Heather & Sam’s Intimate Wedding Weekend

Heather and Sam said their vows in front of a group of about twenty family members and close friends at the Dark Horse Manor in Franklin, Tennessee.

After the wedding, the family enjoyed a private dinner, followed by dancing in the on-site party barn. The next day, friends and family gathered again to celebrate the newlyweds during a country-western themed goodbye party, complete with line dancing, barbecue, and cowboy hats.

Heather and Sam’s wedding was a reminder that the most beautiful moments sometimes lie in the small things, in the connections with friends and family, and in the assurance that you will always have one another.

Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Zipp!
