Kirk Thomas and Caroline Shea got engaged in August 2019. Shea, then 23, wanted the wedding to be outdoors on her grandfather’s 2,500‑acre lakefront property outside Birmingham, Ala. She envisioned an elaborate, nature-inspired affair for 400 people, and she hired a wedding planner and design team to make it happen.
When you have a wedding planner and a design team—and a grandpa who’s a commercial contractor—you don’t just buy a few backyard barbecue tents at Home Depot. You hire a company such as Skyline Tent Co. to transport guests to a world that pushes the boundaries of exactly what it means to be outdoors.
