Ashton Gardens Atlanta Wedding

Ashton Gardens Atlanta Wedding from Three Pennies Photography


Sometimes you have to take a leap of faith.  That goes for everyday life and it goes for planning your wedding.  Like when this darling duo found the perfect venue… a gravel lot under construction with gorgeous surroundings and beautiful plans.  Take a leap of faith?  Yes. They. Did.  And the result was a beyond beautiful affair held at the brand spankin’ new Ashton Gardens in Atlanta, complete with gorgeous florals from
vintage wedding dresses and an entire gallery of lovely from Three Pennies Photography. See it all right here.


Bridesmaid



From the Bride… Daniel and I had been together for just over 4 years when we got engaged at Jekyll Island on a short weekend getaway. My family’s soul food restaurant made it impossible for me to leave for longer than a weekend, so poor Daniel had to plan our trip around me. We stayed in Savannah, the same city we took our first trip to as a couple, and decided to take a day trip to the beach. After dragging me around the Jekyll Island resort while it was hot and  humid, we finally stopped by the beach to relax before heading back to Savannah. While on the beach, I was being incredibly cranky and having a hard time relaxing while I thought Daniel was napping next to me. I was just about to tell him I was ready to leave when I heard him rustling around next to me. I turned my head and started to prop myself on my elbows when I saw him get up to stand. I was looking up at him and then I saw him reach into his pocket and get something out and as he started to get down on one knee, it dawned on me what was about to happen and Lordy, I started bawling like a baby. I couldn’t have imagined a more perfect moment for us, taking a stressful and not ideal situation and turning it into something so beautifully special.
