor, florals and lanterns draping from the ceiling, lounge areas with fire pits and heaters, and cocktail tables – all of which can now be found on The Trillium Rental Shop! The space truly captured the beauty of fall, making for an unforgettable experience.

Reception in the Grand Hall: A Fairytale Celebration

As the sun set over the mountains and guests moved into The Trillium’s Grand Hall, they were greeted by yet another scene straight out of a fairytale. The custom seating chart, showcasing beautiful floral designs, guided guests to their seats where they were met with luxurious table settings. Gold-rimmed glass chargers, velvet napkins, and fluted wine glasses were just the beginning.

The floral arrangements continued with colorful blooms, taper candles, and votive lights creating a warm, romantic atmosphere. The head table was elevated with farm tables and a table arbor (also now available for rent at The Trillium Shop), draped in florals that framed the guests of honor perfectly. Dinner was a delightful three-course meal by Spaces in the City, with a late-night snack that had everyone talking.

Nightfall: Dancing & Celebration

As the night sky settled over the Smoky Mountains, the celebration kicked into high gear! Guests hit the dance floor, where the DJ from Stephen Goff Entertainment kept the energy high.
