This weekend was one for the books. My best
friend, Audrey, married the love of her life, Rob. Audrey and I met when we
were in the same sorority in college. Our friendship really blossomed though
after we graduated from Georgia. She is such a special friend to me and I was
so honored to be part of her wedding day. (Pretty cool side note they got
married on the same day as her parents. Her parents celebrated their 28th
wedding anniversary this weekend too)
Thursday: we met some people for drinks at Cypress Street Pint and Plate to kick off the weekend.
Friday: We had the bridesmaid’s luncheon at
the Swan Coach House with all the bridal party girls and a few of her mom’s
best friends. It was as always a super girly good time. She gave us some super
soft robes to wear while getting ready on Saturday and earrings for the
wedding. We had a great lunch and then I went back with her to the hotel to
hang out until the rehearsal instead of driving home and basically turning
right around. They stayed at the beautiful Georgian Terrace Hotel. We went to
the rehearsal at The Foundry at Puritan Mill then back to the Hotel for the
rehearsal dinner. The Turner’s had the rehearsal dinner in the Livingston
Restaurant in the lobby of the Georgian Terrace Hotel. It was a beautiful
location and right across the street from the Fox Theater. The food was
delicious and the speeches were great. The weekend really kicked off with a
bang! After dinner we went downstairs to the hotel bar called Proof and
Provision. Really neat atmosphere. You kinda felt like you were in a cave.
Saturday: WEDDING DAY! My hair appointment
was first so I stopped by Starbucks to grab me, the bride and the MOH some
coffee! The same hair/makeup lady that did my wedding did Audrey’s. It was a
little stressful getting all the girls hair/makeup done but it all came
together and everyone looked beautiful! The photographer showed up at around
2:30 and we all got dressed and ready for the night to begin! Audrey and Rob
did their first look outside of the hotel in front of the Fox. It was a special
moment that we all got to witness as well. Audrey was a stunning bride and Rob
was a handsome groom. They both were glowing all night. Just wonderful to
experience! We hopped on the trolley and headed to Puritan Mill for pictures
and hanging out before the ceremony. The space was decorated beautifully! The
photographers were so efficient and we just had the best day! The reception was
wonderful. The band was awesome and we danced the night away! The food (Bold
American) was just fantastic! Having all my friends in the same room is always
such a treat because everyone lives all over the country and in France. We had
a wonderful night celebrating a wonderful couple. I am so happy for Audrey and
Rob and can’t wait to see what god has in store for their marriage!
