Gretchen’s Bridesmaids Luncheon at the Trilogy Hotel in Montgomery, Alabama
Before saying “I do,” Gretchen gathered her closest friends for a truly unforgettable bridesmaids luncheon at the Trilogy Hotel in Montgomery, Alabama. Every detail of this morning felt timeless, elegant, and overflowing with Southern charm — the perfect way to celebrate the women who had been by her side through every step of her journey to the altar.
Hosted in one of the Trilogy Hotel’s most breathtaking rooms, sunlight streamed through tall windows, catching the gold accents of the chandeliers and mirrors. The space was warm and timeless — an ideal match for the tea-party theme.
Jackie Frontiero planned the event flawlessly, creating a space that felt both elevated and effortless. The long wooden table was set with vintage china lovingly collected by Tea and Old Roses. It had so much charm and made it feel so classic! Each place setting was a unique work of art, layered with patterned plates, green glassware, and scalloped napkins that tied everything together beautifully.
Dana’s Florals filled the room with lush blooms in pinks, peaches, and soft ivory. From the table arrangements to the delicate flower ice spheres floating in chilled drinks, every floral touch added a sense of romance and whimsy.
Gretchen’s girls enjoyed brunch and laughter, celebrating friendship and all the joyful anticipation of the wedding day ahead. The highlight came with a traditional Southern pull cake, a sweet custom where each bridesmaid pulls a ribbon to reveal a hidden charm — a cherished symbol of luck, love, and connection. If you’ve never seen it before, it’s truly one of our favorite traditions! It’s so fun for your girls to get a surprise and feel included in such a unique way.
From start to finish, Gretchen’s luncheon was a beautiful reflection of her chic style and her hosting heart. Every detail, from the Trilogy Hotel’s gracious hospitality to the lovingly designed tablescape, came together to create a morning no one will soon forget.
Blessings,
Katie & Alec
