I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted true wedding planning advice. But, I think this will cover me for a while. I think I’ve mentioned planning outdoor events before.

Next up on my venue research is the really versatile 755 Club at Turner Field (home of the Atlanta Braves). Cynthia Phelps, events manager, was kind enough (and really fun) to show me around the club. It is quite obvious as to why the 755 Club is so appealing. If there were one sure-fire way [...]

I visited Opera last week and got a fantastic tour from Lindsey, the event coordinator on staff. Can I just say that I haven’t seen such a unique event facility in a long time? Fabulous. It’s kind of tucked out of the way in mid-town Atlanta, but it is so worth the look. This is [...]

As many of you know, I have become a very regional event planner. I seem to be traveling all over. I kind of pride myself on it. Personally, I think that the more you see, the better you become. It makes me more well rounded. I have the opportunity to work with all kinds of [...]
