Further details on Lawson Bates and Tiffany Espensen’s wedding
Tiffany Espensen wore a gown designed by Renee Cunningham of Renee’s Bridal in Mt. Sterling, Kentucky. It featured a French crepe fabric and a V-neckline and was highlighted by a line of cascading pearl buttons along its cathedral train. The detachable organza princess puff bow was dotted with pearls and draped across the back.
Espensen walked down the aisle with her mother Robin Espensen. Tiffany’s cousin Mia Martin, Lawson’s sister Ellie Bates, the bride’s friend Chelle Andreoli and the groom’s sister-in-law Esther Bates were the bridesmaids.
The bridal party walked down the aisle towards an altar that had a 9-foot wooden cross built by Lawson’s brothers, Warden and Jackson Bates. Lawson was waiting on the other side with his friends and brothers, and they were all seen in black suit pants and white dress shirts with the sleeves rolled up.
Bates’ nephews Bradley Bates and Carson Paine were the ring bearers and the groom’s nieces Kaci and Khloe Bates were the flower girls. The pair danced to the 60s classic Everlasting Love after the wedding.
Guests also enjoyed the wedding cake made by Lawson’s aunt Kay Hamilton. It was a three-tiered fondant cake with white orchid flowers.
