Sophisticated Wedding

Hannah Shepherd and Matthew Barker | December 19, 2021

Wightman Chapel at the Scarritt Bennett Center was the charming setting for the evening wedding ceremony of Hannah Shepherd and Matthew Barker. The wedding party was composed of 13 groomsmen and seven ushers, the bride’s maid of honor, matron of honor and five bridesmaids. The maid of honor and matron of order wore black velvet dresses, and the rest of the bridesmaids wore black chiffon. The gentlemen wore black tuxedos.

The reception followed at The Country Music Hall of Fame. Matthew and Hannah shared a private dinner together backstage at the Ford’s Theater while their guests were at the cocktail hour. This gave them time to spend together and share a meal after a busy day and before the reception. Hannah channeled her inner country music star and changed into a sequined jumpsuit, complete with bejeweled pink guitar earrings and pink shoes to dance the night away with her new groom!

Hannah and Matthew spent their honeymoon in SantaRosa, Florida. Matthew is the Vice President of Two Rivers Ford, a business that has been in their family for three generations. Hannah is a second-grade teacher at an elementary school in Brentwood. The Barkers live in Green Hills with their two dogs Wrigley, a one-year-old Australian Shepherd, and Doodle, a four-year-old Chinese Crested.
