Revolution Mill Greensboro Wedding: Justin & Brittany
From the moment Brittany and Justin toured Revolution Mill in 2021 they knew it was the perfect place to host their Greensboro, NC wedding. Knowing they would have a beautiful space when booking The Colonnade to incorporate everything on their design wish list, they chose their date for June 30, 2022. We truly enjoyed how this couple used each space to show their loved ones a night they’ll never forget, full of great food, amazing music, big laughs and a whole lot of love!
“Once we got to the venue things started to fall into place. Our ceremony was a dream come true. It was an intimate & unplugged moment with the people we love. Our reception was nonstop music, laughs, and a great time. If we could describe our big day in one word it would be magnificent. We even have people still talking about how much fun and love they felt.”
The Venue & Ceremony
Brittany and Justin choose to have their indoor ceremony with our wrought iron railing and decorative chandelier as a backdrop. They added a hexagon arbor decorated with flowing fabric and florals accented with lanterns.
The Reception & Menu
After the ceremony, guests enjoyed a wonderful meal!. It began with cocktail hour in our lower foyer where guests snacked on our freshly-prepared Gourmet Grilled Cheese Sandwiches and our famous Smashed Potato Bar, which the couple proclaimed as their favorite menu item!
The delicious meal continued with a plated dinner of Asian Spinach Salad, Blacked Tilapia with Cajun Cream Sauce, Grilled Flank Steak with Porcini Mushroom Sauce, Steamed Vegetables and Carolina Wild Rice. Dinner was topped off with a beautiful cake with almond and root beer flavors.
Let’s not forget the signature drinks! There was Rosemary Honey Bourbon for Justin and Citrus Lavender Refresher for Brittany.
After dinner and the speeches were complete, it was time to hit the dance floor and they kept it rocking all night long!
When asked what made their day unique: “It would be the genuine and authentic connections we had with our guests and vendors that made our day unique.”
