A Stunning GA Wedding With Charm & A Floral Wedding Dress

Share with your friends! Pinterest LinkedIn Email Flipboard Reddit Just minutes from Downtown Savannah, GA, lies a small, charming chapel steeped in history. Nestled on the grounds of Bethesda Academy — the oldest continuously operating child-caring institution in the country — Whitefield Chapel has hosted its share of celebrity weddings, including those of Paula Deen and Mandy Moore. Pin On April 12, 2025, Nashville couple Macy Thompson and Charlie Gray tied the knot in this historic chapel. The event was full of thoughtful details — from colorful florals to live musical performances by a few of the couple's talented friends — but it was the bride's gown that truly stole the show (more on that later!). Pin 'My [now] husband is from Northern California, and I'm from Savannah, GA,' says Macy of how she picked her venue and location. 'We thought about doing a California wedding, but something called us to the mossy, charming city on the coast of Georgia. It's where my parents live, but I had also always dreamed of getting married in a small chapel with moss hanging down and the arches of the oak trees guiding me to my exit, so the Bethesda Whitefield Chapel was the best choice.' The best choice, indeed. The chapel's interior was quaint and full of charm, and Macy added subtle pops of color with floral accents. She then admits that her original color scheme was quickly forgotten when she found her dress. 'I had that classic wedding moment where everything I had pictured went straight out the window, including the bridesmaids' dress color. I needed to make sure everything tied back to my dress as much as possible without being a bridezilla,' Macy laughs. 'Thankfully, our wedding planning team at Elegant Savannah Weddings helped link us up with Hey Jude Florals.' Pin Pin Pin With bold, non-traditional florals setting the tone, it was only fitting that Macy's wedding dress made an equally unforgettable statement. Straying away from her 'Pinterest dreams,' Macy opted for the 'Esther' dress from Calla Blanche — a bold but perfect choice. 'I originally went shopping for a blush pink dress with feathers (I know it sounds ridiculous), but you know how it is when you find that one Pinterest wedding dress you dreamt about in middle school,' Macy recalls. 'I was ready to try on a ton of different dresses until I saw this beautiful, colorful dress. It reminded me of Scarlett O'Hara with the right amount of poof and color. It had a perfect sweetheart neckline, it was strapless (but with sleeves to add at the reception!), and it had a long train.' Pin For the reception, guests were welcomed to The Marshall House with fresh oysters, hors d'oeuvres, and signature cocktails. One of the most memorable moments of the night happened when two of the couple's talented Nashville friends took the stage. Their surprise performances were a nod to Macy and Charlie's love story and the musical roots they share with many of their closest friends. Pin Pin Pin Pin When it comes to advice for future brides, Macy says to go for the grand exit. 'You won't regret it,' she says. 'There are plenty of times to go out with your friends and hang out, but the whimsical feeling of setting sail into the night with your person is a moment you'll never want to miss.' Pin Pin When asked about the most memorable moment from her wedding day, Macy says nothing beats the quiet moments she spent with her groom. 'There were tiny moments, like right before we were announced at the reception, where it was just me and my husband,' she explains. 'We got to geek out a little together in the midst of everything. It helped slow down the evening a bit and recognize why we and everyone else were there to celebrate.'

(30 mL) capers A few shavings of Parmesan cheese (or Grana Padano) 1 lb (454 g) fingerling potatoes (or baby potatoes) 1 tsp. (5 mL) porcini powder (optional — or use steak spice or garlic powder) Salt and pepper, to taste Olive oil Caesar dressing Take the steaks out of the fridge 15 minutes before grilling. Rub lightly with olive oil, then season generously with salt, pepper and porcini powder (or steak seasoning). This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Preheat your BBQ on high heat at least 15-20 minutes ahead. Add potatoes to a pot of salted water and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook until fork-tender (about 12-15 minutes), then drain and chill in the fridge until completely cooled. This step can be done earlier in the day. Place steaks on the hot grill and flip every 2-3 minutes for even colour and cooking. Cook to your preferred doneness. Once done, remove and let rest for the same amount of time they were cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Brush romaine halves with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill on high heat for 2-3 minutes per side until slightly charred. Remove from grill, toss with Caesar dressing, and let sit for a few minutes to absorb the flavours. In a medium pan, fry pancetta or bacon in 1 tbsp. olive oil until crispy. Remove and set aside. In the same pan, fry capers until crispy (1-2 minutes). Remove and set aside. Add the cooled potatoes to the pan and fry until golden on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Essential reading for hockey fans who eat, sleep, Canucks, repeat.

