Elizabeth Lauren Reuther and Jared Adam Mabry met in July 2022 while working at HCA Healthcare. The timing was fateful, as Jared had just moved back to Nashville from London. After an introduction from a friend, Lauren and Jared’s love story began — later culminating in a cinematic proposal. “We were horseback riding in Missoula, Montana, on Dec. 2, 2023,” says Lauren. “While stopping to let our horses rest and admiring all the snow coming down, Jared got down on one knee.” 

When the couple’s much-awaited day finally arrived on Dec. 7, 2024, Nashville’s Diamond Creek Farms offered a picturesque backdrop for the ceremony and reception. Stunning florals from LMA Designs featured lush white hydrangeas and roses, draping orchids, fluffy baby’s breath, and hints of dark greenery. When her father accompanied her down the aisle to familiar lyrics, “Tale as old as time,“ Lauren carried a tight bouquet of white roses, garden roses and white ranunculus, with gray brunia berries and gray dusty miller tucked throughout.

Lauren wowed attendees with her first look: a Rita Vinieris gown, pink Loeffler Randall shoes, diamond studs and her grandmother’s diamond watch. For her reception look, she embraced a fun twist on classic bridal attire, donning a charmeuse A-line dress by Watters Designs, a glittering diamond necklace from King Jewelers, and showstopping sequin platforms by Christian Louboutin. Complementing his bride’s attire, Jared wore a Richards Bespoke tuxedo, Crockett & Jones dress shoes, and a Tom Ford bow tie. 

With Viva La Strings accompanying the ceremony and The Downtown Band creating a lively reception atmosphere, music played an integral role in the couple’s special day, which was meticulously planned by Jay Joyner. Their romantic first dance — featuring Kacey Musgraves’ tender rendition of “Can’t Help Falling in Love” — set the tone for heartfelt family waltzes and the cutting of the couple’s simple, three-tier almond cake by Ivey Cake.

Guests enjoyed a delicious dinner provided by G Catering. But as the night progressed, the bride and groom playfully satiated late-night appetites with trays of Taco Bell and Krystal. Those in attendance reveled in a candlelit glow before wishing off the happy couple. The duo made their stylish exit to 1 Hotel Nashville in a classic navy Bentley, in anticipation of their honeymoon in Turks and Caicos — and the joy-filled days ahead. 

Parents of the bride and groom are Sheila Lambos Reuther and Arthur Miller Reuther Jr. of Nashville, and Lila Terri Mabry and Kevin Randall Mabry of Asheville, N.C. The couple currently resides in Nolensville, Tenn.
