Hannah and Matt’s wedding day was a beautifully intimate celebration, thoughtfully crafted to honor their love story in the presence of their nearest and dearest. Surrounded by 30 of their closest friends and family, they created unforgettable memories in the heart of Buckhead, Atlanta.

Their Love Story

Both Hannah and Matt are accomplished personal injury lawyers who met under serendipitous circumstances. They were nominated together as top young attorneys in Georgia. Initially, Hannah wasn’t interested in Matt, perceiving him to be somewhat arrogant, while Matt thought Hannah was overly conscientious. However, as they got to know each other, they realized how inaccurate their first impressions were. Their relationship blossomed, culminating in a memorable proposal in Hawaii. Matt orchestrated a family trip to Maui, where he proposed to Hannah in front of the stunning backdrop of the ocean and mountains, creating a magical moment they would never forget.

The Wedding Day

The day commenced with an elegant poolside ceremony at the Waldorf Astoria Buckhead. The hotel’s serene and luxurious ambiance provided the perfect setting for the couple’s vows. With its exquisite architecture and meticulously landscaped gardens, the Waldorf Astoria offered a picturesque backdrop that complemented the couple’s sophisticated style. The intimate setting allowed their guests to feel a deep connection to the ceremony, enhancing the warmth and love that pervaded the event.

Following the heartfelt ceremony, the celebration continued at Lazy Betty Atlanta, renowned for its exceptional multi-course tasting menus. Guests were treated to a culinary journey that showcased the finest seasonal ingredients and innovative cooking techniques. Each course was a delightful surprise, meticulously prepared to offer a unique dining experience that perfectly matched the elegance of the day.

Special Moments

For Hannah, the most important part of their wedding day was gathering all the people she loves in one space and capturing them having a good time.

Matt complemented the whimsical theme of the day with a custom green Sid Mashburn suit. The entire celebration was brought to life with lush and colorful florals by Ginger Rose Flowers, incorporating vibrant purple, pink, and orange tones that added a joyful and enchanting atmosphere to the event.

Lessons Learned from Each Other

Hannah, who is always on the go, learned the beauty of relaxing and doing nothing from Matt, who is incredibly laid-back. Matt learned to embrace all the quirky parts of himself that he used to hide, thanks to Hannah’s unconditional love and acceptance. She taught him that doing crazy dances, playing guitar, and just being himself are wonderful qualities.

They make an intentional effort to pay attention to these daily moments together, which strengthens their bond and brings joy to their relationship.