Plate the grilled Caesar halves with crispy pancetta, capers and a few Parmesan shavings. Serve alongside the rested steak and crispy potatoes. Serves 2. BBQ Ribs Recipe by:Cardero's Chef Jason Kleinfeld Rib Rub 3 tbsp. (45 mL) brown sugar 1½ tbsp. (22.5 mL) chili powder 1 tsp. (5 mL) cayenne pepper (add more if you like it spicy) 1 tbsp. (15 mL) ground cumin 4 tbsp. (60 mL) smoked paprika 2 tbsp. (30 mL) celery seeds 1 tbsp. (15 mL) onion powder 1 tbsp. (15 mL) garlic powder 1 tbsp. (15 mL) ground black pepper Rib Baste/BBQ Glaze 1 cup (250 mL) ketchup 2 tbsp. (30 mL) molasses 1 tbsp. (15 mL) grainy Dijon mustard 2 tbsp. (30 mL) honey 2 tbsp. (30 mL) apple cider vinegar 2 tbsp. (30 mL) apricot marmalade Salt and pepper to taste This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. A splash or two of bourbon (optional) In a small bowl, mix all rub ingredients together. Taste and adjust to your liking — more sugar for sweet, more cayenne for kick. Set aside. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine all baste/glaze ingredients. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until everything is blended and warm. Divide into two portions — one for basting during grilling, one for finishing. 1 x 40-44 oz (1.2 kg) St. Louis side rib Preheat BBQ to about 275°F (135°C) using indirect heat. Pat ribs dry and generously apply the dry rub to both sides. Place ribs on a double layer of foil (parchment on top of meat if you want to prevent sticking). Add a splash of water or apple juice, then wrap tightly. Place the wrapped ribs on the indirect side of the grill, close the lid, and cook for 2½ to 3 hours. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Carefully unwrap the ribs — they should be tender but still hold together. Return ribs to the grill over direct heat, meat side down. Baste with BBQ glaze and grill uncovered for 5-10 minutes, turning and basting frequently, until caramelized and slightly charred on the edges. Let ribs rest for a few minutes, then slice between the bones. Serve with extra glaze, coleslaw, grilled corn, or potato salad for a classic BBQ feast. Make Ahead Tip: You can do the foil-wrapped portion up to two days in advance. Just chill the ribs after the first cook, then finish them on the BBQ when you're ready to serve. Serves 4. BBQ Chicken Kebabs with Naan Bites, Tomato Rice and Tzatziki Recipe by:Bae Side Corporate Chef Sumit Chauhan ½ lb (approx. 225 g) ground chicken This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 1 tbsp. (15 mL) red bell pepper, finely chopped 1 tbsp. (15 mL) green bell pepper, finely chopped 1 tbsp. (15 mL) red onion, finely chopped 1 tbsp. (15 mL) fresh cilantro, chopped ½ tsp. (2.5 mL) sumac powder (optional, for tang) ½ tsp. (2.5 mL) paprika ½ tsp. (2.5 mL) ground coriander ½ tsp. (2.5 mL) ground cumin ½ tsp. (2.5 mL) salt (or to taste) ¼ tsp. (1 mL) ground black pepper In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken with the chopped bell peppers, onion, cilantro and all the spices. Mix thoroughly with your hands for 5-10 minutes, until the mixture becomes sticky and well combined. This helps the kebabs hold their shape on the grill. Divide the mixture into 4-6 portions. With damp hands, shape each portion around a skewer, pressing it into a long, flat sausage shape (about 6-8 inches long). If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes beforehand to prevent burning. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Preheat your BBQ to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the kebabs on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, turning carefully with tongs. Cook until the chicken is fully cooked through and has nice grill marks. Gently remove the kebabs from the skewers and serve hot. Pair with naan bites, tomato rice, grilled vegetables and a generous spoonful of tzatziki. Garnish with microgreens or fresh herbs and a bit of coleslaw for extra crunch, if desired. Makes 4-6 kebabs.
