We had such an incredible experience with Hidden Spring Venue! From start to finish, the staff was a joy to work with—so responsive, helpful, and truly dedicated to making our day seamless. The grounds are breathtaking. The lake and outdoor spaces provided the most gorgeous backdrop for photos, and our guests couldn't stop commenting on how stunning the entire property was! The bridal suite was a beautiful, relaxing space to get ready in, and having golf carts available on-site made moving around the property effort-free. Parking was also excellent and convenient for everyone. We held both our daughter's ceremony and reception on-site, and the flow of the entire evening felt so natural and smooth. Being an outdoor venue, it was such a relief knowing they have a great backup plan in case of rain. Even though we had a hot July day, the indoor AC worked great and kept everyone cool and comfortable once we moved inside! The reception hall itself is spacious, elegant, and photographs so beautifully. We hosted approximately 175–180 guests, and while the room felt lively and full, there was more than adequate space to celebrate. A huge bonus was their decor closet—having access to so many items saved us a ton of time and money! On top of that, the venue was exceptionally vendor-friendly, making load-in and setup a breeze for our caterer, DJ, and florist. We had a wonderful experience from beginning to end. If you are looking for a beautiful space with an amazing team, we cannot recommend Hidden Spring Venue enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
Cedar Hills Farm exceeded our expectations in every way. The owners were incredibly easy to work with and communicated with us and our coordinator every step of the way, which was especially crucial when tornado and flood warnings hit right after our ceremony—they stayed calm and kept everyone safe and informed. Our guests traveled from across the U.S. and other countries, and they were all blown away by how stunning the venue is. The space felt fresh and well-maintained, and we loved how seamlessly the day came together. One thing to keep in mind if you're planning a large wedding is that while the indoor space is impressive, it can feel tight during rainy seasons, so you'll want to plan accordingly if you're expecting a big crowd. Overall, the owners' supportive nature and attention to detail made our day feel truly special.

I don’t know how anyone could get married without Jenny and her team! From our very first meeting her enthusiasm and love of weddings was clear. Before the Vows provided professional and knowledgeable coordination service for our wedding day. Jenny and her team did everything in their power to bring all our visions to reality for the big day. Their communication was quick, clear, and efficient throughout the planning process, which we greatly appreciated during an often hectic time. They created a detailed timeline that was easy for everyone to follow (tailored to bridal party and vendors) and took on communicating with all vendors so we could focus on other details. This level of service and organization was extremely valuable in making our day truly magical. On the day itself, Before the Vows handled all vendor relationships and troubleshooting so we could relax and enjoy celebrating with friends and family.

Luxe Filmography is a luxury boutique wedding brand based out of Chattanooga, TN. We take pride in our attention to detail and really getting to know our couples to serve them a wedding film that spotlights their personalities.

Patrick was fantastic!! As I was doing research on videographers, I came across Patrick and his team. I fell in love with his art style, and I was so excited that we were able to schedule him. I was appreciative beforehand for the attentive emails and responses to questions. He was very quick to respond to us. The day of he did a great job at adapting to a few hiccups during our wedding (weather, timing, things out of our control), and still made us feel comfortable throughout the stress of the day. One thing we asked Patrick before we hired him was if he could send us our highlight video somewhat speedy because we wanted to show it for another wedding reception we were having. We were grateful he was able to! He sent us the video a day before our reception, and my husband and I cried watching it. My husband caught me watching it several times once we got it. It was so beautiful. My dad told me that it was worth every penny, and several people who have seen it said it was the best wedding video they've ever seen! One person said it reminded them of the ending of "The Bachelor" when the couple finally gets together! Talk about quality video and story telling! If I were to sum up the style of our video from Luxe Filmography I would say "Extravagant Modern Fairytale." What more could you want for your wedding day? One touch I especially liked was Patrick suggested that we write letters to each other to exchange before the wedding, and it made for some beautiful story telling in our film. If you are hesitant about getting a videographer I promise you won't regret getting one. And if I were to recommend a videographer it will always be Luxe Filmography. I told Patrick that if we ever do a vow renewal we will 100% ask him to film it for us.

Her communication was always effective, timely, and considerate, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process.

There were barely any leftovers by the end of the night for our wedding of 70 guests, which is a testament to how much everyone enjoyed the desserts. On top of that, the dessert table (macarons, cookies, brownies, cake balls, and a two-tiered cake) were super affordable, making this an amazing value for the fantastic quality.

Hi, I'm Rachel! I'm the photographer and heart behind R Photos, based in Chattanooga and serving couples across Knoxville, Nashville, the Smoky Mountains, and beyond. I've been photographing weddings and elopements for 8+ years, and I still get butterflies every single time. My approach is simple: document first, curate second. I'm there as a quiet witness to your day, capturing the real, unscripted moments as they happen rather than staging everything from scratch. All are welcome here, and I'd love to be part of your story.

