How I Would Photograph A Wedding Here
A small room in a big hotel works best when you also use the rest of the building. I look for the lobby, a staircase or a window for portraits, and photograph the small room before the guests come in so it looks as good as it felt.
This venue publishes outdoor space, so I would plan around the sun. Look up the sunset for your month first and work back from it. With a small group, twenty quiet minutes outside before sunset are easy to fit in, and they make the photographs couples frame.
A small wedding is a gift for photographs. Everyone fits in the frame, the toasts are personal, and there is time to wander for portraits without leaving guests waiting.
Ask where you will get ready. A bright room with a big window makes the dress, the details and those first quiet minutes look their best, and at a small wedding it is often where the best candid photographs happen.

Plan The Day
A Wedding Day At Bellyard, West Midtown Atlanta, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
Bellyard, West Midtown Atlanta, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel lists outdoor space, so the ceremony time is the one decision that changes every photograph. I like a ceremony that ends a little more than an hour before sunset. The light is softer, guests are not squinting into the sun, and we walk straight from the recessional into portraits while the sky warms up. Bellyard, West Midtown Atlanta, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel does not publish a rain plan, so ask for it in writing and walk the backup room on your tour.
The times below are worked out from the sunset in Atlanta on the 15th of each month, with daylight saving included. Move everything earlier in winter and later in June.

Getting ready photos usually start about two hours before the ceremony, so book hair and makeup to finish thirty minutes before I arrive.
