Jenna and Rob, October 2009

Jenna and Rob immediately knew there was no better place for them to wed than Cuscowilla on Lake Oconee in October of 2009. “Cuscowilla was recommended to us by a friend, and once we visited, we barely got past the welcome gate before we both knew this was the perfect place for us to get married.”

Cuscowilla on Lake Oconee is a 700-acre golf resort and residential community located 70 miles east of Atlanta. “It was exactly what we wanted and turned out to be even better than we expected.”

The couple chose to have both the ceremony and reception at Cuscowilla. All of their guests were conveniently able to stay at three different Cuscowilla accommodations for the weekend. Cuscowilla’s Golf Cottages, Lake Villas, and Lodge Villas were just a short walk from the ceremony and reception location.

The ceremony took place on a green lawn, which was surrounded by beautiful Lake Oconee. Jenna’s six bridesmaids and one junior bridesmaid wore beautiful, long teal dresses by Watters. The bride carried a deep purple bouquet of flowers by her florist, Desire’s Floral Design Studio.

Only a few steps from the ceremony, The Waterside Restaurant hosted the reception. Guests were greeted with pretzel bites and Italian sausage and Romano cheese stuffed mushroom caps. The dinner buffet featured crab topped tilapia, garlic and thyme scented broccoli, and grilled asparagus.

Alpine Bakery designed the unique white chocolate raspberry truffle wedding cake. For the wedding favor, guests were able to create their own “goody bag” of candy, selecting from Jenna and Rob’s favorite candies in large jars, along with homemade cookies, made by the bride’s mom.

After the first dance to “Amazed” by Lonestar, guests enjoyed dancing the night away to tunes provided by Ambience Event Services.

Jenna and Rob left the reception by golf cart while guests blew bubbles and threw streamers. Eric Little Photography captured each moment of the couple’s special day. “Our favorite moment was just after we were announced husband and wife, and we walked back down the aisle together holding hands, seeing all of our family and closest friends smiling, clapping, and crying.”
