Kelley And Matt's Wedding




























































This past weekend, Kelley, who is my sister-in-law's sister, got married in Atlanta at the historic Biltmore. The Biltmore used to be a hotel that first opened in 1924. It burned and was damaged but not destroyed. Sometime in the 80s, it fell into disrepair and was closed. Recently, it has been renovated. The former hotel part was converted into private homes while the remaining ballrooms and event space was once up and running as just that, ballrooms. Sorry for all of the history on the Biltmore but you really have to see this place. For anyone who appreciates Wedgewood Jasperware, The Biltmore Ballrooms are a must see. The work here is unbelievable. One ballroom is the Wedgewood Blue room. This is the ballroom in which the wedding ceremony was. It looks exactly like Wedgewood Blue Jasperware. The cocktail hour was held in the Yellow themed Jasperware room. We then migrated into the Green Jasperware themed room for dinner and dancing. This room was off the charts. I could hardly believe my eyes. Not only was the event space beautiful but the space was beautifully appointed as well. There was a nice twist of modern and traditional. Anyway, enjoy the pics. The windows, columns, and of course, the Jasperware-esque ceiling work made my weekend!By the way, Kelley was a beautiful bride and we all had a great time!!
