Toni and Matt were married in a stylish Atlanta affair photographed by
Altmix Photography and designed by the always amazing Ashley Baber of
Ashley Baber Weddings, whose work is featured in the current Summer 2010 issue of
Weddings Unveiled. The event was designed in a sophisticated palette of black, white and bold yellow with clean modern detailing. Toni wore one of our favorite gowns by
Monique Lhuillier with a sweetheart bodice and a dramatic floral textured A-line skirt that looks like masses of blossoms. She added a pair of hoop earrings and carried a bouquet of canary yellow calla lilies wrapped in organza with tiny frames pinned to it containing photos of her family members. Her bridesmaids carried bouquets of white French tulips and wore black cocktail dresses with statement necklaces of knotted pearls and chains from
Stella & Dot. Matt and his groomsmen wore classic black tuxedos with black bowties and yellow calla lily boutonnieres.
The ceremony was held at the historic Neo-Gothic
Peachtree Christian Church where two flower girls led the way down the aisle carrying pomanders of yellow spider mums. The reception was held at
King Plow, opening with a spectacular display of black manzanita branches hung with black and white paper flowers and notes on yellow ribbons in lieu of a traditional guest book. Lounge areas were created around the room using whtie pipe and drape and panels of black and white patterned fabric. White couches and chairs with clean modern lines were set with black accent pillows and arranged around groupings of black lacquer cubes. Fish bowl vessels were used for lounge accent florals created with a base layer of black river rocks and a single yellow calla lily curled around the inside of the bowl for a splash of color. Guest tables were draped in white linens with contrasting black and white patterned runners and a mixture of centerpieces ranging from low white ceramic vases of tumbling lemon yellow tulips to tall glass cylinders filled with a base of river rocks and submerged long-stemmed yellow callas. A candy display featured a variety of yellow and white sweets and at the end of the evening, guests cheered Toni and Matt with a sparkler exit before they drove off in a classic Rolls-Royce.
