2Days after my Wedding. Here’s what i learned.

Shameeka, on August 25, 2019 at 9:33 AM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 2 19
Ladies I’m officially married. My wedding took place in the heart of the City (Atlanta,Ga) The Piedmont Room on August 23rd.. It went fast. I was so worried about crying; well I did but it happen as we lined up and when I was saying my vows. Walking down the aisle seeing my husband look at me with Love and amazement in his eyes is/was unforgettable. I had no appetite all night. I couldn’t focus on one single thing. So here are some tips: no one even put much thoughts in our flowers ( I’m glad we didn’t spend a fortune on them)..everyone loved the photo booth, all the candles, up lights and our photos set the mood. People enjoyed the food ( sushi, lamb, salmon, roast beef, chicken, Mac and cheese bar, assorted veggies) by the time cocktail hour was over everybody was nice and tipsy. We played a lot of old school love songs. We had no day of coordinator just a detail timeline and things went as planned. It rain like crazy but we had an inside wedding. My dad was a no show but my son step right on in . A few guest that RSVP did not show but that’s was fine because it left more food for the guest that did show. My wedding consisted of 60 guest maybe 55 showed. Plan your wedding, by doing what you like ..at the end of the day people want to eat, drink, dance , take pictures, and admire you and hubby ....so clean up well😃😂🙏❤️

    Shameeka!!

    Thank you so much for your input and tips!! It seems like your wedding was very nice and that you had a great time. It's unfortunate you pay for a certain amount of people to come and they rsvp yes, but don't show up. A bit hurtful, but it seems like you didn't let that get to you. It's was all about you and your husband. I am so happy for you, congratulationsSmiley heart

    I can’t want for the photos! Where most of your guest in-state or out-of-state? My day is in Atl too and 99% are out of state.

    I love it! I'm getting married there. Did the Piedmont Room provide the cake stand?

    I am so thankful for this. Because i was thinking about how i wanted to decorate the space and im not doing all the extra stuff. I am going to do the head table and Reserved table and maybe our card/gift table. other than that i will use the house (venue) decor. i am going to make 2 tall centerpieces however for the altar. What we care about most is the ceremony, food, and party.

    This post helped.
