Classic Southern Wedding Inspiration // The Wright Farm Wedding Styled Shoot

Classic Southern Wedding Inspiration // The Wright Farm Wedding Styled Shoot // West Georgia Certified Wedding Planner

Classic Southern Wedding Inspiration

They say that time flies by when you’re having fun, and boy is that true! It’s hard to believe that one year ago today I was out on location at The Wright Farm sharing the behind-the-scenes to this styled photoshoot on Instagram stories. After a whirlwind of a year of it getting picked up for publication by both Modern Luxury Weddings Atlanta and then The Perfect Palette, I could not be more thrilled to finally share it on the blog here with all of you all today!

A Southern Soul

I love southern weddings. I especially love the look of a gorgeous classic southern wedding. When Linda and I were dreaming up this project, we really wanted to design an elegant and upscale southern wedding. We loved the idea of the classic southern wedding with charm and pearls. But, we also wanted to give it a slight modern twist while keeping it simple and filled with more meaningful details. Lastly, with blush being a huge color that has taken the industry by storm, we also wanted a to give a fresh take on the blush wedding trend by giving it a softer presence. The goal was to make it thoughtfully flow through each detail of the day without you even realizing it.

The Wright Farm

For those of you who may not know about The Wright Farm, it’s a gorgeous farm venue tucked away on over 50 acres in the tiny West Georgia town of Roopville. After hosting their daughters’ weddings there successfully, this family decided to turn their farm into a full-force wedding venue that gives bride’s the peace and quiet of a country southern wedding only an hour outside of the hustle and bustle of Atlanta.

When I pulled up to the venue for the first time, I immediately fell in love – and not just with the horses and the cattle that were in the pastures on either side of their 8,000 square foot barn! There’s a reason why I designed our tablescape with their barn doors in mind. That barn is seriously the perfect backdrop to any southern belle’s dream wedding.

Classic Southern Wedding with Modern Details

Like I mentioned, when designing this photoshoot, I really wanted to give a slight modern twist to the classic and elegant southern wedding that people may normally think of. To create a more timeless look, I really love mixing the ‘old’ and the ‘new’ when it comes to details. There’s just something magical about the vintage mix-matched china from The Prissy Plate Company and the vintage rentals from The Vintage Rental Co. Together with a heirloom family diamond ring and a classic white wedding cake from Confection Perfection Cakes, you can’t go wrong!

Meanwhile, I was all heart eyes seeing these ‘old’ details paired with the more modern elements. Southern Stems‘s stunning organic style bouquet and Fabulous Frocks of Atlanta‘s modern wedding gown next to The Modern Gent‘s navy and black tuxedo was like a match made in heaven. But, don’t get my started on one of my favorite details of them all – hand painted macarons from Cake Envy that were like a work of art themselves. Not to mention, they really were as good looking as they tasted. (Y’all, I couldn’t help myself!)

A Vendor ‘Dream Team’

Can we go ahead and talk about how amazing our team was? I couldn’t have been more excited for everyone involved when our shoot got picked up for publication by Modern Luxury Weddings Atlanta and then The Perfect Palette. I appreciate each and every one of these extremely talented vendors, and it was such an amazing experience getting to work alongside them all. It’s safe to say, I absolutely loved how everything came together and turned out! Each time I take a look back at these photographs from Linda Threadgill Photography, I can’t help but gush over all of the gorgeous details like it was just yesterday. Take a look at a snapshot of our swoon-worthy gallery below, and make sure to check out our features and vendor team!

Celebrating John’s first year of holidays is som Celebrating John’s first year of holidays is something that I have loved and looked forward to so much. While we will be teaching John the real meaning behind Easter as he grows, I think celebrating with a fun Easter basket each year will be a great way to kick off the Spring season. I remember growing up my mom always had Easter baskets waiting for us in the morning, with candy filled eggs, fun activities, and little seasonal toys / treats. My parents would hide those plastic eggs in our yard, and we’d hunt (and re-hunt) them for hours. It’s those memories and traditions that I cherish and hope to start with John this year. I had so much fun this week putting together a little basket for John’s first Easter. I shared all the details on what’s inside as well as a lot of other baby Easter basket ideas over on the blog today if you’re in need of last minute inspiration! ➡️ ahostinghome.com or click the link in my profile bio. ✨ #ahostinghome

I love when a shopping trip turns into a major str I love when a shopping trip turns into a major stroke of inspiration! We picked up these new beautiful stoneware dishes over the weekend, and I immediately felt so inspired to create a sweet and simple Spring tablescape with them. The lemon jars and greenery in my dough bowl give off a fresh Spring feel. Meanwhile, with the subtle touches of the season with the rabbit linen napkins and the garden label place cards, I think it’s really the perfect look for Easter, Mother’s Day, or any other meal with your loved ones that you want to make a little more special this Spring.

hello Spring,☀️👋🏼 so nice of you to join hello Spring,☀️👋🏼 so nice of you to join us. Leave the pollen at home and let’s make some memories. I don’t know about you but I am always SO excited at the start of a new season. I’m looking forward to our master bathroom / shower (hopefully 🤪) being finished — and a bunch of other DIY projects I have planned (and promise not to leave Rob in charge of 😂) to refresh our home this year. I’m also so excited for sunny days and warmer weather to start getting outside with this babe! ☀️👶🏼🦋 What are you looking forward to this Spring? I’ll be back tomorrow to share a simple spring tablescape in my dining room featuring some new dishes that I snagged while shopping this weekend! #ahostinghome
Can someone please tell me how this little nugget Can someone please tell me how this little nugget is 5 MONTHS OLD today!? 🌈🦋 John Robert is a spunky firecracker who would rather stand (and run) than practice sitting still. He loves his snuggle puppy (and real puppy, Willie 🐶), anything Sophie the giraffe, and rolling over to try to get out of tummy time. He’s currently kicking my butt sleep training and knows he has his mama wrapped around his little fingers! I love this sweet little man more than anything. 💛👶🏼 #ahostinghome @thecathynugent

Coming to y’all from baby jail — and when you’re a mom to a baby, 💩 happens. (No literally.) I’m all about making my life easier, and the @_mollieollie_ Mimmo Caddy has been one of my favorite new baby items because it keeps everything I need in one place. No more running around the house or back and forth to the nursery to grab baby essentials (and interrupting valuable play time!) It’s super durable, keeps its shape even when empty, and it’s made of a soft chemical-free felt material that makes it safe to hold all your baby’s essentials. Not to mention, POCKETS for all the things. 😍 I think what I’m most excited for though is how it’s going to make car diaper changes on our road trips this summer SO much easier. (Who else hates public restrooms? 🙋🏼‍♀️)

John Robert slept in his own room in his crib last John Robert slept in his own room in his crib last night for the first time (other than for naps) and I bawled like a baby as I prayed over him and rocked him to sleep. (&& then we saw each other again 2 hours later because #4monthsleepregression 😅) I know everyone tells you they grow up fast, but I feel like the past 4.5 months have gone by in a blink of an eye. I found myself SO upset already thinking of things I wish I had gotten to do in his newborn stage and wondering if I’m soaking up enough of the tiny precious moments I get with him everyday. (But really is that even possible?) Before I know it this room will be a big boy room, and then before I know it again he’ll be grown and on his own. I can’t wait to watch him grow up and experience life with him but oh gosh, I want him to stay this little forever. Andddd Here I go again... 😭🤧 #ahostinghome
