Many of my bridal event ideas come out of the needs of my clients. So many couples have a hard time scheduling tours after work hours and making it around our big city of Atlanta. So, we organized the StudioWed Venue Tour Series, which allowed couples to see multiple venues on weekends, transported around the city, while enjoying the VIP treatment from venues. Here is a recap of the tours!

Each tour started with breakfast at StudioWed, catered by Endive.

Couples toured the studio and mingled with vendors

Atlantic Limo provided the comfy transportation around the city!

Couples received a hard hat tour at the brand new 200 Peachtree

The Four Seasons such an elegant venue, indulged our guests in a chocolate and dessert bar.

Our couples were one of the first to see the brand new 28th floor terrace at the Peachtree Club

Opera, always high in drama and ambiance, did not disappoint with yummy appetizers, desserts, and drinks

The Ritz-Carlton, Atlanta, with it’s incomparable service, went above and beyond with specialty cocktails, appetizers, and even managed to sneak cookies for the couples on the bus as a special treat!

This is just a sampling of the 24 venues that hosted the tours. Our couples so enjoyed being pampered at some of Atlanta’s best wedding venues. We hope to do the tours again in the Fall.