I cannot recommend Rachel Kosky enough! From the very beginning, she made our elopement completely stress-free. She truly took care of every detail. All we had to do was show up after hair and makeup and enjoy our day, knowing everything else had been thoughtfully planned. She was organized, professional, and made the entire experience feel so easy and relaxed. As our photographer, she was also incredible to work with. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and our photos turned out absolutely beautiful—better than we could have imagined. The turnaround time was amazing as well. We received sneak peeks so quickly, and our full gallery was delivered much sooner than expected without sacrificing quality. If you’re planning an elopement or a small, intimate wedding, I wholeheartedly recommend her. She made one of the most important days of our lives as stress-free and enjoyable as possible, and we are so grateful for everything she did!

Review from mother of the groom: I recently (Feb. 2024) used Catering Cart for a rehearsal dinner. Our experience throughout the process (planning to event) was great. Tara and I emailed many times during the planning stage and she always responded timely and answered MANY questions to get every detail just right. The night of the event went so smoothly. The staff (Amanda, Brandi, Daniel and Levi) showed up on time, were professional and kept us on schedule for the night. At one point we (myself and the staff) realized the flow of the night would go a little smoother if we made a few changes and they were happy to accommodate. Many guests commented on how good the food was (Mexican theme buffet). I do not live in the Chattanooga area but if I did, I would definitely use Catering Cart again!

Julie was amazing! She was so organized and I didn’t have to worry at all. She has sneak peaks back to us within a day and I can’t wait to see the final album. She also did our engagement pictures which were perfect!

We believe that photographs capture a moment in time that are timeless treasures not only for ourselves but also for future generations to be able to look back on.

Lydia's Lavender Lane is a small high-end florist shop in historic downtown South Pittsburg. Local + Woman Owned by a mother-daughter team who has been a part of the floral industry for over 5 years! We treat our brides like family, take what you have dreamed of, and make it come to life.

While planning my wedding I was close to pulling the trigger on faux flowers to save money, when I was fortunate enough to discover Lydia's Lavender Lane through Zola. They were a breeze to work with and were able to give a custom quote that included just about everything I wanted within my budget. I absolutely loved how everything turned out! I only wish I had higher quality photos from the photographer to share.

Effortless Experience. Heirloom Photos. I'm Paige! I'm a Tennessee based, vivacious photographer thriving on capturing candid connection + telling YOUR unique love story. I love to support my clients by giving them a carefree wedding day experience that makes them forget they are having their photo taken and provide them the ability to get lost in the magic of the moment. Each image produced by Ivey Photo is a tangible heirloom of your wedding day that will be treasured for generations to come.

I have had the honor of working with Paige on a few occasions. I am a minister and perform wedding ceremonies. When I first saw Paige's photos, I was blown away by the beauty of each and every picture she captured, even the ones with me in them. The quality of her photography is impressive. I also love how discreet Paige is while she is taking pictures during the ceremony. I did not know where she was or the pictures she was taking until I saw them. Paige has a loving, caring personality, totally professional, and is a complete joy to be around. So much so, I asked her to take pictures of my grown daughter who has autism. My daughter can be a challenge, but Paige has the patients of a saint and took the time needed to work with my daughter to capture images that are utterly amazing. If you are looking for a photographer who will capture your day to its fullest, where you will have many beautiful, treasured keepsakes, you have found her. I adore Paige with Ivey Photo and would recommend her to all!

Hi! I'm Christin, a destination wedding photographer based in Chattanooga, TN. Specializing in timeless and artful imagery, my expertise goes beyond just taking photos; it's about crafting a visual story that reflects the joy, love, and unique spirit of your celebration.

Working with Christin at Christin Sofka Photography was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding journey. From our very first inquiry to the days following our wedding, Christin has been nothing short of phenomenal—responsive, professional, fun, and such a warm presence throughout. We initially found her because of her stunning photography style, but it was her incredible personality that sealed the deal. From our first call, she genuinely wanted to get to know us—our story, our vibe, our vision—and it showed in everything she did. Before we even officially hired her, Christin was helping us find a venue that aligned with our dream, connecting us with other amazing vendors, and offering support in ways far beyond the role of a photographer. She was in it with us every step of the way. I’m usually awkward in front of a camera, but somehow Christin made it feel effortless and fun. She created an environment where we could just be ourselves—and that joy, love, and personality came through in every photo. Our pictures shine with who we are. Every idea we had, she embraced and brought to life in ways that exceeded our expectations. She was just as excited as we were the entire time—and honestly, I can’t imagine our day without her. Christin is not just a photographer—she’s a true artist, a cheerleader, and a calming, creative force you’ll be so lucky to have by your side. If you’re considering hiring her: do it. You’ll be singing her praises too.
