New Idea for Elopements and More Wedding Pictures

Just met a young couple and about 20 family and friends for a quick, no frills wedding ceremony at Edwin Warner Park on Sunday. In the pavilion areas off of Vaughn road, there a nice area just past the number 5 pavilion (the first left after you pass the sign for pavilion 5) with a quaint looking gazebo.
You can't reserve this area but I would think most often the area would be open since there are no tables, seating or grills in the area. It's also right next to the creek, and there's even an area where you could get down right by the creek for a ceremony.
It might be just the thing for you if you are wanting to elope just as a couple or even with a few guests. It is getting a bit dark for this photo below:
I always enjoy going to Scarritt-Bennett and Wightman Chapel. Often I see it during the daytime, but at nighttime it is especially spectacular. My photos don't do it justice.
When I was at Owen Chapel in Brentwood again recently I picked up one of their brochures. Here's a partial quote: Owen Chapel church of Christ was organized in 1859 and first met in this building in 1867. It stands on land donated by church member James C. Owen. Local craftsman designed the building in the architectural style typical of the 19th century churches. This style featured two front doors, triple-hung windows and walls three bricks thick. The window glass, pews, communion table and set are original...Owen Chapel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Here's a wedding at the Nashville Zoo at obviously near the elephants area. The zoo workers brought the elephants to the fence behind us for the ceremony, and at the end of the ceremony while everyone clapped for the couple, the elephants flapped their ears.
The Wild Turkey Ranch has a recent new addition for wedding ceremonies. Along with the new platform, John tells me he has plans to add a permanent arch.
The Delta Landing is a nice spot for small wedding. The waterfalls for background is great, just be sure to have the officiant wear a microphone.
