From her signature breezy hand-lettering style to her semi-custom collections, LPC is a go-to for calligraphy and event paper needs.

It's no secret that we've always been in awe of our floral-arranging friends, and Alyssa Ice of Ginger Rose is no exception.

Creative Interview | Mayker

Interiors and events have long collided as two creative industries that come together that make magic, and as the purveyor of all the pretty details, when a company comes along that has its foot in both worlds, we're immediately smitten. We're talking about one of the chicest rental companies the Southeast has to offer—Mayker. From transitional to contemporary, traditional to modern, their selection of pieces spans a variety of styles. We had a quick chat with Noelle Powell, our favorite collaborator on all things lounge and furnishings, to ask about trends, style, and the power of a really good chair.

Naturally Beautiful & Unique Wedding Venues

In event design, we always look to the environment for inspiration, especially in non-traditional venues, and if you know where to look, there are many wedding venues that don’t need much decor. There is something so thrilling about whisking guests away to an unassuming location and to have them be wowed. We have experience with venues of all kinds (and we definitely have our faves), but there are a few locales that are so naturally beautiful or unique, it makes our job much easier.

Featured Vendor: Atlanta History Center

Our favorites list is ever-changing, and we have a pretty extensive roster of venues and locales, but some classics remain staples in our book. The iconic Swan House, Gardens, and Grand Overlook at the Atlanta History Center offer the loveliest combination of outdoor ceremony settings, countless photo backdrops, and a grand reception space.
