Charlotte and Bill's Wedding - April 17, 2010

Spring in Savannah…the azaleas in bloom, what a picture perfect day for Charlotte and Bill’s wedding weekend.  Charlotte and Bill selected Savannah after vacationing here on Charlotte’s birthday two years ago.  They were charmed by the romance, good food and history of the city. Charlotte wanted something understated with a little southern charm thrown into it. And that is exactly what she got….

Their guests were treated like royalty. Not only did the 4 days step back in history, it was a truly gastronomic delight. Thursday started the weekend with a small intimate rehearsal dinner at the Sapphire Grill. Friday’s ladies lunch was at The Olde Historic Pink House and Welcome Party for all at the funky and eclectic Soho Café (the site of an old car dealership). Saturday’s wedding ceremony was at St. John’s Episcopal Church , cocktail’s in Chippewa Square (Life is like a box of chocolates) and the reception at Bryson Hall (the site of oldest car dealership in the south). Catering for Saturday was in the incredible hands of Chef Nick Mueller and then if the guests have not had enough food, the Sunday brunch was at the Desoto Hilton. 

While in the park setting up we notice a couple sitting there and got to talking to them, it was their 50th anniversary and Ellen got to witness a very private but romantic groom proposing to his bride. Spring and love was truly in the air.

In addition to the vendors mentioned above special thanks go to Garden on the Square, Stage Front Presentationand Suckerpunch for a fabulous job.  – Linda
