F E A T U R E D • F R I D A Y // This week, we're celebrating the B O L D and the beautiful! In September Miranda + Thomas gathered with 300 of their favorite people for an undeniably unforgettable celebration at Lowndes Grove. It all kicked off with a perfect waterfront ceremony beneath the The River House at Lowndes Grove oaks, the stage overflowing with abundant florals and the pre-ceremony frosé flowing. Guests were then welcomed steps away to Lowndes Grove, where the next visual treat awaited - the P I N K reception tent! The space was totally transformed with statement pieces, like the customized scalloped-edged chandelier and oversized circular pink bar that both stole the show. The next piece of sexy wedding eye candy: the sail cloth sperry tent on front lawn. Set up for dinner service, this space was SO much more! In an instant, guests were dropped into a whole new world of layered patterns, textures, and colors in every direction. Bright, lush florals and 12-foot cherry blossom trees perfectly complimented the colorful scalloped-edge pillows dotting the yellow booth that ran through the center of the tent. Following dinner, guests made their way back to the reception tent, which had a whole new vibe once the sun went down. In the end, it's easy to say M+T's wedding soiree was more than just stunning - it was truly something special🥂✨
