Situated just blocks from downtown, The Bunn House offers a rare blend of historic gravity and secret garden intimacy. Chloe and Thomas approached their celebration with a clear aesthetic directive: to create an English garden atmosphere within the city limits.

Working with Shay Brown Events, they transformed the grounds into a sophisticated a private sanctuary. A clear-top tent allowed the property’s historic brick facade and ancient trees to remain the focal point, while coral and soft blue florals softened the architecture.

Bespoke Design

The design language was intentional and personal. From the invitations featuring a hand-drawn architectural sketch of the venue to the custom monogrammed details, the event felt curated rather than decorated.

Chloe’s styling choices further elevated the narrative, featuring a mid-event wardrobe change that transitioned the tone from ceremonial elegance to evening celebration.

A Family Legacy

While the aesthetic was refined, the soul of the film lies in the family connection. This was a celebration of a family unit coming together. The ceremony was anchored by the presence of their children, with Chloe’s son escorting her down the aisle—a poignant moment of unification that became the emotional centerpiece of the film.

The Evening Atmosphere

As twilight fell, the couple utilized the venue’s unique verticality, making their reception entrance from the rooftop terrace. The evening balanced luxury with nostalgia, featuring an artisanal ice cream station and a vibrant dance floor under the stars, all set against the backdrop of the Asheville skyline.
