The St. Regis Atlanta weddings
For a small wedding, look at Maisonette, listed at up to 80 banquet, 130 reception. A Beaux Arts style hotel on West Paces Ferry Road with ten event rooms and more than 27,000 square feet for events. Its Astor Ballroom is the largest seated room in this guide among the hotels, at up to 690 for dinner. The open air Grand Terrace beside the Pool Piazza takes up to 130 seated and can be tented. A three story space called the Maisonette suits a rehearsal dinner.

How I Would Photograph A Wedding Here
A small room in a big hotel works best when you also use the rest of the building. I look for the lobby, a staircase or a window for portraits, and photograph the small room before the guests come in so it looks as good as it felt.
This venue publishes outdoor space, so I would plan around the sun. Look up the sunset for your month first and work back from it. With a small group, twenty quiet minutes outside before sunset are easy to fit in, and they make the photographs couples frame.
Big windows are the best light indoors. I would put the two of you near them for getting ready and for a few portraits, and keep the room lights low so the color stays clean.
A small wedding is a gift for photographs. Everyone fits in the frame, the toasts are personal, and there is time to wander for portraits without leaving guests waiting.
Ask where you will get ready. A bright room with a big window makes the dress, the details and those first quiet minutes look their best, and at a small wedding it is often where the best candid photographs happen.
Questions To Ask The St. Regis Atlanta
- What is the food and beverage minimum for our date, and what does the package include?
- If it rains, which indoor room holds the ceremony, and when do we have to decide?
- Can we bring in an outside caterer for a cultural menu, and is there a fee?
- Is there a suite for getting ready, and does it have a big window?
- Is the small package allowed on our day of the week, and how far ahead can we book it?
- Does the guest limit count the officiant and the photographer?
- Where can we take portraits, and is the space private to us the whole time?
Send me the answers and your date, and I will plan the photographs and the film around them. Check your date.
Plan The Day
A Wedding Day At The St. Regis Atlanta
The St. Regis Atlanta lists outdoor space, so the ceremony time is the one decision that changes every photograph. I like a ceremony that ends a little more than an hour before sunset. The light is softer, guests are not squinting into the sun, and we walk straight from the recessional into portraits while the sky warms up. The St. Regis Atlanta does not publish a rain plan, so ask for it in writing and walk the backup room on your tour.
The times below are worked out from the sunset in Atlanta on the 15th of each month, with daylight saving included. Move everything earlier in winter and later in June.
| Month | Ceremony | Portraits Begin | Sunset | Blue Hour Ends |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| May | 6:45 PM | 7:30 PM | 8:30 PM | 9:00 PM |
| October | 5:20 PM | 6:05 PM | 7:05 PM | 7:35 PM |
Getting ready photos usually start about two hours before the ceremony, so book hair and makeup to finish thirty minutes before I arrive.
