BB Webb’s Wedding Wisdom

So now you know that Monika is one of our little secrets.  Carl House is home to so many great weddings, and as we continue to share  our Carl House Wedding & Events Specialst, Monika Williams wonderful story.   Now you know that her sincerety in helping brides and grooms plan the best wedding for them at Carl House, comes from her very own wedding a few short years ago:

Wedding Memories Shared Every Day of the Week

Chapter Two:  Monika and Kenny’s Wedding Day

“The night before the wedding, there was hail—in June—but by the next day the weather was perfect,” Monika recalls.  “Our plan was to have the ceremony in the garden, but knowing that the grand ballroom, with its dramatic double staircase and fireplace was the backup plan and could accommodate all of my guests in one room, really gave me peace of mind.  I loved both options—inside and out.”

When couples ask about the Carl House North Georgia location, Monika shares her wedding experience, which combined the best aspects of a destination wedding with a convenient local affair.

“Hotels near the Mall of Georgia are just 9 miles away, and one even offers a free shuttle to Carl House,” she explains.  “So it works well for both Atlanta-based and out of town guests.”

Another thing that Monika says influenced her decision to choose Carl House for her wedding was her desire for an environment with a traditional but neutral décor that wouldn’t conflict with her chosen colors—fuchsia and sage green.  She appreciated how the entire house was already decorated and that she didn’t have to spend unnecessary money to make it look like a wedding venue–she arrived and everything was taken care of for her.  She also loved the elegant bride’s room, and today she’ll often advise brides to have their hair and makeup done ahead of time, so that they can maximize their time having photos taken in the vintage, antique-filled suite.
