Martyrs Park

Martyrs Park

It might sound ironic to take a wedding photoshoot in the middle of the Martyrs Park, but it would add a unique look to your album with those sculptures and the blooming magnolias. If you are planning a February – June wedding, the magnolias will be in full bloom. The pink hue would add magic to your pictures. Beyond these, you will have a backdrop worth a million bucks – the Mississippi River with her two bridges.

Some prefer a unique element that would make their wedding pictures Instagram-worthy. If you are one such couple, try the hidden beauty of Wolf River Greenway.

For more nature-filled photoshoots, try Overton Park in Midtown Memphis.

Downtown Memphis

Downtown Memphis

Downtown Memphis sounds like a very vague destination. But, choose any rooftop, and you can get a classic-style photoshoot with aerial views. The best place that is trending among young couples is the Peabody Hotel with its massive rooftop. It is the only place in Memphis where you can take an aerial picture with the duck palace in the backdrop. For some variety you can try the River Inn of Mud Island or Hu Hotel. For some nostalgic-themed pictures, try the Beale Street Entertainment District.

South Main Arts District

South Main Arts District

If you are planning a traditional wedding, the best way to compliment your dress would be an urban setting backdrop. South Main Arts District has the right combination of photogenic sites, iconic buildings, public art pieces, and more. Also you can’t miss posing in front of The Arcade, Earnestine and Hazel, or the Central Station hotel. Sometimes, they allow couples to click a few pictures inside the hotel but do not get your hopes high.
