So, hopefully by now you all remember the story about how Jon proposed to Lorie. If not, you can read about it here<\/strong><\/a>, but it went a little something like this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Both the proposal and dinner reception took place at Southall Eden in Franklin, TN<\/strong><\/a>– A location unlike any other I’ve been to. :) Jon chose to pop the question there because they’d already planned on having a wedding reception at the barn for family and friends following their semi-elopement in Tanzania, Africa.<\/strong><\/a> :) All caught up now? Good! Well, Lorie worked her booty off making their reception dinner on a budget something special, and she totally succeeded. :)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Not only did Lorie do all of the floral arrangements on her own, but she also made personalized coloring books for her nieces and nephews that came. :)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s pretty rare that we get place cards, so that<\/em> had to be documented. :)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

More of Lorie’s handy-work: I adored her dessert menu on a blackboard and mini-cherry pies handmade by Jon. :)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The night was perfect and allowed for us to mingle with Lorie and Jon’s families, and show off some of our Africa photos. :) Nate took some room shots once all the other guests left:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Special thanks to Dawn of Premiere Wed<\/strong><\/a> for helping Lorie’s vision come to life! (And for bringing me a Diet Coke that I completely forgot to pay you back for! Sorry!!)<\/p>\n
