Genya + Pete

Okay, we know we're not supposed to have favorites, and we are ridiculously fortunate to have a bevy of amazing couples who ask us to be a part of their wedding, but this one may take the cake. This wedding is incredibly special to us, and we are in seventh heaven to share Genya + Pete's celebration with you. We first met Genya at Kendell + Patrick's extravagant wedding in Highlands, NC- remember those drop-dead photos? Well that was Genya, and her amazing company, Vue Photography, one of the newest members of Studio1658. We immediately clicked and a year and some change later, were more than thrilled to cater Genya + Pete's wedding celebration at Magnolia Hall, in Piedmont Park.
Genya + Pete are tremendously athletic and active, and they are the type of people who don't take themselves too seriously. It was such a treat to watch them dodge rain drops together, as an evening summer shower hardly held off long enough for them to say, "I do." We are smitten with these images shot around Midtown and in Piedmont Park by Paperlily Photography. Liz at Adaptations' floral design and ultra fun fabric chandeliers were spot on. 
The whole night revolved around family, fun and food. Before the ceremony, King of Pops cooled guests down, and after, they noshed on lamb meatballs with mint + mango chutney and pomegranate chicken skewers. As regulars at the cafe, Genya's girls had only one request for the dinner menu- mac n' cheese! But our coca-cola glazed ham with spicy mustard + miniature biscuits, zucchini and corn fritters with a grape tomato fondue, and miso glazed salmon with blueberry compote were huge hits too. Everyone's sweet tooth was satisfied, as we provided mini desserts and Piece of Cake supplied a variety of delish delicacie.

Genya + Pete's affection is intoxicating, and we are glad to witness it, and to have been a part of their sweet southern celebration.

Cheers,
SIMB
