A Timeless Celebration at the Iconic Swan House

Bailey and Matt’s wedding day was nothing short of extraordinary. Hosted at the Swan House in Atlanta, GA, this celebration embodied everything a classic and elegant wedding should be — refined details, unforgettable moments, and a setting steeped in history. The grandeur of the Swan House provided the perfect backdrop for their love story, blending old-world sophistication with modern style.

The Bride’s Effortless Style: Prada, Cartier & More

Bailey stunned in her wedding day look, pairing her timeless gown with Prada bridal shoes — a detail that elevated her entire ensemble with understated luxury. Her accessories completed the vision: a Cartier wedding band paired with an emerald-cut diamond engagement ring, both timeless symbols of sophistication. The combination of couture design and heirloom-worthy jewelry mirrored the couple’s vision for their day: fashion-forward yet deeply rooted in classic elegance.

Ceremony at the Swan House

Surrounded by manicured gardens and sweeping architecture, Bailey and Matt exchanged vows in one of Atlanta’s most iconic wedding venues. The Swan House ceremony space set the tone for the entire event: grand, romantic, and unforgettable.

Reception Highlights & Design Details

Shelby Elaine Studios, the planner and coordinator for the day, curated a reception that was both timeless and tailored to the couple’s style. Guests were welcomed into a reception that showcased elevated details and a warm, celebratory atmosphere.

Sweet Indulgences

The wedding cake by Artful Cakery by Julie was as much a centerpiece as it was a dessert. Crafted with precision and artistry, it reflected the couple’s refined taste.

An Oyster Tower & a Swan Ice Sculpture

One of the most talked-about details of the evening was the Oyster Tower by Prissy Place Company, which brought a playful and luxurious touch to cocktail hour. Adding to the wow factor was a swan-shaped ice sculpture from Ice Sculpture Inc. Atlanta — a nod to the venue’s name and a detail guests won’t soon forget.

A Grand Exit in a Rolls-Royce

To close the night, Bailey and Matt made their getaway in a classic Rolls-Royce, the perfect send-off for a wedding defined by elegance and timelessness. The image of them leaving the Swan House in such style was the epitome of an Atlanta fairytale ending.
