Jackie & Morgan’s Terracotta Autumn Wedding at Fox Meadow Barn | Winchester Wedding Photographer

The weddings that stay closest to my heart are the ones where I feel like fast friends with the bride and groom. That’s usually easy with my ENP couples, but second shooting can feel a bit more removed sometimes. Not with Gracie Withers’ couples, though! I had the honor of associate shooting for Gracie’s sweet childhood friend and client Morgan, and her lovely groom Jackie for their Fox Meadow Barn wedding.

Gracie had just welcomed home her baby girl, so I got to tap in to love on this sweet couple on their special day on her behalf. From the moment I walked into Morgan’s hotel room, I felt the warmth and love in the room between her and her bridesmaids. Everyone was relaxed but so excited.

The good vibes continued when I worked with Jackie to get his Getting Ready portraits and set him up at the First Look location. Fox Meadow Barn boasts gorgeous open fields, but just a short drive to a property near the wedding venue gave us stunning fall foliage to backdrop their First Look. Jackie reacted appropriately stunned at the first glance at his gorgeous bride. They then shared sweet, tearful moments as they read aloud their vows to one another before the ceremony.

The beautiful, glowing fall day continued with their sweet bridal party arriving for portraits. Morgan’s bridesmaids impressed me so much. They were all giddy for the happy couple, and extremely supportive and helpful! And Jackie’s groomsmen were perfectly pleasant. Aside, his best man looked to me to resemble Lin-Manuel Miranda (luckily he gets that a lot because — as a huge Hamilton fan — I couldn’t help but mention it aloud).

Overall, the ceremony to the reception was perfectly lovely for Morgan and Jackie. They achieved a perfect fall event, mixing charming rustic autumn details with a touch of elegant gold decor. And Fox Meadow Barn made for the perfect, versatile wedding venue for them to tie the knot. Everyone had so much fun. And I’m so excited to finally share the highlights from their special day.

Every detail of the Madelyn Tenney Events Spring Design Showcase 2025 was pure magic. As an Atlanta wedding photographer, I had the joy of being invited to capture not only the beautifully curated spaces but also the intimate behind-the-scenes moments that made this spring showcase possible. From lush florals to elegant table settings, the event was a treasure trove of spring wedding inspiration for brides dreaming up their perfect day.

Hosted at Nova Studio in the heart of Atlanta, this carefully crafted experience was designed to set the tone for the upcoming wedding season—and it did not disappoint.

Spring Wedding Inspiration for Modern Southern Brides

The design vision for the showcase–Prima Flora–embraced soft pastels, delicate textures, and fresh seasonal styling. Think romantic blush tones, textured linens, and floral-forward installations. Madelyn and her talented team created a setting that felt simultaneously elevated and welcoming. It was truly a perfect exhibition of what sophisticated spring weddings can be in Georgia.

As I arrived early to document the event setup, I was able to photograph the team in their element: adjusting linens, styling stationery, and rehearsing the layout one last time. These behind-the-scenes moments revealed just how much heart went into this event. It’s easy to see why so many brides trust Madelyn Tenney Events to bring their dream weddings to life.

Behind the Scenes with Madelyn Tenney Events

Before the doors opened, I had the privilege of capturing team headshots for the women behind Madelyn Tenney Events. Their energy, collaboration, and vision made it clear this wasn’t just a design showcase—it was a heartfelt celebration of creativity and community.

The environment was buzzing with excitement as florists arranged final stems and vendors fluffed the final cushions. The team’s chemistry was undeniable, and it translated directly into the seamless flow of the event itself.

The Madelyn Tenney Events Spring Design Showcase

At the heart of the showcase were the intentional design vignettes. Each space told a story, offering spring wedding inspiration tailored for modern Southern brides. One standout element was a centerpiece floral installation by Marigo Flowers, assisted by Pollen Floral Company. It floated above a table layered with blush-toned linens from BBJ La Tavola, catching the light beautifully throughout the afternoon.

An eye-catching ice sculpture by Ice Sculpture Inc. ATL added a playful, elevated touch to the scene, while live entertainment from Jewel the Ballerina captivated attendees with ethereal movement, bringing life to the experience. Glasswing Rentals curated tableware that sparkled under the natural light of Nova Studio, and JC Rental Collective and Party Bound contributed pieces that gave each setup personality and polish.

Why This Event Matters for Atlanta Brides

If you’re a bride planning a wedding in Atlanta, Savannah, or North Georgia looking for fresh spring wedding inspiration, events like this one are invaluable. They don’t just showcase trends—they display the talent of local, trustworthy vendors who are passionate about what they do.

Every vendor at this showcase brought their A-game. Seeing each one’s work in person—and getting to document it as a film-inspired wedding photographer—was such an honor.

What I Loved Most as an Atlanta Wedding Photographer

Photographing this spring wedding inspiration at Nova Studio was a dream. The soft filtered light made the colors pop in a way that felt timeless and true-to-color. My goal is always to deliver film-inspired wedding photos that feel both editorial and authentic. The setting created by Madelyn Tenney Events was ideal for that.

Being trusted to document the designs and the passion behind them—team portraits, set-up, genuine laughter—reminds me why I love this work. These are the moments that couples don’t always see. These are the images that reveal the effort, energy, and heart poured into a couple’s day long before they say I do.
