What a Wedding!

So, I worked on a terrific wedding this past weekend... Christa and Holden. They got married downtown in Trinity United Methodist Church which might be one of the most beautiful churches I have been in ever. Such a warm place with dark cozy wood beams and lots of friendly faces. After the Ceremony we moved on over to The Granite Room. The Granite Room was a venue I was unfamiliar with and I am so glad to know about it now. A funky loft style event space right in the heart of Castleberry Hills Arts District. VERY COOL! The party was catered by the one and only Affairs to Remember Catering. Other features that made this a very special evening was the music. The DJs played an eclectic mix of music that kept people on the dance floor without having to resort to cheesy tactics. This was much appreciated by the guests and by me for that matter. As a surprise to the wedding guests, the Bride and Groom's Grandmothers took the stage about half way through the evening to play piano and sing some 1940's jazz. Everyone was stunned and amazed by how fantastic they were. What a great surprise! In the end, my favorite part of the wedding were the cakes by Cecilia Villaveces in Athens. If you have not had her cakes you are missing out. You can sample them any day of the week at Last Resort Restaurant in Athens, GA. We served Carrot cake, Carmel cake, Bailey's cake, Raspberry cake, Kaluha cake, Peach cake and more that I cannot even remember right now. All in all, this wedding was one of the best! Stay tuned for photos because I have not even mentioned the stylings of the Bride and Groom... that's a whole new entry.
