Amanda & Axel: A Classic Savannah Wedding Weekend
Featured In This Article:
Axel and Amanda’s wedding was the kind of celebration that fully embraced everything Savannah does best: historic charm, meaningful moments, and a full weekend experience shared with the people they love most!
The festivities began with a rehearsal celebration at The Alida Hotel, setting the tone for a weekend that felt both elevated and relaxed. It was the perfect way to welcome guests into the city and kick off the celebration in style before the main event.
For the wedding day, the couple chose a traditional ceremony setting at Bethesda Academy, surrounded by beautiful oaks draped in that classic Spanish moss. The setting created a timeless backdrop as Amanda made her way down the aisle, leading into a gorgeous, heartfelt ceremony.
Amanda’s bridal look was effortlessly classic: a structured gown paired with soft, romantic details and a bouquet filled with rich, muted tones. Her florals brought in a subtle depth of color that stood out beautifully against the natural Savannah landscape. Axel complemented the look in a timeless black tuxedo, keeping the overall aesthetic clean and refined.
Following the ceremony, the couple took full advantage of Savannah’s iconic scenery for their portraits. Beneath the moss-covered trees and along quiet pathways, their photos captured both the beauty of the city and the joy of the day. A vintage-style trolley from Elite Savannah Travel added a fun and practical touch, transporting guests while also tying into the classic Savannah feel.
Wonderfully planned by Elegant Savannah Weddings, every part of the weekend flowed seamlessly. From coordinating multiple locations to ensuring a smooth guest experience, their team brought everything together in a way that allowed Axel and Amanda to stay fully present throughout each moment.
