A Laidback, Rustic Backyard Wedding in Fairview

By Emily Holt

Anna Arnold and Alex Seymour knew each other in high school but didn’t truly connect until years later. After three years of dating, they married on May 16, 2015, in a wedding that brought new meaning to the term home-style. The couple exchanged vows in the gazebo in Anna’s parents’ backyard, and guests noshed on comfort-food favorites like chicken-fried steak. Packets of seeds reading “let love grow” were given as favors to complete the evening’s laid-back, farm feel.
