last night i returned after a wonderful weekend spent in sunny (and humid!) savannah. after weeks of emails and calls we finally have a location set for our ceremony and reception! hooray! i can’t tell you how stressful that was. any of you who’ve planned a wedding before will definitely understand how i feel. as someone who is admittedly a bit of a control freak (i can hear ac saying “a bit?”) it’s been really tough to put a lot of my trust in people and places that are hundreds of miles away. but thankfully everyone there has been really friendly and helpful. i’m trying to work with as many local artists as possible to do the decorations so hopefully it will be a big celebration of all things savannah. here’s a little peek into some scenes from my trip, including a little peek into where i will officially become mrs. ac.
[i loved this modern gold house number on this incredibly ornate old home (see full photo above). it was such a cool contrast to all of the intense iron work on the facade]
[gold numbered bottles at liz demos’ fabulous shop, at home: vintage general]
[the scene above our heads as we say “i do”]
[silly, i know, but i loved the iron letters on the carriage house bathrooms where our reception will be]
[scroll work on the porch at our reception site]
[our wedding tree: i can’t wait to decorate the tree and hang a beautiful floral wreath or ribbons from it]
[our secret garden: this door leads to the garden where our reception will be held]
