pia and carmen
Nashville, Tennessee
Pia Toscano, celebrated for her stunning vocals on American Idol, married music executive Carmen Educate in an intimate, elegant celebration at Nashville’s historic Hermitage Hotel. Photographed by Mary Kate Steele, the day was a beautiful fusion of classic style and heartfelt moments. With just over 100 guests, the couple centered their celebration around deep connection and family — including a touching ceremony where Carmen’s five children stood beside them as they exchanged handwritten vows.
From Pia’s custom couture gowns by Paola Estefania to a surprise serenade by David Foster and Katharine McPhee, every detail reflected thoughtful intention and refined beauty. The reception, catered by Michelin-starred chef Jean-Georges, was full of joy, live music, and emotional tributes. Mary Kate Steele Photography artfully captured the emotion, the glamour, and the unmistakable love that made their wedding weekend one to remember.
