A Rustic Celebration at The Barn at Boone Falls in Johnson City, Tennessee

Tyler Malone (25 and a bass pro shop member) proposed to Amanda Coleman (26 and a family nurse practitioner) in Kingsport, Tennessee after dating during their time at King College. Both having grown up around farms, they immediately decided on a relaxed-yet-elegant celebration at The Barn at Boone Falls in Johnson City, Tennessee. "The first thing we decided was to hold it outdoors on a summer evening since that's our favorite time of year," says Amanda. "A rustic barn theme was the perfect fit for our ceremony, which was held in a field by a creek, with the reception following in the big barn." Tyler ended up setting the khaki and navy color palette when he picked out his light suit only a week after getting engaged. The couple exchanged vows under a wooden arbor made by Tyler's dad before inviting guests to kick off their shoes and enjoy a Southern feast of barbecue, sweet tea and a pie bar. "We focused on the fun and what our guests would enjoy at our wedding, not formality or the little details," says Amanda."We made sure to enjoy our wedding by dancing and allowing plenty of time for us to interact with our guests."
