Describe your wedding cake: I wanted a strawberry cake and Newton wanted a chocolate cake, but l didn’t want chocolate and he doesn’t like strawberries. So, we compromised with a Hummingbird cake with butter cream icing. I’m so glad we did! The cake was delicious, and all of our guests absolutely loved it. We got so many compliments.
What was the biggest challenge you had to overcome while planning your wedding? The bridesmaid dresses! I couldn’t find anything in the store that was even remotely close to what I wanted, so we decided to have them sewn by a local seamstress. The dresses seemed fine, from a distance, but they were ill-fitting and poorly sewn. It was too late to have them fixed, so we added yellow sashes the day of the wedding. Thankfully, my mom and another friend are great with a needle and thread and they made the dresses wearable. No one knew any different!
What was your most memorable moment about your wedding day? There are so many to choose from, but we would have to say our first dance. Newton is a great dancer and I can keep up most of the time, so we did a swing dance to “You’re my Best Friend” by Queen. That was the most fun moment of our wedding! Everyone thought we had choreographed the dance, but Newton made it up as he went.
What’s next for you as a couple? What are you looking forward to in the future? We plan to stay in Athens, GA for at least one more year. After that, we have no idea where our next adventure will be. We look forward to traveling in the future.
