A Storied Past

The Southern Exchange Ballrooms at 200 Peachtree St. NW have a rich history, originating as the Davison & Douglas department store in 1891. Over the years, the building transformed and flourished amidst Atlanta’s evolving business scene and railroads’ influence. It eventually became Davison-Paxon-Stokes, purchased by R.H. Macy in 1927. The redesign of the store was inspired by Macy’s Herald Square flagship store and was helmed by renowned Atlanta architect Philip Shutze. Today, elements of its luxurious past, such as the marble-floored cosmetics and jewelry area, can be seen in the venue’s Whitehall Ballroom.

McCall & Matt’s wedding day was truly a spectacular day.  Despite we provide Atlanta wedding photography, we LOVE having the opportunity to venture outside of the city.  Our day started at the Hiawassee cabins in North Georgia for the getting ready & prep.  We then traveled for The Ridges Resort and Marina Wedding pictures, also in Hiawassee, GA for the first look and creatives.  The last stop of the day found us at The Waterfall Club in Clayton, GA.
