We had the most flawless, amazing, magical event with Live Wire. From the day we first inquired to our follow-up emails, the staff at Live Wire was amazing. We hosted a sorority graduation event for 40 families with 200 people gathered for both dining and live music. Even though Live Wire does not provide food, they do allow catering and were super helpful, coordinating with Saucehouse to make dinner fabulous. The space itself is cool, roomy and has both inside and outside areas that worked perfectly for our dining needs and live music. The staff was amazing. They made sure the band and tech were all covered and made the transition from dinner to dancing seamless. Erin and Erika were our contacts and they simply performed without fail. From our first inquiry to our final email, they were amazing. There were no hidden fees or surprise charges, and they have a digital platform for easy payment and communication. I can not say enough about this event space and the Live Wire staff. Thank you for making this night memorable. What a way to send these graduates off!

The Venue on Broad is absolutely beautiful and was the perfect spot for our wedding reception. Everything about the space is thoughtfully designed from the decked out bridal suite to the string lit patio space - it is just perfection. The best part of it might have been the staff. Summerlin and Mikayla were the absolute best to work with. They were super helpful and quick to answer all my questions leading up to our wedding day (there were a lot). And the food!! They were super accommodating to create a delicious custom menu for our wedding reception. Several people told us it was the best wedding food they have ever had. Our entire reception was beautiful and ran ever so smoothly thanks to them and my wedding planner, Thailer Waterworth.

Once my fiancé and I got engaged, there was no question to who our wedding photographer would be. Tara Wilburn Photography is AMAZING! Being a wedding photographer myself, I knew that I wanted a crisp, timeless style and Tara's portfolio is just that! We had a destination wedding in the mountains and Tara was so helpful in planning out the details of the timeline so that our day went smoothly! Our wedding gallery is filled with gorgeous images of everything we could have wanted and more! She captured our day flawlessly. It is SO important to hire a professional photographer for your wedding day. Weddings go by way too fast and the only way to remember each detail of your day is by flipping through your wedding gallery. At the end of the day, all you have left are the pictures. Tara captured something that we will treasure forever! We had a wonderful experience with her. Tara is the photographer's photographer! Highly recommend!

When we were looking for a caterer, Trump’s Catering came highly recommended by our venue. We worked with Christina who was very responsive and helpful. We were able to attend a Spring tasting at their location in Athens which helped us shape our final menu. On the day of the wedding, the staff was timely and set up without issue. We were happy with the fruits, veggies, meat and cheese platters we had chosen. During the dinner, everyone spoke highly of the food and enjoyed having various options at the dessert station. The staff were even kind enough to box a dinner for a guest who was unable to attend the seated meal. We would recommend Trump’s Catering for any big event you have. Their food is delicious and their staff are exceptional.

Hi bride! I'm Michele Houston Romans. I've been photographing weddings since 2013 when I started my business in college at the University of Georgia. I not only fell in love with creating beautiful images, but also with creating an incredible experience for couples as well.

Michelle works with a quiet confidence and her images are proof of her talent. She has an ability to capture the most magical of moments and make the ordinary extraordinary. Her clean, bright, and warm style is modern and timeless at the same time. She is calm and caring with her couples and that translates to a seamless wedding day.

Would you like to remember everything? Well, if you ask me the answer is YESSSS! When it comes to your wedding day, of course you want to remember everything! You want to remember all the details you put so much hard work into, your new spouse wiping away those happy tears as you walk down the aisle, and your grandparent getting down on the dance floor!

We booked Darby for our engagement photos and our wedding back in June. I honestly cannot recommend her enough. She is so kind and fun to work with, talented at her craft, and creative in her vision. Every photo we have received is amazing and beautiful. Our photos truly look like art and I cannot wait to get some printed out. She made our wedding look like a dreamy fairytale and worked so well even when we had to take photos outside in the rain! Her positive attitude was infectious and she made our day that much more fun. Thank you Darby!!!
