Lauren and Chris were married on a hot and humid day in Atlanta, Georgia. Lauren drew much of her inspiration from her art history studies … and her antique ring! Mike and Summer at Rising Moon Video Productions have shared a terrific highlight film from the day, but first a few shots from their awesome photographer, Michele Beckwith!

Lauren and Chris were married at St. Jude Catholic Church, with the reception at Greystone in Piedmont Park on a hot, humid day in Atlanta, Georgia. The park had stunning views of the city skyline, which provided a gorgeous backdrop and made for a nice mix of urban and romantic. Chris and Lauren’s love of travel inspired their table cards, as each one was named after a place they had visited in their many travels together, and their send-off included paper airplanes being tossed into the air as the bride and groom made their exit. Another personal touch included the absolutely delicious, melt-in-your-mouth, to-die-for cake pops that the bride herself makes with her company, Sweet Lauren Cakes.  In the bride’s own words (below), a lot of her inspiration also centered around her vintage designed ring.

Overall, all the details were developed based on my ring, an antique, which is over 100 years old. I wanted the design elements of the wedding to hint at something from the early 1900s-1920′s, my favorite period from my Art History Studies.

Originally, I was looking for a dress that had something extra special on the back of the dress, but we had a lot of trouble finding something that was both beautiful in the front and unusual looking in the back. So with Rin’s help, we had the bustle made to give it a little Victorian flair! It took a few cuts, but finally we had the right amount of “layers” and oomph! Basically, the look was vintage modern to match my ring!

My veil was also made by my Aunt, and we used vintage lace that we got from the Lace Museum in Berkely. It was so beautiful and even better, it was from nearly 100 years ago. We really lucked out as there was only just enough left of the lace to make the veil before it was gone!

The design for the invitations and cards were originally conceived by my friend Timoni, who has also recently started a website company, but she does invitations and cards as well.

    Wow! What a gorgeous wedding! Your dress is phenomenal! I absolutely adore the volume from the added bustle in the back! The navy and sage color scheme is dripping with elegance, too! My fiance' and I are going with a plum, herb, and sand color scheme, so our colors are somewhat similar to yours, and let me tell you, it sure is nice to see how beautifully they work together!

  12. That dress!!!!! Can i get married again? :)

  13. Laurensays says:

    Hi All! Thank you for all the kind words! We had so much fun that day, I even tried asking my new husband if we could get married again in 5 or 10 years! And for anyone who is wondering, the bridesmaids dresses were from Dessy Group and they were taffeta in the color "sapphire". I told all the bridesmaids they could pick out their own dress designs as long as they stuck with the same fabric and color and I think everyone really had fun with that! Overall, is one of the most wonderful days of my life- getting married to the one I love. :)
