My daughter was married here today!…read more She is not my biological daughter, or even a daughter by marriage or adoption. I met her when she was only 18 months old, back when my wife and I volunteered together in the youth classrooms at church. She was a shy little miss, but seemed extremely comfortable with me and my wife. She would sit with me nearly the entire service, from the time her mother dropped her off to the time she'd return to pick her up, sometimes not wanting to leave us. One day our pastor asked the men of the church to voluntarily provide childcare for the single mothers during a special Saturday conference just for them. Without hesitation I asked her mother to leave her in my care. That lead to other times where my wife and I would keep her for an entire weekend so her mother could run errands and have some 'me' time to herself. Soon month passed, then years as she joined us on vacations, cook-outs, holiday dinners and any family event, because she was family. If you have paid attention, she is in many of my yelp photo's. At some point she began to call ME dad, and my sons her brothers. So it was truly an honor when she asked me to walk her down the aisle today, 22 years after we first met. [ THE VENUE ] Located on the property of a 118-year-old cotton mill where raw cotton was spun into fabric for over a century, the venues encompass three old cotton warehouses. There are two Event Halls: The Kennedy and The Jackson, both of which come with the use of a bridal suite and groom's room on the day of the event. Each venue can accommodate up to 250 people with a dance floor, and 300 without and includes 72" round tables & black padded chiavari chairs. The space itself has beautiful whitewashed exposed brick, wood ceilings, stained concrete floors and cute touches throughout such as a vintage looking piano, rope lighting, antiqued furniture, chandeliers, see-thru cream-colored drapes, greenery, outdoor patio and high-top tables. [ THE EXPERIENCE ] Pre-wedding activities included pics all around the grounds of this historic warehouse. Many areas were once covered warehouse rooms, but are now just brick shells of the past. Great for an industrial urban backdrop! The wedding was held in the Jackson Room, where one half of the room is used for the ceremony while the other half holds circular tables to be used for the reception afterwards. After the ceremony was over, guests were invited outside for appetizers under the covered canopy that was once the loading dock for the cotton mill. It was perfect for a beautiful sunny day, but not sure how well this would work during a Georgia thunderstorm. This gave the Venue team time to reset the room for the reception and put all the tables in place. My daughter's wedding included 150 guests, and that left ample elbow room for all in attendance. Those brides looking for a more simplistic wedding venue loaded with historic charm will find The Cotton Mill Event Venue delightful. [ FINAL THOUGHTS ] I share reviews revealing personal parts of my life in hopes my transparency can be a lesson for someone facing a similar situation. Simply put, when you see the opportunity to be a positive influence in someone's life... DO IT!!! I know it can be scary. Self-doubt and thoughts of inadequateness can overrun your mind. If I'm being honest, 20 something years ago I was not immediately open to the idea of being a father figure to children outside of my biological's. I feared not being good enough, but faith is not in knowing the endgame. Faith is believing the endgame will turn out well, despite our personal handicaps. It was a slow process for me, one I wish I would have embraced quicker, more eagerly and done better at fulfilling. Still, I'm so glad I took a leap anyway. I didn't know it would be one of the great joys of my life to have known this little miss, whom today became a Missus. She, and her new husband are two of thee best products of this generation and I am thankful to have been a part of her life's journey and now his. You should have heard their vows. They brought everyone to tears with their heartfelt dedication to one another and God. Thank you Cotton Mill! You don't know it yet, but the event you hosted today was for a young couple destined to leave a glorious mark on the world... just you wait and see. 2019/70

After searching for a reputable DJ we came up on DJ Triplicate. DJ Triplicate stepped up to the plate and made our dreams come true! Prior to the wedding we spoke multiple times and even did a phone consultation to make sure everything would meet our expectations on the big day. On the big day DJ Triplicate arrived early and assembled all of his equipment, he carried through our plans and worked to make sure that everything we wanted music wise was covered. This included silly requests for parent/child dances and much more. DJ Triplicate really showed his skills when he went off the vibes of the party and got everybody involved in the festivities. We loved DJ Triplicate so much that we gladly paid for him to stay longer then planned. He is your man, make the appointment and speak with him, you will not be disappointed!

People loved the food just like I hoped they would. My family loves food so I did not want to have anything so-so at the wedding, but it was all fantastic. I really want to know the secret to their ham! They also put together a get away picnic basket with a bottle of champagne for my groom and me to enjoy in our hotel room in Atlanta, near the airport.
