Megan and Josh celebrated their picturesque wedding at the Estate at Cherokee Dock. The day was imbued with the charming essence of the South, creating an exceptionally special experience for the couple and their guests. Cherokee Dock is conveniently located in Lebanon, Tennessee. With just a short 30-minute drive, this is the perfect venue for planning a wedding in Nashville. Originally built in 1960, a nearly 13,000 sq. ft. Southern Colonial mansion sits at the center of 15 acres of private property. The estate exudes the grandeur you’d Expect. It boasts original gardens, luxury stables, paddocks, a guest house, a pool house, and more, all set against acres of scenic lakefront. Fun Fact: This remarkable venue was once the beloved home of the award-winning artist, actor, and author, Reba McEntire. With this being said, Mon Photography and Foraged Films did an incredible job capturing the essence of this renowned celebration!

Wedding Day Attire

The couple and their bridal party radiated elegance. Megan looked dazzling in her dress from Glitz Nashville, while the bridesmaids donned lovely champagne dresses by Birdy Grey. Hunter Paige Salon worked their magic on the bridal party’s hair and makeup, resulting in captivating looks all around. These ensembles beautifully complemented the groom and groomsmen’s navy blue tuxedos, culminating in a harmonious look that left a lasting impression.
