FAQs

Question

What inspired us to choose this location for our big day?

Answer

We chose Pumpkin Center because it is the historic home of Jane's aunt and uncle—a place filled with memories from many holidays and summers spent together. It has always been a place of comfort, beauty, and a slower pace that feels grounding and meaningful to us. Set in Tennessee, especially during the fall, the natural beauty of the season makes it an even more special and fitting place to celebrate our wedding.
