In July, I received an inquiry about the sweetest proposal in Nashville, TN. Colton was looking to propose to his girlfriend & wanted it to be so very special. He told me about Michele, her likes and dislikes, as well as her heart for God. I was so excited when we started planning this & discussing locations.

Colton decided on a gorgeous park in Nashville, with beautiful stone steps. We met up in late July to go over the plan; where I would hide, what it would look like, the time of day, the light, etc….

When Friday, September 3rd rolled around, I KNEW it was going to be AMAZING! The weather was perfect- not a drop of rain in the sky! And no ridiculous humidity. It IS Tennessee after all!

Colton and his family arrived with decorations & props in hand. Colton created a large heart with candles, a “MARRY ME” sign, a wooden Bible verse sign, rose petals and a red carpet! Yes, Colton LITERALLY rolled out the red carpet for Michele!

I am IN LOVE with her ring! Colton said he picked out a bigger stone than she chose.

After decorating, he quickly changed into his suit and messaged Michele’s friends to let them know he was ready. Watching Colton get anxious/nervous and excited was the sweetest! He kept checking his watch & looking for the group of girls to walk up.

Texting her friend, and checking his watch…she would be there soon!

As we were waiting, a little boy ran up to me and asked me “what time is the proposal happening?” How precious is that?!? His parents were sitting on the steps watching. Not only did he have a sweet little family waiting on the big moment, but he also had several people sitting at the top of the steps anxiously waiting!

When Michele & her friends arrived at the park, they started walking near the steps and saw the signs, but she told her friends “we can’t go up that way, someone is proposing!” Little did she know it was for her!

Realizing it’s Colton & this is for her!
SHE SAID “YES!!!!”
Friends, family & even bystanders were cheering!

CONGRATULATIONS Michele & Colton! What an exciting time in y’all’s lives! May God bless you both during this season of planning & preparation, and THANK YOU for allowing me to capture your special day and to celebrate with you!
