A Beautiful Celebration at 716 West in Decatur, GA: T&M’s Wedding

We recently had the absolute pleasure of capturing T&M’s wedding at 716 West in Decatur, GA (formerly known as the Mary Gay House). It was one of those unforgettable days where everything just felt right.

T&M are both writers, and as you can imagine, their wedding was filled with meaningful, heartfelt vows that truly reflected their love story. They shared a beautiful first look at the venue, a quiet moment together before the festivities began, and from there, the day unfolded in the best way.

During the ceremony, they had a live violinist, which added an incredibly personal touch to the moment. We always love when couples incorporate live music—it creates such a unique atmosphere, and T&M’s ceremony felt even more intimate because of it.

Their friends and family were all so welcoming and excited to celebrate the day. There were also some fun and unique touches throughout the reception that made it one to remember. For the cake cutting, T&M used a sword (yes, a sword!) to slice into their elegant cake, which was beautifully adorned with fresh fruit. They also had a handmade cake topper featuring two cats, tails intertwined to form a heart with “T&M” engraved—a sweet personal detail that stood out.

And let’s talk about the champagne pyramid! The amazing staff at 716 West helped create a stunning display that made for a great photo moment. It added a little extra flair to the celebration and was just one of the many elements that made this wedding so special.

T&M’s love of books and writing shone through in their decor. On the book signing table, they had bubbles for guests to take as well as bookmarks with cute details about their special day. As a thoughtful favor, guests were gifted jars of honey with a honeycomb spoon attached—such a sweet and memorable touch! The reception tables were also beautifully decorated with stacks of books tied together as centerpieces, adding to the personal, literary vibe of their day.

Weddings like T&M’s remind us why we love what we do. It was a day filled with love, laughter, and moments that felt true to who they are as a couple. We’re honored to have been a part of their story.
