What a day to remember at The Venue at Waddell Place.

Just as everyone was getting ready this morning, the power went out across the entire area, causing a little panic and a lot of creative problem-solving. Then came the radar full of storms and the threat of rain right at ceremony time. Add in a 95° heat index, and it would have been easy to let the stress take over.

But as if designed by God Himself, the rain held off, the lights came back on, and Hunter and Lexi exchanged vows in our beautiful White Chapel, surrounded by the people who love them most.

A few unexpected twists only made this day more memorable. Through every challenge, these two remained focused on what mattered most—beginning their forever together.

Congratulations, Hunter & Lexi Foster. Thank you for trusting us to be part of your love story. Wishing you a lifetime of laughter, grace through life’s storms, and a love that only grows stronger with each passing year. 🤍💍🌿🌸

Sometimes the most beautiful weddings aren’t the ones that go exactly as planned… they’re the ones that remind us that love shines brightest through the unexpected.

Today was one of those days we’ll never forget. 🤍

Our very own Markie Anderson, NP-C, married the love of her life, Dustin Amburgey.

The forecast called for rain, but the weather showed a little grace and held off during the ceremony, giving them the perfect moment to exchange vows.

Markie looked absolutely breathtaking, and the joy on both of their faces said it all.

Wishing these two a lifetime filled with love, laughter, and countless blessings. 💍✨ We can’t wait to see the professional pictures!!
