hurch ceremony and THE BILTMORE BALLROOMS reception were every bit the tradition, class and old-world elegance that the couple had hoped for. Choosing a black and white color scheme accented by silver and gold, Morgan and Eric -- along with floral and event designer Britt Wood -- focused on designing details that would make their wedding weekend truly memorable. Following an intimate, traditional ceremony at pEACHTREE CHRISTIAN CHURCH, friends and family joined the happy couple at the Biltmore Ballrooms for an evening of -- as Morgan put it -- “the perfect cross between southern charm and sheer elegance.” May we add, old-world glamour? Hundreds of candles and romantic white flowers of all heights filled the baroque style ballroom with its crystal chandeliers and grand ceilings. Keeping in tradition with the reception venue’s historical charm, Morgan and Eric hired DJ Chris Hall to incorporate the original vibe of the Biltmore into the evening: A big band and jazz set during dinner, while subtly transitioning to more current favorites as the celebrating went on into the night. As the evening came to a close, Morgan and Eric got away in a 1942 Packard complete with a banner signed by friends and family. For their first week as husband and wife, the couple traveled to St. Thomas to snorkel, relax, and soak in the bliss of their beautiful wedding and new lives together.
