Despite not being from the area, Tucker & Alyce choose to get married in downtown Memphis cause it's the place they currently call home. Originally from Southern California and Mississippi respectively, it meant all their family & friends could experience the place the place they now call home. These beautiful images of their day are by MISSISSIPPI WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER ASHLEY UPCHURCH.

With a colour palette of fresh white and green Alyce was going for an organic, french country look � the slate blue bridesmaids dresses from BELLA BRIDESMAIDS most fitting for that. With both the bride and groom being very close to their families, it was a non-brainer to include them in their bridal party.

Alyce tells us �We wanted our wedding day to be a relaxed, beautiful afternoon filled with friends, family and good times. And that it was. The high that day was 85 degrees in mid- summer with a slight breeze. We couldn't have envisioned a more perfect day to celebrate our marriage. As for the food and live music, we wanted backyard food or food that you could really get down on! Our friends like to eat so that was important to us. We wanted live music because what else is Memphis known for? Our band did not disappoint! They definitely knocked your socks off.�
