Colorful summer wedding

Lisa and Mike had known each other since they were young.  So when they decided to tie the knot, this intimate summer gathering was destined to be beautiful.

The ceremony was held in the gardens at The Cordelle.

After cocktails on the patio, guests were greeted by a colorful, summer reception inside.   The tables had champagne linens with alternating napkins.  Lanterns and hobnail vases filled with beautiful roses filled each table.

Guests enjoyed an inspired southern menu with shrimp and grits,  fried green tomato crostini, Jack Daniels marinated beef and honey glazed ham with sweet potato biscuits. In addition to wedding cake, there were cookies for the children and mini blackberry and peach cobblers with ice cream.
