After Travis Berry proposed to Jennifer Durr in their Branchville home, they didn’t go much farther afield for their wedding.The couple picked a local church for the ceremony, then headed downtown—downtown Branchville, that is—for the reception. Picking Main Street Bar-B-Cue for the reception set a rustic tone that Jennifer—who did most of the planning—accented with pared-back florals. But given the holiday season, she splurged in one area: the tree. “From the moment we decided to have a Christmas wedding, I said that I wanted an upside-down tree as the focal point of the reception,” she says. After some heavy lifting, the tree, hung above 200 guests dining on the couple’s favorite meal: a Southern brunch. “Everything just fell right into place,” says Jennifer. “But the most rewarding part was when everything was over, we were married.”
