Easter in Charleston is such a lovely time of year, and popular for weddings… This one we loved because it wasn’t your typical pastel palette.  Thank you to Liz Banfield for the pretty photos.

The wedding ceremony was held in the garden of the Confederate Home and College downtown.  Immediately following the ceremony, the youngest guests and flower girls were treated to an egg hunt, also in the garden.

Guests enjoyed a stroll down cobblestone streets to Hibernian Hall for the reception.

Wedding welcome baskets were a grown up take on a traditional Easter basket; once they arrived at Hibernian speciality cocktails in the wedding colors were served; elegantly appointed dining tables filled the upper hall; young guests received fully stocked baskets at the reception offering a little distraction.

Only Jim Smeal can make green icing look as beautiful as this.

Seating cards were hung from our suspended candle chandelier and favors were displayed for guests; guests could enjoy the perfect weather from the seating on the piazza

After a sparkler send off, the bride and groom rode off into the night by way of a Charleston rickshaw.
