A Shabulous Day at the Farm

Spring is sliding into summer and its time to take advantage of the gorgeous weather and budding trees.  Birds are singing and bugs are out buzzing and I can't think of anything better to do but to throw some chandeliers into the trees and marvel at their beauty!  Shabulous loaded up the truck and headed to our favorite family farm at the Moore's!  We were anxiously greeted by apple hungry horses, Henry and Buddy.  Once they had their feast on the bag of granny smiths we brought along, it was time for the photo shoot!  Both beauties were naturals at modeling and actually seemed to enjoy all of the attention.

Check out the pics from our romp at the ranch!  You can find these and other chandeliers perfect for your wedding, event, or as a conversation piece at your outdoor space in my shop!

A Shabulous Barn Wedding

An account of

Melissa and Ryan's big day!

The air was crisp and the smells were fresh.  Bridesmaids and bees were buzzing about with last minute tasks and excitement.  Melissa and Ryan with their chosen few were anxiously preparing for this day that will bound their lives forever.  The scene is set on a sweet piece of land complete with horse barn stables and draping fence along rolling hills.  This all backed by fragrant dense Georgia pines.

Enjoy an inside look at a true southern wedding fit for a true Georgia peach!

With a full-on BBQ buffet the event serves up a strong southerly appetite.  Pulled pork, stewed green beans, specialty potato salad and more satisfy those who have come to share the day!

It was both food and fun for the remainder of the evening while the bride and groom raised the barn with their best dance moves!

It was a perfect day with a perfect ending!
