This springtime affair took place at a sweet little spot that’s a little off the beaten path. A private yacht club about half an hour outside of Charleston, but it’s position at the tip of an island means the backdrop is nothing but water views. It’s a very old and rustic building, so we always have lots to consider when making it wedding ready. The area was special to the bride, having grown up spending summers there. Not only that, but this sweet bride interned for us and I’ve known her family for years, so we couldn’t wait to make her day extra lovely.  Thank you to Corbin Gurkin for these photos.

It’s no secret that Lowndes Grove Plantation is one of the most sought after venues in Charleston. And for good reason, the scenery is so beautiful and the proximity to all of the downtown spots make it a bride’s dream. For this blush and bashful pink wedding, we created a custom monogram for Jordan & Jason incorporating their “J”.The monogram allowed for some pretty fun details and the couple was just so wonderful that we wanted everything perfect for them! Thank you to Liz Banfield for all of the photos, and Lettered Olive for the lovely printed items.

If anyone has had the pleasure of visiting the Montage Palmetto Bluff, you have experienced first hand that there is another scene stealing location here in the Lowcountry. Smaller and quietly off the beaten path, the scenery and experience here is top notch and make it a perfect spot for intimate weddings. Naturally, we are thrilled when we are asked to design events here, it always makes for some lovely photos…
