The Crafty and Colorful Wedding - Jacki & Jay

Last month, I coordinated Jacki and Jay's beautiful wedding at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens in Gainesville. This sunny day started with an outdoor ceremony in the garden, followed by a cocktail hour in the terrace overlooking the pond, and an indoor/outdoor reception.

A lot of love went into this colorful and crafty wedding. From hand painting the centerpiece vases to making the favors, this Bride worked very hard on every small detail. Her family also helped make this day so special, by baking all the goodies on the dessert table and assisting during setup.

Besides seeing the genuine love and happiness of the newlyweds, some of my favorite parts of the wedding included:

The Bride's cousins holding a blanket that said "Shhh..." to hide her meanwhile she walked to the ceremony garden.
The extremely good choreographed first dance, probably the best I've ever seen.
The Bride's beautiful bridal gown that transformed into a flirty cocktail dress.
The wine bottle guestbook.
The Best Man surprising the bride and groom with a go-away white limousine.
