Everyone knows what a wedding destination Charleston has become, as well as a fashion destination0- and now they are coming together with a new player in the designer arena. We are big big fans of Mason Hosker, whose flagship boutique is now open in Charleston.  I can’t wait to wear a couple of their pieces this week to Charleston Wedding Week.

Mason Hosker is a designer dress label made in New York City’s garment district by southern designer and Charleston resident Danielle Mason Hosker.  Known for its glamorous silhouettes, decadent fabrics and couture craftsmanship, Mason Hosker is sold in boutiques nationwide, online at Rent the Ruway and now at the flagship store in Charleston, South Carolina.

In conjunction with Charleston Wedding Week, their bespoke bridal collection will debut tomorrow during a champagne reception at the store on 17 State Street from 4-6 PM.  They will also be hosting an Emmy of London shoe trunk show.  These haute couture shoes are a favorite of HRH Kate Middleton and sister Pippa.

I see so many of their pieces working for the fashion forward bride looking for something different for Friday night festivities, or debuting their new bauble at an engagement party or celebration.  And, many options for the super chic Mother of the Bride, and Bridal Party.  I mean, scroll all the way down to the red gown with pockets- super fab!

Bridal portrait

photo by Adrienne Page

To me, one of the most lovely and important images for your photographer to capture on your wedding day, is a “portrait” or image of you… Lots of brides opt to do a portrait session prior to the wedding, which does help give you a sense of hair and make up, and flowers and how they work with the dress before the big day. But, there is something magical about the images captured by these photographers of our brides on the actual day, almost as if you can really see the emotion of what’s to come. Sharing some of our favorites today…
