Happily Ever After: A Hindeman-Bain Wedding

By Morgan Winter—Wedding Copy Editor

On Saturday, November 16th, 2019, Miss Sadie Georgia Hindman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Brandon (Jackie) Hindman of Atoka, Tennessee, and Mr. Jason Saveley Bain, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jason (Amy) Bain also of Atoka, entwined their lives in marriage.

The wedding parties spent the day at the Manor at Mount Carmel in Covington. The sun lent its warmth in the cool and breezy weather. Magnolia leaves, pine boughs, and white flowers adorned the rustic arch which the groom’s grandmother decorated. Traci Mayer directed the wedding for the couple. Milton Southall was there not only as a son, husband, father, and an awesome grandad to each of his grandkids, he led the ceremony and read scripture. He is an active member of First Baptist Church of Covington where he has been attending for many years. Milton is truly a man of God and the couple is very thankful to have had him do this for their wedding!

Supporting Sadie on her special day was her maid of honor, Alyssa Williams; her bridesmaids, Emma Bain, Brianna Clements, Victoria Krueger, Summer Whiteside, and Danielle Smith; and her flower girl, Ebby Hill. Her bridesmaids all wore sage green dresses with halter necklines. Her maid of honor’s dress varied slightly with a one-shoulder neckline. Their shoes and accessories matched: gold pendant earrings and heels. To keep the chill away and off their shoulders, they wore fur stoles. Ebby Hill, the flower girl, also wore a white fur stole over her tan dress. Marleigh Mae, the bride’s best friend and Goldendoodle, wore a stunning all-fur ensemble and bandana with ‘I Say I Do, Too’ printed on it.

Jason, known affectionately as Bo, had his closest friends and brother beside him as he married the love of his life. His best man was Peyton Clements and his groomsmen were Kody Clark, Nolan Gregory, Casey Crowe, Dylan Carnell, Zach Smith, and Dylan Hindman. The gentlemen were slick in their well-tailored tan suits, rented from the Manor at Mount Carmel. Their vests and bowties matched the bridal party’s sage green dresses. A cotton boll boutonniere completed their ensemble. Bo wore the same with the addition of a sage green pocket square. Karson Hindman and Brock Hill acted as ring bearers.

The bridal party snacked on Chick-Fil-A nuggets while they got ready; Sadie had help so she would not smudge her rose pink lipstick. Subtle brown eyeshadow framed her eyes thanks to the expert application by Havana Silva. Tianna Rodrigues styled the bride’s hair into elegant curls. Sadie wore a show-stopping dress. The dress itself was completely made of lace, with a nude underdress. The natural waistline was defined by lined lace and a y-necklace accentuated the neckline of the dress. Little touches made the dress special. The mother of the bride stitched a small pink heart in the lining of the dress for her daughter. For the bride’s traditions, she bought new crystal earrings, wore her great-grandmother’s bracelet, borrowed a pair of her bridesmaid’s shoes, and had blue in her garter. Completing the look was her veil; fingertip length and edged in delicate scrollwork lace and sequins. Mila Angela Photography captured the entire day for the lovely couple.

For the reception, the food was self-catered. Using a family recipe, guests were treated to the bride’s grandmother’s baked ziti with ricotta and texas toast. For drinks, the groom’s grandfather provided homemade wine. Jackie, the bride’s mother, created a beautiful three-tiered wedding cake flavored with vanilla and white icing. White roses crowned the top of the cake with an elegant ‘B’. Jackie also baked the groom’s cake: a Tennessee-themed affair with orange and white checkerboard and the essential ‘T’.

For music, Dj Royal Smith played the tunes. Sadie and Bo shared their first dance to Chris Stapleton’s “Millionaire”. The father and the bride swayed to Florida-Georgia Line’s “God, Your Momma, and Me”. The groom and his mother danced to Lee Ann Womack’s classic “I Hope You Dance”. The centerpieces of eucalyptus, white roses, and cotton bolls were hinted at with the eucalyptus leaves embossed on the invitations.

For the parties leading up to the wedding, the bridesmaids threw a lemon-themed bridal shower for Sadie in her home with the quote “She found her main squeeze”. Traci Mayer, Christal Hill, and Amy Bain hosted a fantastic I Do BBQ at the Mayer’s residence which was a couple’s shower and engagement party all rolled into one.

The Manor at Mount Carmel, in addition to hosting their wedding, was also where they held their rehearsal dinner. Round 2 BBQ catered and wine was provided by Bo’s grandfather.

And just how did Bo pop the question? He was working late one night while Sadie was at home making spaghetti. She was starving but held off until he got home around 9:30. Sadie welcomed him home with a huge hug while Marleigh Mae bounced around them. When she tried pulling away so they could eat dinner, Bo held on. He then slid down to one knee and asked Sadie that all-important question: Will you marry me? Sadie enthusiastically said yes! When people ask her for the story of how he asked, she replies that it meant more to her having him propose in their home that they bought together with their first dog, Marleigh Mae, by their side. Marleigh Mae’s presence at their engagement was a sign that they needed her in their wedding. The way that Bo proposed meant so much more to Sadie because it marked the new chapter in their lives. Sadie remembers saying “This is how it’s supposed to be”.

Bo is a wire technician with AT&T and Sadie is a transportation and freight broker. They drove up to Gatlinburg to spend a romantic honeymoon week amid the picturesque mountains.
