Beaufort or Bust




Lauren and Jonathan were married on August 21, 2010. Their ceremony was scheduled to take place at the Old Sheldon Ruins but God had other plans for their big day. The skies opened and didn't close so the ceremony was quickly moved to the reception site, Beaufort's waterfront pavilion. While the Church would have made a beautiful backdrop, the lawn of the pavilion ended up being the perfect setting for Lauren and Jonathan's sunset ceremony. I also have to mention how calm and collected the Groom and especially the Bride stayed through the switch. They were rock stars. After the ceremony, the guests walked a few feet over to the reception site where they escaped the heat with lots of delicious southern style tea and lemonade along with of course plenty of adult beverages as well. Guests were wet and it was hot but it didn't stop this crowd from having fun. DJ Mike from Jay Maxwell's Music by Request kept the dance floor packed all night. Matt and Sol of Del Sol Photography captured it all and were nice enough to share the photos with me. Matt is actually the Bride's cousin so it was a true family affair. I really enjoyed working with Lauren and her fabulous Mom, Danae, throughout the planning process. This is a beautiful family that I am so fortunate to have met. Congratulations Lauren and Jonathan Cooke!

Happy Planning to the rest of you!
