If these 200+ year old walls could talk, they'd tell of stories as varied as the many years they've been standing, and that rich past comes alive in each event it hosts today.

Proper etiquette is traditionally very important in the South, and weddings are no exception. Whether you're part of the bridal party, a wedding guest, or even the bride or groom, addressing these common faux pas will help prepare you for your next wedding event or celebration. We asked the authors of Being Dead Is No Excuse, Somebody Is Going To Die If Lilly Beth Doesn't Catch That Bouquet, and Some Day You'll Thank Me For This, Gayden Metcalfe and Charlotte Hays for their best tips on wedding politeness. The etiquette experts cover topics ranging from the proper protocol for serving beer at the wedding reception to the possibility of leaving someone at the altar. One of Charlotte's biggest pet peeves? Wearing tuxedos to a daytime wedding – unless you're the waiter. Join Gayden & Charlotte as they explain how to be on your best behavior at a wedding. 14 of 14 Savannah Station Katie McGee Photography One look at this historic building, and you'll feel like you've taken a step back in time. Originally constructed as a stable in 1902, Savannah Station has seen many uses in its many years. Our favorite use so far, though, just might be as a hall for Southern wedding celebrations.
