I’m loving all the southern influences. That dessert buffet, complete with berry tarts and pies looks straight out of Georgia! Amazingness.

This venue is amazing. Wish I would have come across it before I threw in the towel, disgusted with the attitude and convuluted pricing of most other venues, and decided to elope!

I keep seeing these benches used in outdoor weddings and love it! I can’t find anywhere to rent them, though! Any suggestions?

@lindsay I was obsessed with the benches at the smog shoppe in LA… so my FIL made them! talk about amazing family members. it took about $10 in wood per bench and his time. they sat 4-5 people. we used them for the rehearsal dinner and after-wedding brunch and now they are spread out amongst our family.

Gorgeous! I love a “real” wedding where everything is sweet and comfy. It feels so much more true than some of the more “perfect” events. Love!
