The Journey

Once Upon a Time...

We met when we were living in Los Angeles, yes on a dating app, and realized we had lived on the same block for a year before we ever met each other.

Our first date was at Shatto 39 Lanes, a bowling alley in Koreatown that serves spicy margaritas and black Russians and has surprisingly great chicken tenders. We talked and talked in between rolling gutter balls and it felt pretty great. So great that we went on a second date, a third, a fourth, a hundredth, and within the year we moved in with each other because we couldn’t stand to be apart.

We weren’t perfect for each other at first- Autumn said she would never get a dog, John said he didn’t like musicals. We have been changing each other every day since. We moved across the country together this past year with our dog, two cats, and a shared love of show tunes.

We couldn't be luckier.

The Setting

The Avon Theater

The Avon Theater is part of the Historic Avondale Estates Tudor Village building that was constructed in 1924 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally housing City Hall and the local U.S. Post Office, both were relocated in 1938 to construct the Avon Theater. The theater has a storied history as a live performance venue showcasing music, boxing, wrestling, movies, plays, musicals, dance, and magic shows. But above all else, the Avon Theater is best known for its rich history showcasing live music and as a popular music recording studio space. Artists who have graced the stage at the Avon Theater include Elvis Presley, The Allman Brothers Band, R.E.M., Drivin’ N’ Cryin’, B-52's and many more.

Where to Stay

Hotel Block

Our hotel block is at the Hampton Inn in Downtown Decatur! Everything will be walking distance from here or transportation will be arranged.

The hotel is at a MARTA stop (Atlanta’s newly renovated public transportation) so you’ll be able to take the train from the airport directly to the hotel and get around the city!

If you want to come early or stay later, the rate is still locked at this price — just give them a call and they will honor it. You can book over the phone and mention the Hinze-Steinberg Wedding, or book directly through the link below.
