CARTER & FOXY
PALM CHIC IN AUGUSTA
Augusta, Georgia
Highlight of the Night
We are renowned for our custom bar concepts, and this party’s version was no exception. In a sea of palm-tree-clad tent poles, we dropped in a 48-foot-long bar with a clean 1940s vibe. Lacquered in a crisp white and paneled in cartouche with a “little black eyeliner” for contrast, this boozy perch boasted black wood crests with water-filled glass vials for freshly-cut vibrant green palm fronds and one sleek (and incredibly heavy!) marble top. Salut!

“The truth of the matter is, I’ve always known what I want. I love anything super fresh and did not want a planner to come along and dictate to us, or worse—to “rinse and repeat” with our wedding design. On that first phone call with Calder and Caitlin, I knew straightaway that they were going to hear us and really draw out an extremely personal, intentional, gorgeous party . . . it was all that and more, and people are still talking about it.”
