A Gorgeous Summer Wedding at Marblegate Farm

Jul 27

Marblegate Farm, nestled in the scenic countryside of Friendsville, TN, provided the perfect setting for Ashton and PJ’s stunning summer wedding. Known for its picturesque charm and tranquil lakeside views, Marblegate Farm delivered a celebration that was as breathtaking as it was heartfelt.

The ceremony took place in a shaded, serene spot by the lake and pond, offering a cool retreat from the summer sun. Surrounded by the natural beauty of Marblegate Farm, Ashton and PJ exchanged heartfelt vows under a canopy of greenery, creating an intimate and romantic atmosphere. Ashton looked radiant in her flowing gown, and PJ’s emotions as he saw her walk down the aisle were enough to bring happy tears to all in attendance. The gentle rustle of the breeze and the tranquil waters added to the magic of the moment, creating a scene straight out of a dream.

Following the ceremony, guests gathered indoors in Marblegate’s elegant main hall for the reception. The hall’s warm ambiance, high ceilings, and rustic charm created a perfect space for dining and dancing. Tables were adorned with stunning floral arrangements in soft summer hues, perfectly complementing the romantic aesthetic of the day. Ashton and PJ shared their first dance surrounded by their loved ones, a moment that embodied the joy and love of their union.

Every detail of Ashton and PJ’s wedding was a testament to their love and the thoughtful planning that went into creating such a memorable day. Capturing these moments—each smile, tear, and celebration—was an absolute honor.

Jason Messing

Who are we? We are Jason and Staci Messing, a husband and wife photography team based in Knoxville, Tennessee. We met in 2007, starting dating in 2008, and have been together ever since. We were married at the Capitol Theatre in Maryville in 2012, and our special day actually led to our interest in photography and inspired us to pursue our dream of owning our own business. (See our wedding story here!) Our family team grew when we had our sweet son, Jaden, in 2014, and he's already reviewing our photos for us.

What's our style? The adjectives we always used to describe our photography style are light, airy, natural and whimsical. We would say our job is to capture all the amazing moments of your big day so that you have a tangible memory of the people, details, and surroundings that make your wedding special. We essentially want your day to look like a fairy tale, and it's all about making even the ordinary exceptional by photographing meaningful and candid moments.

What about the name? Jason's business actually started as one centered around music production and video editing. Juicebeats, his nickname as a producer and rapper, inspired our company name, originally Juicebeats Productions. In 2013, the business evolved into one focused on a new creative outlet, photography, and it was only natural that Staci jumped on board in late 2014 as the 2nd shooter/photographer assistant. We debated a name change (for 12 seconds) until we realized that Juicebeats is unique, memorable, and just us.
