The Matrimony Mock-Up

The Matrimony Mock-Up A desire to reveal renovations to the Horse Stamp Inn barn, along with a new ceremony site, quickly evolved to a community-involved project.

Horse Stamp Inn, Leslie Hand Photography and Veronica Howard Events & Design have teamed up to create a true one of a kind experience for Engaged couples who may need some guidance in their planning journey. What could have been accomplished by way of a styled shoot was actually accomplished by inviting 24 wedding vendors to come together to create one magical evening for 24 couples (& their guest

s), most of them brides-to-be looking for guidance or inspiration on their big day. On March 12, 2018, Horse Stamp Inn hosted its very first Matrimony Mock-Up, while revealing not one but three different wedding styles. The success of the event revealed the Golden Isles' desire to be given the opportunity to sample wedding vendors before making a final decision by seeing them in action. That's why there are three events every year! As sponsors of the event, the Horse Stamp Inn, Veronica Howard Events & Design, Leslie Hand Photography, & the Rose & Vine are committed to finding the best wedding vendors in the area, whether you've ever heard of them or not. Our mission is to provide every couple with as many options as possible while we do all the work. We encourage feedback & constructive criticism to ensure we are providing exactly what our couples & their families want. Finally, we pair our couples with the vendors they have specifically expressed interest in!

Good afternoon! We want to thank you all for your continued support for the Matrimony Mock-Up, its first event and all future events! We are in the process of uploading the photos and absolutely cannot wait to share them ALL with the world! Be on the lookout for an official announcement for the photos - and another surprise underway!

We also wanted to go ahead and address the next event! We had initially planned on having another one in June as these types of events are in high demand! We've had several meetings and decided that, because of the enormous size of the next Matrimony Mock-Up, it is necessary to push it back to later this year. While the wait is unfortunate, please know we have amazing things planned and will be very productive with this time!

If you are a wedding vendor interested in participating in the actual event, please shoot us a message! We will also be opening up exhibit spots for our brides-to-be and their families to meet you and have a chance to talk one-on-one. If you are interested in an exhibit spot, please also shoot us a message! We cannot wait to get all the details solidified and to officially get this next event rolling!

We can't thank you enough for your patience. Of course, we will continue to post with updated announcements, events, and news!

Good afternoon!! We hope you had a wonderful St. Patrick's Day/weekend! We know how hard Mondays can be - especially aft...

The reception set-up for the glam look of the evening. From the beginning, had a very specific vision for this look and we would say she executed it rather flawlessly. Her hand-made crystal chandeliers (yes, with an ā€œsā€, because there were TWO of them) were a favorite among guests and vendors alike. However, this entire room, from floor to ceiling, was nothing short of magical.
