A Vibrant Summer Garden Party at The Lumpkin House

January 23, 2025

Boy oh boy, what a MAGICAL experience June 29th was with Graci and Dawson! Graci reached out to me a few days after getting engaged and shared her dreams of a colorful, floral filled day and I’m so happy she chose me to be a part. She and Dawson are high school sweethearts, were soon to be Alabama grads, and had their hearts set on a big wedding in their hometown with all of the people they love most. 

Graci chose one of the most beautiful venues in Alabama, The Lumpkin House, for the backdrop of their big day. Impeccable design, so well kept, and top notch staff – this place is just fabulous! We opted to have the ceremony inside with a gorgeous deconstructed floral arch back drop and an aisle full of beautiful grounded arrangements. On the back lawn, a garden party style reception awaited guests and they dined under a beautiful, cozy tent.

So many incredible details in this day that I just lovedddd. The wedding crest, designed by AP Prints, was used all throughout the day on the stationery, embroidered pillows, napkins, fans, cups, and more! The very intentional tables capes FULL of color. Green, pink, and blue were our focal colors of the day and we wanted them to shine not only in the flowers, but in the table linens, napkins, and glassware as well. A mixture of patterns, textures, gorgeous florals, and all the beautiful candlelight. You should’ve seen it in person! 

And the sentimentals – Graci got ready in her childhood home. The pups got to give her loving and have a photo session with her. Her cousin sang during the ceremony. She and Dawson shared sweet private vows. Graci and her mom had a mother daughter dance (which was a surprise for her mom!).  They rode off from the reception in Dawson’s grandfathers vintage car. And SO much more. The love poured into these wedding days and all the special moments truly make them what they are. 

Graci and Dawson, your day will always be a favorite for me! And all of the time we shared together! Counting my lucky stars to know and love the Amoses and wishing you guys all of the best!!!
