Robert Trent Jones Wedding

robert trent jones weddingSunday morning I drove out to the local Robert Trent Jones clubhouse to check on a table that's on display in the entry.  It was another beautiful day, and someone was setting up for a wedding. 

This is a truely beautiful setting and clubhouse.  I hear the golf course is exceptional as well (I wouldn't know).  The few times I've driven through the courses to the clubhouse I get a distinct Hilton Head feeling - in a good way.  Another wonderful jewel in the Shoals.

Robin Wade
Robin Wade Furniture is a celebration of nature—a melding of a forward thinking commitment to the environment and a quiet, harmonious design aesthetic. From his "slow studio" in North Alabama, award-winning wood artist Robin Wade designs and crafts one-of-a-kind handmade furniture. Years before a piece is ready to enter a client's home or a gallery, the process begins—naturally—with the tree. Sustainably harvested, each specimen of hardwood is flitch sawn into natural-edge wood slabs, debarked by hand with a draw knife, and stacked to dry, usually for years, before the final cure in the kiln. From here, Wade and his team use both hand and power tools to bring Wade's vision to life, and then finish each piece with a hand-rubbed oil blend. Each organic furniture creation by Robin Wade Furniture balances the raw, natural beauty of environmentally, locally sourced hardwoods with minimally invasive, clean lines—a juxtaposition Wade calls both rustic and modern. “I haven’t yet found a better artist than nature,” he says.
