About Me: Mr. Magnolia and I are thrilled to be planning an evening, winter wedding for 200 people in Atlanta. We both work in politics and share a love of University of Georgia football, pop culture, and good food! I'm a runner who adores wedding magazines, bad reality television, and a
good glass of wine. Most of the time I like to think I'm pretty organized, but between wedding planning, house hunting, and a full-time job, I'm being put to the test!
To Tide You (And Me!) Over…
January 29th, 2008 @ 12:22 pm by Mrs. Magnolia
I’m patiently waiting on my pro pics (two or three more weeks to go!), but until then, I wanted to post some of the guest pics I’ve received over the last few weeks. I love how even my guests were able to capture some fabulous moments that I otherwise might have missed…
Cutting our fab cake. Seriously, it turned out even more beautiful than I ever thought it could!
Posing with our Supper Club group… they were so funny. As soon as we finished cutting the cake, they made a mad dash for us and yelled, “Supper Club picture!” Flash, flash, flash, and they all ran away!
Chatting with my wonderful makeup artist/cousin and his partner.
This picture cracks me up. That’s three (yes, three) of my bridesmaids huddled on the right, trying to stay warm as they wait for Mr. Magnolia and me to exit. You’d think it was frigid out there, except that their husbands/boyfriends are on the left, sleeves rolled up like it’s springtime! Our photographers find this all very humorous…
Sparkler exit! Yay!
(See the navy and white ribbon tied to the sparkler stem? I single-handedly tied 210 of those suckers…)
I love this - after Mr. Magnolia and I depart in the limo, someone captured my parents walking back into the club alone. So cute!
I know, it’s not much. But it’s all I’ve got for now! Enjoy!

Beautiful pictures! I LOVE the sparklers photo- can’t wait to see how it comes out on the pro pics.
Guest pics are great…at least everyone’s here seem to be. It took me a year to get any from my guests.
Can’t wait to see the pro pics!
It looks like everyone was having a great time! I can’t wait to see the pro-pics!
yay!!! so happy that you have something of an appetizer beore the main course!
we’re counting down with you……21 days, 20 days….sigh…..
Do you have a clearer photograph of your cake? I love it!
Your dress is just too pretty— everytime I see your wedding photos, I’m just taken with how beautiful it is!!!
Weird…for whatever reason, it’s not letting me comment with my icon. Oh well.
Anyway, Carlizzie - for now, that’s the best shot I have of the cake! But I anticipate lots of fabulous cake porn when I get my pro pics! 
You look so pretty…and TALL! And yeah, the professional shots of those sparklers are probably going to be incredible.
wow that’s a ton of hand-tied sparklers, there. You looked so lovely!
beautiful photos! You look wonderful! That cake is soooo pretty. I love the sparklers too - can you tell us how many you ordered for the number of people? I’m not sure how many to order since not everyone stays until the end (they won’t serve as my favors, just something fun to do as we leave). Thanks!
There photos are great, and I LOVE the sparkler idea! I can’t wait to hear more about your vendors, as I’m starting to plan a wedding in the ATL area also. I’d love any info you’d like to pass along!
[…] here we go! I’ve shown y’all some details, and you’ve seen some non-pro pics, but it’s now that time to really start posting our professional wedding pictures by the fabulous […]
