Lynnette + Dylan, West Lake Country Club Wedding | Augusta, GA

There are many things that we claim are our "favorite part about our job", this wedding contained most, if not all, of them. A bride with a unique design eye, an epic dance party, a sweet, supportive mother of the bride, clients who include cultural heritage moments throughout the day, a father of the bride who could not stop the waterworks, dramatic florals, perfect weather, and all of the love.

Lynnette and her mom came to us last year with some unique ideas. Think black wedding cake. No color except for the green of tropical palms. A dance band AND a Latin DJ. As soon as they laid their vision out on the table, we were all in! It sounded like too much fun!

Both the ceremony and seated dinner & dancing reception took place at West Lake Country Club, the perfect setting for this all-white and black affair. The cake was a traditional Puerto Rican brandy soaked-cake made by a family friend. Lynnette was envisioning a black wedding cake with some kind of white floral, and the pop of white anenomes were the perfect touch.

Keeping with a black and white palate, we did long estate tables covered in white linen with striking black chiavari chairs. The round tables were topped with a black linen and alternatively set with crystal chiavaris. We kept the florals fairly simple in terms of design, though quite dramatic in their effect. Single-element arrangements of hydrangea, tulips, and orchids were clustered with low votives on each of the rounds, however on the long estate tables we wanted to bring some drama and height to the room. The large palm fronds, phalaenopsis orchids, and tall taper candles added texture, pops of color, and ambiance to the ballroom.

The day was a team of all-star vendors. Ashley Seawell captured the beautiful images you will see below. The dance band, Shimmer, and Latin DJ, Juan Rodriguez, did a fantastic job keeping that dance party going until the wee hours of the morning. Thank you to the Bauzas and newly-married Caldwells for letting us be a part of your day. Your family was such a joy to be around and we had so much fun celebrating with you!

Mary Hull + Patrick, Augusta Country Club Spring Wedding | Augusta, GA

In the early spring of 2017 we sat down for our first meeting with Mary Hull & her mother, Carol, to start planning for Mary Hull & Patrick's February 2018 wedding day. Over the next year, we worked with them on crafting a one-of-a-kind seated dinner reception held at the Augusta Country Club for their closest friends and family. 

Carol (with past experience as a planner herself!) & Mary Hull (an art dealer!) both have an eye for design, which makes our jobs as event designers so much more fun! We knew that this wedding would be filled with thoughtful details starting from the ceremony held at Church of the Good Shepherd followed by cocktails, seated dinner, and dancing reception at the Club.

When it came time to create a floorplan for the seated dinner, we quickly decided that mixing round and estate tables was the surest way to create a different feeling in a venue that most of the guests in attendance had been to before. The vision included long tables covered in beautiful linens, topped with florals indicating the first signs of springs. Blooming branches, lush arrangements of various heights, heirloom silver accents, and custom monogrammed menus wrapped around linen hemstitch napkins would set the mood as soon as guests sat down to their seats.

Once dinner concluded, guests were escorted by the horns of the Sol Fusion band outside to the entertainment tent for the first dance between the newly-married Mr. and Mrs. Crawford. When guests were ready to take a reprieve from dancing they could mingle in the art lounge we created inside the Club, with art on loan from some of Mary Hull's very talented friends. Late night snacks of South Carolina BBQ sliders & chips as well as the Club's signature night cap, the velvet hammer, were quickly enjoyed by guests both on and off the dance floor!

We had some of our favorite vendors on our team for this one, including our favorite Ashley Seawell Photography, the delicious 5-tiered wedding cake was by our friend Lila Greene, hair and make-up by our Surrey Center neighbors Cucumber & Mint, and Sol Fusion band kept guests out on the dance floor all night long.

Ansley + Richard, Sacred Heart Winter Wedding | Augusta, GA

When Ansley and her mom, Dianne, came to us last January we knew we were in for a fun design process! They already had some of their vendors booked and a vision in mind for Ansley and Richard's winter wedding day. Sacred Heart, big band, big bar, lots of pretty florals, and lots of fun. We instantly knew the feeling we wanted the event to embody and jumped right into the design process headfirst. 

Sacred Heart is such a beautiful venue and it doesn't take much to turn it into something spectacular, however we wanted this wedding to be unlike anything any one had seen yet in this space. We started with a beautiful white wooden bar to anchor the overall event design, including the spectacular gold and glass bar backs that our floral designers decked out in hydrangea and garden roses. Once the candles were lit, the whole display glowed beautifully at the center of the cathedral.

More specialty rentals included the round banquettes topped with massive urns spilling over with florals and the coordinating lounge seating for guests to relax in while watching the bride and groom dance the night away to the incredible Perfect 10 Band

Of course with Sacred Heart comes the spectacular marble altar. Our floral design team adorned it with smilax (from grandma's garden!), florals galore, and plenty of candles which made it the perfect backdrop for the band.

One of our personal favorite details from the day were the dove grey velvet linens and candles lining all the stained glass windows around the venue. It was those extra touches that really made this wedding unique, one-of-a-kind, and nothing like what has been done in that space before.

The wedding day itself was a beautiful, crisp, sunny January day here in Augusta. The ceremony took place at Trinity on the Hill and the images shot by the talented Amy Noon Free of the bridal party just perfectly encapsulate the beauty of this bride, couple, and families that we got to know throughout this process. 

Scroll through the images below to see more of this incredible day. All the portrait, ceremony, and reception images were shot by our newest vendor friend Amy Noon Free! The reception details shots are by our sweet friend Lauren Carnes (thank you Lauren for coming and shoot these images for us!). We also list  the fantastic vendor team that we were so lucky to have on our side for this one!
