I’m not from Atlanta, what is the weather like there in February?
The weather can be somewhat variable in late February so please check the forecast as we get closer to our date. Typically we see temperatures in the mid 50s but it can go down to the 40s or up to the 70s!
Can I take photos?
Pre-ceremony, during cocktail hour and during the reception you are more than welcome to take and post photos (be sure to tag the bride or groom!); however, please refrain from taking photos during the ceremony. We have hired 2 wonderful photographers and a videographer who will take plenty of photos and video to capture those moments!
