Last month we co-hosted Wedding Date Night, an evening out for brides and grooms to relax and have fun!

The first portion of the event was held at Rik Ducar, a men’s attire shop.

Nicole Chillemi performed light jazz.

We turned the dressing rooms into “style galleries”

This is our ‘Black Tie’ Wedding. We designed the space in bold colors of red, black, and gold.

Our ‘Destination Wedding’ gallery featured a soft palette of blue, taupe, and peach. Groom attire by Rik Ducar, Bride attire by Bella Bridesmaid, Floral by The Savage Garden, Stationery by Papered Wonders, Drape by Event Drapery, Lighting by Unique Event Management, Linen by Graceful Tables

Right next door, we featured the 2nd part of the event at Sugarcoat‘s gorgeous new Virgina Highland location.

The Camerata Quartet entertained us with string versions of popular music

Endive provided yummy bites

The ladies enjoyed Pomegranate Wine from Tree of Life

We hope to see you at one of our upcoming events – Brides by Demetrios Open House and The Inspired Bride.

We’re introducing a new series here on the blog called Interiors to Inspiration. Inspiration for your wedding can be found anywhere, including a favorite restaurant, a favorite vacation spot or even a favorite room in your house. With this series we’ll show you how to turn a space that inspires you into inspiration for your wedding.

The first Interiors to Inspiration is drawn from the bright pale walls, glamorous silver tiling and bold pops of nearly-neon fuchsia in this romantic bathroom. (Image from House To Home). The fresh elegance of the room translates easily into an inspiration board that features swaths of pale linens and a gorgeous pale lavender gown. Thoughtfully edited spots of fuchsia in the florals, stationery and a to-die-for pair of shoes add a punch of personality.  This would be perfect for an event on one of Atlanta’s beautiful terraces  (like Ventanas or The Peachtree Club) where the natural light at sunset will make the glimmering silver details sparkle.
