The DIY Black Tie BBQ Wedding
Sydney and Kyle had a simple ceremony at the Seney-Stovall Church, followed by an outdoor cocktail hour and reception at the Taylor Grady House in Athens, GA, where everything started for them.
From having their favorite band names instead of table numbers to their first dance and their send-off, this weddings was a true representation of the bride and groom's personalities. Learn more about their day here.
Kind Words from the Newlyweds
"If you are trying to go it alone without a wedding planner or wedding day coordinator, stop right now and hire Weddings by V, you won't be disappointed. Val helped organize our wedding when all of us (bride, groom and bride's parents) lived outside of the city where it was held; a tall order as we came to find out. Val is relentless, organized, quick and detailed which are all attributes needed in an excellent wedding day coordinator. She left no stone unturned and no detail overlooked with any of our vendors and we are glad she did as our wedding day was perfect which, in the end, is the goal of all of this. My wife and I are still trying to figure out something that went wrong that day, but are still failing. Val is a big reason for that difficulty. We highly recommend Weddings by V to anyone with an upcoming wedding."
Kind Words from the Mother of the Bride
"Val stepped in to organize my daughter’s wedding just a few months prior to the event. This was a difficult task to begin with as the Bride and Groom live in Seattle, the father of the Bride in CA and the mother of the bride in Atlanta with the wedding in Athens, GA. At first, we did not think we needed anyone but it became apparent that we did. She stepped in and took over the organization part, held conference calls with all of us and kept us on task. She did not interfere with anything that we wanted to do but made sure that it came off as we wanted. She was perfect for the part she played in organizing this DIY wedding with many different vendors involved. I would highly recommend Val if you are needing a Day of Coordinator."
