When Jonathan and Jordan envisioned their wedding day, they dreamed of a celebration that was both timeless and unexpected. They wanted tradition, but they also wanted a wow factor—and West Midtown delivered in the most beautiful way.
The Ceremony: Collier Hall
Their journey down the aisle began at Collier Hall, a stunning venue with deep roots in history. Once a church, the space still carries that sacred aura, with breathtaking stained glass windows casting a soft glow across the room. Candles lined the aisle and framed the altar, their flickering light adding warmth and romance to the already enchanting space. For Jonathan and Jordan, Collier Hall was the perfect blend of faith, beauty, and elegance.
The Reception: The Dogwood ATL
After “I do,” the celebration shifted gears at The Dogwood ATL. Just minutes away from Collier Hall, this venue offered a sleek, modern contrast that left guests buzzing. With its industrial-chic vibe and completely unique design, it set the stage for a reception that was both stylish and unforgettable. Centerpieces filled with candles bathed the tables in soft light, creating an atmosphere that felt intimate yet sophisticated—exactly the kind of wow moment the couple had imagined.
To make the day even smoother for their loved ones, Jonathan and Jordan arranged for shuttle buses to transport guests from Collier Hall to The Dogwood ATL. Along the ride, snacks and sips were waiting to be enjoyed, ensuring the celebration never skipped a beat. It was a thoughtful detail that made guests feel cared for and kept the energy flowing between venues.
What made this wedding even more special was how it showcased two of West Midtown’s newest gems. By pairing the historic charm of Collier Hall with the modern energy of The Dogwood ATL, Jonathan and Jordan highlighted the area’s versatility and proved just how inspiring these spaces can be for couples looking to make their mark.
The wedding palette tied everything together: slate blue and navy blue with a pop of green. The soft neutrals and rich tones reflected the couple’s sophisticated style, while the green brought vibrancy and freshness to the overall design. Paired with the glow of countless candles, the look was nothing short of magical.
Jonathan and Jordan’s wedding wasn’t just a union of two hearts—it was an experience. With Collier Hall’s history, The Dogwood ATL’s flair, the romantic glow of candlelight, and thoughtful touches like guest shuttles, the couple curated a day that will be remembered not only for the vows spoken and the music danced to, but also for the way it reimagined West Midtown as one of Atlanta’s most exciting wedding destinations.
