Emily & Barry’s love story captures deep feelings, big adventures, and quiet moments between them that their closest family and friends have been overjoyed to have witnessed.

On a beautiful Summer day in August, this love story was celebrated with the exchange of nuptials during an intimate ceremony at the couple’s residence.

Emily & Barry made their way down a shaded pathway through their garden to join family at their alter, accompanied by “Can’t Help Falling In Love With You” played by a solo violinist. Tulip Tree accented the garden pathway with lush cream and blush florals, studded with delicate butter yellow orchids to create a chic garden moment.

Post nuptials, Kristen Winston Catering welcomed guests with Sparkling Blood Orange cocktails and passed savory fare such as Summer Panzanella Cherry Tomato, Filet Crostini with Bearnaise and Potato Chip with Caviar and Crème Fraiche. A jazz trio filled the air as guests enjoyed the reception until Emily & Barry made their way to cut the wedding cake.

Dessert Designs created a chic cake adorned with three blooms that included sour cream pound cake, caramel filling and white icing.

The celebration ended with the newlyweds riding off into the sunset in their vintage Packard with Emily tossing her bouquet that made for a picture perfect moment as we bid the happy couple adieu.

Emily & Barry, wishing you continued love, happiness and wonderful memories. Cheers! B

| Legacy | Celebrating 70 years of our friend, Lisa Manning… It was such an honor to be part of this joyous occasion at Nashville’s beloved, Cheekwood Estate and Gardens.

Friends gathered in the Loggia of the original Cheek home, overlooking the lush Swan Lawn that had been turned into a beautiful garden full of blooms, butterflies and an occasional hummingbird brought to life by Carter Dawson of Botanica Nashville. Cherish McKellar filled the air with the sounds of her beautiful harp while Kristen Winston and team passed savory bites and libations. A festive Martini Bar was enjoyed that included Cosmos, Lemon Drops and the Classic cocktail.

A heartfelt celebratory toast was extended by family that was kicked off by friends singing, “Happy Birthday,” around a stunning dried flower inspired caramel iced cake created by Dessert Designs.

As the sun set, it was the perfect ending to the perfect day to shower our friend with love and joy on her special day.

A.A. Milne writes in “Winnie the Pooh,” Piglet asks, “We’ll be Friends Forever, won’t we, Pooh?” Pooh answers, “Even longer,” noting, “A day without a friend is like a pot without a single drop of honey left inside.”

What a beautiful reminder of what’s important in life…

As we look into the sun setting in the horizon, we think about legacy. Isn’t legacy like planting seeds in a garden you never get to see? What will your legacy be?

And to Lisa… Thank you for the beautiful garden you have created and cared for, inviting so many to be part of the last 70 years. We wish you continued love, happiness, and wonderful memories. Cheers! Bruce

| a diamond in a rhinestone world | As we are saddened to hear about the passing of Dolly Parton, we are reminded of a special project earlier this Summer that we were honored to be part of along with our friends at Geny’s Flowers , EventWorks and fīnis on behalf of O'More Interiors .

We had the pleasure of coming together to create Dolly’s Backstage Dressing Room Experience during Dolly Parton’s Threads - My Songs In Symphony at Schermerhorn Symphony Center. Finis truly summed up our feelings, sharing “… we all pulled together for a day of fun out of sheer love and admiration for Dolly, her music, and the humanitarian work she’s done across the world.
Grateful for the very special experience, and forever inspired by a great Tennessean.”

We invite you to peek inside Dolly’s Dressing Room as we all take a moment to think about her wit, wisdom and legacy. Much appreciation to the Nashville Symphony for inviting us to be part of this project.

Bruce Pittman Inc. was honored to be part of Emily & Jacob’s wedding inside Schermerhorn Symphony Center.

With a subtle touch of gothic-inspired elements, Schermerhorn Symphony Center was the perfect backdrop to create a high-contrast, cinematic atmosphere with rich florals, dark hues, and a focus on emotion and atmosphere.

Enjoy this peek inside the experience that included an epic Concert Hall flip from ceremony to reception, an organ performance by Jacob’s brother, rock star time on the dance floor with the Oxford Soul Band and even a cameo appearance by the Cowboy Cannolis!

And just like that, nineteen and a half hours later… That’s a wrap!

It was an honor of a lifetime to be part of this special Swan Lake themed Ballet Ball, supporting our beloved Nashville Ballet. Today my eyes are wet and my heart is full thinking about the many people that came together to create such a magical evening - Volunteers, Nashville Ballet staff and dancers, event and production professionals and of course my team that is the •best• and simply moves mountains behind the scenes to create memorable experiences.

Congratulations to this year’s co-chair team that spent countless hours and energy to plan a Ballet Ball to be remembered for a lifetime while raising needed funds to support the Nashville Ballet and its’ many programs in our community. Lisa, Julie and Neil - Thank you for inviting me to be part of your team. I am humbled and fortunate to have been able to get to know you better over the past year.

I’d be remiss not to highlight the Nashville Ballet team. What a mighty force they are… Morgan, Katie and Michelle - Rock Stars! Much appreciation to these ladies and the entire Nashville Ballet family for planning and executing a superb Ballet Ball.

Enjoy these highlights captured during this year’s Swan Lake themed Ballet Ball. Until next time… Cheers! B
