  Jenna & Daniel

      When Jenna and Daniel started planning their May 29 wedding, they knew it was history in the making. So what better venue for their nuptials than Barnsley Gardens Resort in Adairsville, a home and estate built out of a strong, true love between the owner and his wife? “We loved The Ruins’ rustic yet refined charm, and the beautiful box gardens,” Jenna says. “We had never seen any place like it.”
 
      To complement this elegant and unique location, Jenna chose a beautiful Watters wedding dress that blended in seamlessly with the resort’s surroundings. She knew it was “The Dress” the moment she tried it on. “For me, it was important that my dress suited my personality as well as the wedding venue,” Jenna says. “My dress was modern, yet had a very Old World vintage look. I was drawn to the intricate details and flower appliqués. I knew it was ‘The Dress’ because I felt so amazing in it. All it really comes down to is the way you feel when you have the dress on.”

      Jenna credits Melissa, Flo and Robin at Bridals by Lori with helping her find her dream gown. “I had heard great things about Bridals by Lori’s selection and service,” she says.

      Other unique and special touches for the wedding included a six-tier cake with chocolate and orange cream and white with raspberry cream, designed by A Perfect Wedding Cake in Marietta and enclosed by a “birdcage” created by Edge Designs in Roswell. Jenna also was surprised by two moss sculptures of her dogs, Kylee and Annie, which were handmade by her mother.

      However, the most memorable moment for both Jenna and Daniel came when Jenna started her walk down the aisle. “The first moment Jenna came down the aisle and I saw how beautiful she looked, my nerves transformed to happiness,” Daniel says. Jenna recalls a similar sentiment. “My most favorite memory is the look on Dan’s face when I was walking down the aisle,” Jenna says. “It was so sweet and emotional. I remember thinking I couldn’t wait to see that face every day for the rest of my life.”
