Revolution Mill Greensboro Wedding: Blake + Cameron

 

Blake and Cameron were married on a beautiful, sunny Summer day in August, at The Colonnade at Revolution Mill in Greensboro. Hillary Muelleck captured the day with gorgeous photos.

The Venue

Like other couples we’ve heard from, the historic charm of The Colonnade was a big draw for Blake and Cameron. That, combined with our friendly staff and ease of booking made us the obvious choice for this couple.

WHAT DREW YOU TO THE COLONNADE?

“We were really drawn to this venue because it was so unique and different from other venues we had looked at. I was really set on having an outdoor ceremony with lots of greenery and my husband was interested in the industrial setting of the indoor space, so the venue was a perfect blend of the two. We loved that the venue also had a ton of space as well as two levels for our guests to walk around and spread out in, especially during COVID times.”

 
 
 
 

The Ceremony

The couple chose to have an outdoor ceremony to take full advantage of the North Carolina sunshine and the surrounding greenery at The Colonnade. The neutral colors, touches of greenery and gold came together and helped to create Cameron and Blake’s wedding vision of timeless, elegant and classic.

“Three words I used to describe to our planner when we first met with her about our wedding vision were timeless, elegant, and classic. I wanted our wedding to reflect those qualities and we planned most of our details around them. I loved our decor that mixed neutrals with hints of gold and greenery accents throughout the venue that tied in perfectly with the modern industrial feel of the reception. More importantly, I think the venue was stunning enough on it's own that it didn't need a ton of decor to make it really stand out. I think we managed to create the perfect setting of understated elegance that really allowed for the focus to be on the joy and love Cameron and I have for each other on our special day and spending it with our family and friends.”

The Reception

The reception continued with the couple’s desired aesthetic with gold touches, neutral colors of cream and white, candles, hints of greenery and edison lights.

WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE ARCHITECTURAL FEATURE OF THE COLONNADE?

“My favorite feature of the Colonnade was having so many large windows surrounding the venue that allowed for natural light to come in the reception space. They were a great photo backdrop and also added an elegant touch to the industrial setting.”
