Classic Glam Wedding | Carriage House Stable | 90 Guests
We love this Classic Glam Wedding that took place on a southern winter day here at Cross Creek Ranch. Sweet nuptials were held in our open-air Chapel. While our Chapel is now an exclusive ceremony location for the White Oak Barn, we are still excited to share the beauty of it from Hannah + Tyler’s special day! Keep scrolling as H + T gave us an inside look into their inspiration, vision, and overall personal style for their unforgettable event. See all the glitter, glam, and sweet moments captured by Stephanie Lanni Photography.

Tell us a little bit more about the deciding factors that led you to book your day with us?
Having a one-stop-shop for everything! Many venues advertise as that but they exclude having someone help during the day and taking down decorations, etc. We felt this was the biggest bang for your buck and really enjoyed the virtual tour. Originally we were going with the French Country Inn but after viewing it in person we were able to switch to the Chapel. Having so many different options at the same venue was a big draw. Communication from your team in the beginning (and the whole process) was much better than other places we considered.



What was your inspiration for your wedding style?
(We) Didn’t want something too trendy and wanted something that would look classy even in years to come. I personally don’t dress up very often so I wanted glam and glitter on our special day.




What was your inspiration for the colors you picked out?
(We) Wanted something that was in season during the winter but didn’t clash with the Florida winter. Blue and silver are one of my favorite color combos.




How did you feel about your design meeting?
I was surprised how long it took even after they explained it would be a few hours. But honestly, I wasn’t upset with the length as there were so many details I didn’t anticipate and happy that it went down to literally every detail.



What were some of your must-haves for your wedding day?
(I) Did not want Tyler to see me before the ceremony. CCR did a great job of allowing us to have the first touch and made sure he was not looking to make my superstition at ease 🙂

How did you make the day feel personal to you?
We each had a coordinator to help us through the process and guide us through each part of the event.



What was your inspiration behind your wedding attire? What about your wedding party attire?
David’s Bridal for the bridesmaid and The Southern Swan for my dress. My inspiration behind my dress was to have lace and compliment my body type. I went in wanting to look like Kate Middleton but as the owner of Southern Swan pointed out that is not what flatters me the most since I am short. I was so thankful for her advice and feel so confident with my selection. For the bridesmaid, I wanted glitter and something that would look amazing on all the girls no matter shape/size.



What was your favorite moment of the day?
Oh, man! There are so many and it’s hard to choose a favorite. I think my favorite part though was the ceremony and seeing Tyler cry when I walked down the aisle. Hearing his own words and commitment to me was amazing. At that moment nobody else existed and it was just him and me. Later we watched the video from the photographer and I was surprised to hear a baby was crying! I truly didn’t even notice because I was so focused on Tyler.


What helped inspire you as you were planning your wedding?
Pinterest of course! Really just getting opinions from my sisters and mom on what was a good idea. I am not a party planner by any means so it was important to give the basics of what I was looking for and they help put it in words.

Anything else you would like to mention about your wedding day?
I really loved the car ride up to the Chapel and dancing with everyone. I wish we could have stayed for longer to keep dancing the night away.
