What an amazing time! If you weren’t able to make it, this is what you missed. The night started at the Bridal Bar, allowing brides, vendors and press to peruse through bridal gown, invitation, and floral displays, not to mention the MOUNTAIN of Godiva chocolates to pick at while you look. Owners and vendors were on hand to explain what the Bridal Bar is all about and to answer any questions and our lovely sponser Jezebel Magazine was on hand taking pictures of guests.

Then, waiting outside was the limo bus to shuttle guests to and from the reception at Lee Brant Jewelers. When you arrive at the reception, you step out onto the “pink carpet” where there was the oh so chic, step and repeat provided by Our Labor of Love.

Once inside the store you are taken aback by the size of this place! We were immediately handed a piece of paper and pen to be entered into a drawing for a $500 gift certificate, and I don’t know who won that price, but whomever they are, I’m sure they’re heaven! Admittedly I have never been to Lee Brant Jewelers, but I know better now. They have some of the most amazing pieces I have ever seen! Definitely top notch! As I’m getting sucked in by looking at the cases and cases of jewelry, I can’t help but to start bopping my head to the music coming over the speakers. I look around to see who’s DJing, and it’s none other than the talented and hilarious Joel from Lethal Rhythms.

Upstairs is packed to the hilt with guests trying to get their fill on the delicious tasting stations that were set up. Soiree, Epting Events, Sun In My Belly, and Gloriosa had some fabulous food prepared. Can you say “mmmmm…tenderloin sliders.” Also upstairs were a ton of bite size cupcakes in every imaginable flavor. Kudos to Sweet N Sinful, Lu Lu’s Bakery, and Sweet Sensations for blowing my diet. Not that I mind, but I need someone to blame for extra pounds. D-lic!

It was hot and packed, but also fun and eye opening. I got to see my fellow vendors in action, doing what they do best and realizing why they too were chosen to be a part of the Bridal Bar Atlanta. Simply an amazing group of individuals who are talented and truly have a passion for what they do. I felt honored to be considered “one of them.”

I’ll sign out and leave you with a few photos from the Smile Booth provided by Our Labor of Love.
