Don’t leave out your groom and groomsmen when preparing to beat the heat! The Modern Gent, trusted groom attire experts, suggests the guys wear a lighter suit for your summer wedding. They recommend a linen or cotton blend of tan or heather grey to keep them cool during the ceremony and throughout the reception.

“From the board room to the martini bar to the breathless moment at the altar, we want you to be it all: an eye-catching, scene-stealing, deal-clenching dude kicking butt in the modern world.” – The Modern Gent

How amazing are these shots from Brian & Jennifer’s SURPRISE summer wedding by Jonathan & Kaye Photography + Cinema!

“Due to a last minute and unexpected job relocation, Brian and Jennifer had to forego their planned September wedding and perform their nuptials at their local courthouse.  The day arrived when Brian, with his vows in hand, believed he was heading to the courthouse to marry Jennifer.  What he didn’t know was that Jennifer had been in on a little secret from Callie Murray (CEO of The Big Fake Wedding) that she (Callie) was throwing them both a surprise wedding! Vendors from all over the Atlanta area pulled together to make this spectacular event happen. We are so honored to have been part of this unique wedding.  It was truly a special day!” — J&K

What a memorable and one-of-a-kind twist to a couple’s big day, captured by such natural, charming photos that we adore.

Overly pleased to share Amanda Claire and Thomas’s beautiful outdoor big day that has left me both stunned and speechless. It is nothing short of the perfect timeless summer wedding filled with southern charm and a flawless combination of gray, taupe, and dusty blue neutrals… all brought to life by Molly McKinley Designs, an Atlanta-based wedding planning and creative event design company, who has done a breathtaking job here!

Words from the bride—

“I wanted the event to feel whimsical, yet classic and southern—very natural, not stuffy. Molly McKinley, our planner, nailed my vision on the head. I gave up reception decor decisions to my mom and Molly, trusting their style and opinions. I walked in to the tent that night amazed. It was perfect!”

June is here! We all know what this beautiful summer month will hold oodles of… weddings! As summer weddings are very much prevalent and popular, they could potentially turn dreadful for both parties in the middle of this summer Georgia heat. Luckily, we’re here to remind you of some things to remember and ideas that may have slipped your mind to beat the heat & achieve your dream wedding. These are some of our favorite things… stay tuned as a new Word of the Wise will be released weekly:

Keepin’ Your Guests Cool 

Handheld paper fans on a stick are a great option to provide a little breeze during the ceremony, and are even cost effective as they can be combined with your program!

Papered Wonders, Inc. – Custom Stationers did a fabulous job with these!  Click to check out their stationery options that are customized to meet your wedding needs. If you are interested in meeting with Papered Wonders, please call StudioWed Atlanta at 404.879.0074 or shoot us an email at atlanta@studiowed.net

Provide cute parasol umbrellas to block the sun for your guests and provide some shading to keep them cool are another idea we love combined with the program fans! These even can serve as a super cute prop for photos of both the wedding party and guests, and can be a fun DIY project to make with your bridal party.
