To Monterey Square (bride)

Cathedral steeples bridal frame

The twin spires of the Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist on Lafayette Square are visible from blocks away. Find a vantage point on Abercorn or Harris Street and take a group photo with the bride centred and the steeples behind.

City Market mural moment

The City Market courtyards are full of painted murals on the warehouse walls. Find a colourful mural and take a group photo with the bride centred and the team posed around her.

Chippewa Square is where Forrest Gump sat with his box of chocolates. The original bench is in a museum, but find any bench on the square, sit the bride down with an imaginary box of chocolates and recreate the scene for a photo.

Forsyth fountain bridal pose

The Forsyth Park fountain is Savannah's most photographed landmark. Arrange the team around the fountain with the bride centred in white, the white tiers and palms framing the group.

Hostess City finale for the bride

This is the final challenge! Take an amazing closing group photo where the bride wears a full bachelorette accessory set (sash, veil, the works) with a Savannah backdrop (a square at golden hour, the fountain in low light, the river at sunset). A photo for the wedding slideshow, well done everyone!

Mercer Williams bridal shot

On Monterey Square stands the Mercer Williams House, the main location of "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil". Take a group photo with the bride centred in front of the brick facade, the team around her.

Pralines for the bride

Pop into River Street Sweets or Savannah's Candy Kitchen, watch a praline pour and take a group photo with the bride catching the first bite at the same moment as the team.

Savannah bride lift

The party begins! Take a group photo where the bride is triumphantly lifted up by the team with a Savannah backdrop (an oak canopy, a square bench, a fountain). Higher and louder, this is your opening shot!
