Both the ceremony and reception will be held the evening of April 30, 2011, at The Solarium, 321 West Hill Street, Decatur, GA 30030.
We’d also like to invite our wedding guests to join us Sunday morning at Morgan Falls Outlook Park for a picnic brunch.
Both locations (and our house) are marked with special icons on the map below.
