Just as God said, “Let there be light!”, the second I walked into the Livery Stables {where we’re saying our I dos!}, I knew I’d be making the same declaration soon. I love love love the barn feel of our wedding venue and can’t be thankful enough that I won’t be sweating-at-the-wedding, but one of the drawbacks of having an entirely indoor wedding site in an authentic barn is that there is VERY little natural daylight. We have the option of opening two of the huge sliding barn doors {there’s one in front of the ceremony altar and one in the back that leads to the little green porch} and there are two teensy little windows on the side doors leading to parking, but there’s still a lot of darkness to overcome. And while they do have these dimmable gorgeous black antique lanterns that hang from the ceilings, I’ve just always had my heart set on having the ambience of Italian string lights at my wedding.

Enter Nashville Audio Visual. They have a large selection of lighting options for brides {everything from string lights to chandeliers and more!} and the most competitive prices on the market.  I want to Belle Meade-ify the Livery Stables a little by making it look richly lit. What better way than swags of gorgeous string lights, “candlelight”-colored accent lighting, and spotlights on our scrumptious, beautiful wedding cake and bar?

Needless to say, I’m stoked. And my guests won’t be sitting in the dark! :)
