Hello There,

I am Aaron Shirley owner of Memory Lane Events, it is so nice to meet you! I am the lead coordinator here and the one who helps to make all of your wedding dreams come true. I am a wife, daughter, sister, Dog AND Cat Mom, and an avid lover of Gluten-Free Pizza!! I have loved weddings ever since my first gig ( being a flower girl at age 3). Since then I moved from my hometown of Glasgow Kentucky to the big city of Nashville TN.

I went to college at Belmont University ( AGD for life!) and am pretty sure I indirectly created my own major in event planning. I got my start at Studiowed Nashville and quickly discovered that event planning was my dream job. I love that no two days and no two couples are the same. From dark and moody boho-styled weddings to light and airy photography, I love making all of the little pieces fall into place.

I am married to the love of my life Joe and we have four furbabies ( 3 cats and one dog). When it came time for us to get married I planned it all myself and got a day of coordinator. As amazing as she was and even given my experience I still felt very overwhelmed and alone occasionally throughout the planning process. I desperately wanted someone I could sit down and share my Pinterest board with, or someone I could vent to about the stress of planning over coffee. That is when I decided to start my own business where I could do just that for others. The looks of joy and gratitude on my client’s faces are what keep me going. I have never planned a wedding I didn’t shed a few happy tears at. To me this is way more than a career it is my calling, my source of joy and that one thing I feel like I was made to do.

When I’m not working you can find me binge-watching any true crime documentary. I love the city life but live just outside the city in a small town called Gallatin, Tennessee ( 45 minutes from downtown Nashville). I love small-town life and the fact that our square looks like Gilmore Girls.

I can’t wait to meet you and see that wedding Pinterest board. Let’s geek out about flowers and all of the fun details and ideas you have in mind for your big day.
