How much do we love the talented ladies of Simply Bloom Photography? If you could see us, we're holding our arms out as wide as we can. Each time they send us a wedding, we swoon. Needless to say, Kessa and Randy's Atlanta, GA wedding planned by the fabulous Ashley Baber of Ashley Baber Weddings had us at hello. Kessa wore a beautiful lace gown with a soft mermaid silhouette, cap sleeves and an open keyhole back. She added a narrow satin sash, a pair of glittering crystal-embellished heels, an ornate pearl and crystal bracelet and delicate pearl drop earrings. Kessa carried a tightly formed bouquet of ivory roses and her bridesmaids carried smaller versions of the same blooms. The bridesmaids wore chic black cocktail dresses, while Randy and his groomsmen wore classic black tuxedos with bowties. The ceremony and reception were held at the spectacular Four Seasons Hotel Atlanta, designed in a palette of gold, ivory, black and fuchsia.Gleaming gold chivari chairs formed a wide aisle for the ceremony, where gilded columns were place in a row, topped by glass containers of cascading milk-white orchids and roses. A dramatic accent display was created using a double row of frosted and clear glass containers, tall stems of bamboo and gathered bunches of ivory roses and white orchids. The reception also featured gold accents, but with the addition of the bold combination of black and varied fuchsia hues. Florist Le Jardin Francais created low arrangements of brilliant pink blooms on a rose petal runner lining the center of long Viking-style tables dressed in ivory linens. Gold chivari chairs were tied with black sashes while white letterpress menu cards with an intricate black design and black lettering were folded into black napkins atop gold-rimmed china. Don't miss a single stunning detail, including the glittering crystal chandeliers and the tiered cupcake display.
