Travel
Hotel
FORTH Hotel
This is where our reception will be, and where many in the bridal party will be staying. This Hotel has a great rooftop bar called Moonlight (reservation only), a steakhouse, coffee shop and bar, and a Mediterranean restaurant! Discount code is linked!
Hotel
Hotel Clermont
This is Sarah's mom's favorite! Very close by with rich history and a fun rooftop bar!
Hotel
Hyatt Centric Midtown Atlanta
Hotel
Hotel Granada Midtown
This hotel is a ten minute walk to the ceremony and it is a nice boutique feeling option. If you stayed here, you could walk to the ceremony, ride the provided transportation from the ceremony to the reception, and uber back at the end of the night.
Things To Do
*Emerald City Bagels
This is a fun and delicious bagel shop on the Beltline! Self-proclaimed NYC style bagels in Atlanta!
Kinship Butcher & Sundry
We come here often after a morning at Highland Yoga. The breakfast sandwich is amazing and so are the specialty coffee drinks. We came here the morning we got engaged, and this is where Sarah knew things were truly "in motion".
*Little Tart Bakeshop
One of our favorite bakeries! This one has several locations. Our favorite is Georgia Ave in Summerhill or Memorial Dr, but the Krog Street Location is in a food hall that has beltline access! ***
Fishmonger
One of our favorites for casual, but interesting and elevated seafood!
Inner Voice Brewing
We had our first date at this brewery, and now the owners are our next door neighbors! They are opening up their own pizza spot in the building, so you can drive to get a pizza and a beer and check out Decatur Square. There are so many fun spots in Decatur that are worth visiting. The list is getting too long, so I won't link things individually, but if you spent the afternoon in Decatur, other restaurants to check out are Brick Store Pub, Leon's, Chai Pani, Taqueria del Sol, Victory Sandwich Bar, and Kimball House-if you are wanting something a little fancier. There are some parks and pickleball courts close by as well!
*Rina
Very yummy and modern middle eastern food on the Beltline! They have indoor seating and a nice patio. Walking distance to the Forth Hotel and across the beltline from Ponce City Market.
Buteco
For my Brazilian family, I wouldn't say this is the most authentic place in the world, but they have Brazilian coffee and cocktails, pao de queijo, yuca, and a Latin taco truck. Also, one of my very favorite fish tacos in Atlanta.
*Burle's Bar
Named after a Brazilian architect, this chic cocktail bar is connected to a plant shop and couln't be closer to the venue! Just walk up the stairs across the street and you'll be there.
*Superica
A cult classic, this is our favorite Tex-Mex. They even have a Bob Armstrong dip, but years ago had to change the name ;). We recommend the Superita, otherwise known as a Mexican Martini!
*Botiwalla by Chai Pani
This is our favorite restaurant in the food hall of Ponce City Market! It's one of the most affordable places in the food hall with DELICIOUS Indian street food.
*Ponce City Market
Basically across the street from the Forth Hotel, fun shops and restaurants to explore!
*Big Softie
A favorite for soft serve! Only a few flavors at a time, but very fun toppings! This new location is a walk up window right across from he hotel.
Plaza Theatre
Always showing something interesting! Bobby loves this theater. Rocky Horror Picture Show plays every Friday!

FAQs
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
Festive formal evening-wear requested: We welcome matching suits with ties, formal pantsuits, and formal dresses ranging in length from mid calf to floor-length. We encourage you to feel your best, embrace color, florals, and textures, and to dress to impress.
Question
Will any events be outdoors?
Answer
February in Georgia can be unpredictable! Our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception will be indoors.
Question
Guests and Plus ones
Answer
Although we wish we could accommodate, we hope that you will respect the names listed on the invitation. Guests and plus ones will be addressed by name.
Question
Are children welcome?
Answer
All wedding day festivities including the ceremony and reception will be adult only. We appreciate you making arrangements in advance so that you can celebrate with us! If your child is invited to any additional events like the rehearsal dinner, they will be listed on the events' corresponding invitation. Thank you for understanding. If you are coming from out of town, and need childcare in Atlanta, please reach out to us and we will see what we can do to help find someone.
Question
Transportation Questions?
Answer
There will be transportation to and from the FORTH hotel to the ceremony and back for the reception. First bus will leave the hotel at 3:30, so to be safe, we suggest being in the hotel lobby by 3:15 for the first round of buses. Guests that are not staying at the hotel are welcome to self park on site and take the provided transportation to the ceremony and back. The church has a large parking lot as well off of Spring Street, that will accommodate any drivers.
Question
How to address the couple?
Answer
Bobby and Sarah Valentine, of course! It may take some time for Sarah to make the legal changes, so for about a year, this name change will only be a social one.
