H Three Events<\/a> to execute their vision. \u201cWe wanted it to be special and beautiful, but really welcoming and comfortable for our guests,\u201d she says. \u201cWe tried not to take ourselves too seriously. Being from Louisiana, I wanted to bring in a little bit of Cajun flair, so naturally we hired a 12-piece jazz band called Rebirth and had a Cajun meal from the chefs at my bar, Bell Bottoms Up.\u201d<\/p>\nConsidering the bride\u2014who is famous for her denim bell bottoms\u2014has almost never worn a dress, she knew her wedding look would have to be something special. Enter her stylist, Alexandra Mandelkorn, and the Oscar de la Renta team. They all worked together to create a custom look that was entirely Lainey, featuring tiny Japanese cherry blossoms around the neckline and scattered throughout. \u201cThe cherry blossom represents living in the moment, and that\u2019s exactly what we did,\u201d Lainey explains.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\nDuck wore a bespoke suit by D. Lacquaniti; a custom bolo, cufflinks, and a hat pin created in collaboration with Mud Lowery; custom boots by Golden West Boots; and a cowboy hat by Charlie 1 Horse\u2014all styled by close friend Raina Gir.<\/p>\n
The ceremony took place on Sunday, May 10, on a cobblestone ledge at the foot of a waterfall. \u201cYou could hear the water trickling down and birds singing, and we had a nice spring breeze,\u201d Lainey remembers. \u201cI arrived in a white horse-drawn carriage and walked down the aisle with my Deddy to join Duck at the altar.\u201d The couple was married by Lainey\u2019s friend and mentor, Wes Williams, and took communion together during the ceremony in front of their family and friends.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have never seen Duck smile as big as he did then,\u201d Lainey admits. \u201cIt made me feel giddy about turning the page into this next chapter of marriage. We were both anxious to say \u2018I do!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
After the ceremony, Raye\u2019s song \u201cWhere Is My Husband!\u201d played as the newlyweds walked hand-in-hand down the aisle\u2014and then, the legendary New Orleans group Rebirth Brass Band led everyone in a second line march to cocktail hour. \u201cIt was so lovely to have that touch of my home in Louisiana up here in Tennessee,\u201d Lainey remembers.<\/p>\n
After cocktail hour, they did another second line march to the cave where the reception was hosted. \u201cMy mama led the dinner prayer for all of our guests, and we settled in for a night of good food, good company, and good music,\u201d Lainey recalls. \u201cOur family and friends know how to have a good time, and the dance floor was packed all night. To close out a perfect evening, Duck and I followed the band through a send-off line of sparklers and cheering loved ones, climbed into an old white Ford truck, and drove off!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
