What Did Eden and Justin's Wedding Day Look Like?

Getting Ready and Attire

The morning started with excitement as Eden prepared for the day in her stunning bridal gown. She wore a draped fit and flare dress with off-the-shoulder sleeves, a sparkly belt, lacy delicate gloves, and a dramatic long veil. Her bouquet beautifully matched the fall season, featuring rust colored flowers mixed with crisp white blooms.

Justin opted for a unique and stylish look that perfectly complemented the earthy theme. He wore black trousers paired with a teal green jacket featuring black lapels, finished with a sleek black shirt. The wedding party looked incredible, with the bridesmaids wearing elegant rust colored dresses and the groomsmen in sharp black suits. Our photographers captured these striking color contrasts beautifully.

The Ceremony

Eden and Justin exchanged vows in a beautiful church wedding ceremony. The space was transformed with elegant white drapery, twinkling string lights, and striking red and brown flowers. Beautiful aisle decor led the way to the altar, creating a deeply romantic atmosphere.

George Street captured the full ceremony from multiple angles to ensure every meaningful moment was documented. The contrast of the white drapery against the rich fall florals created a perfect backdrop for their vows. Having your photographer capture the natural reactions of guests during these moments makes for incredible memories.

The Reception

The couple hosted an indoor elegant reception that fully embraced their earthy terracotta and green theme. The room looked magical with teal green, black, and gold table settings illuminated by sparkly fairy lights. Tall floral pedestals added height and drama to the room, while a lush greenery wall served as a fantastic focal point.

Guests danced the night away under the warm lighting of the reception hall. The evening featured a beautiful white three-tier cake decorated with rust colored flowers, tying the entire design together. The photography team documented everything from the first dance to the final joyful moments on the dance floor.

Planning a Fall Wedding in Atlanta?

If Eden and Justin's celebration has you inspired to plan your own event, here are a few things to keep in mind:

• Book your venue and photographer early. November is a highly sought-after month for weddings in Atlanta due to the crisp weather and beautiful foliage.

• Embrace rich color palettes. Earthy tones like terracotta, rust, and deep green work beautifully with the natural fall landscape.
