SIMPLY WED: Melissa + Antonio

It is about time I share this wedding from last October! Melissa + Antonio were such an adorable couple and they were so much fun to work with. This was one of the first weddings I got to really help out with the design details. I did all their wedding programs and escort cards. The amazing flowers are by the previous owner, Layla, and I absolutely love how they turned out! They were so unique and different and I loved the pine cones in the bouquets! This was such a gorgeous fall wedding and we got really lucky that Whitefield Square didn't get rained out. Also, we got to work with Alexis Sweet so that is always a good time! Hope you enjoy all the pictures! Also, make sure you check out their adorable last dance video that I took here... it is pretty freaking adorable!!!!

{Sneak Peak} SIMPLY WED: Melissa & Antonio

Last weekend's wedding was a really great wedding! I was so excited to finally have my first stationary project and was actually the designer of the escort cards and the ceremony programs! I loved putting them together and coming up with designs for the couple using the bride's Pinterest board for inspiration! The ceremony took place at Whitefield Square in downtown Savannah and the reception was at the Richmond Hill City Center. It was such a lovely wedding with one of my favorite color combinations, navy and orange. The decor was really cute with burlap table runners, lace overlays, and vintage candlestick holders. The amazing florals were done by Layla Mayville, previous owner and she did an absolutely amazing job! I cannot wait to see the professional photography by Alexis Sweet, the same photographer from the Bohemian photo shoot I modeled for! I think my favorite moment of their wedding was their last song! It was seriously adorable... the couple danced in the center of everyone holding hands. In the middle of the song Antonio held up Melissa and they danced in a circle. I am not going to lie, it was so cute I was definitely holding back a few happy tears. It was such a special moment and I feel so lucky to have gotten a chance to witness it. I would love to have a last dance like theirs. You could feel the love for the couple in the room and it was just... too precious for me to ever be able to describe fully. Congratulations to the lucky couple! And thank you so much for choosing Simply Savannah Events! Here are some sneak peaks of their big day with some photos from my iPhone via Instagram!

{Real Wedding} Ezella & Elijah

Are you ready for some swagger!? This wedding we planned was filled with so much LOVE and major swagger. The bride was very involved in all the wedding details from creating the flower arrangements, invitations, and making the little Tiffany favor boxes. We were hired on as the month-of coordination and met at the Richmond Hill City Center Elegance in the Park Bridal Show. It was such a gorgeous day for an outside ceremony and then the guests were welcomed into the elegant reception ballroom with teal up-lighting and danced the night away! Everyone had a wonderful night and when guests are happy, we are happy!! Here is the list of vendors who helped make this wedding a success and more pictures of the wedding details...enjoy!
