Wade Chic

Lindsey and Nick were married on October 2nd, 2010 at the Citadel Beach House on Isle of Palms where a reception immediately followed. I loved this couple. Lindsey was such a great Bride to work with. She had so many chic, fabulous ideas for her wedding day. A few of my favorite things about Lindsey and Nick's big day were ...

Their families - I loved their families. They were all such great, fun, easy going people. Everyone was so excited for Lindsey and Nick and just really enjoyed themselves and mainly being together. Lindsey's Dad even brought lunch to the venue for everyone setting up. Isn't that so nice?

The decor - Lindsey brought the best decor items: candles, coral, burplap and so much more. It all came together beautifully. I can only imagine how beautiful Lindsey and Nick's home is. Lindsey has such a great eye for decor. A few days before the wedding, she and I were at Out of Hand finalizing a few of the rental details and she saw this table - a table that has never been rented before - and ended up convincing Lisa, the owner, to rent out the table for her to use as her candy table at the reception. The table was perfect.

The way Lindsey and Nick let loose and had a great time - they laughed and danced and had the time of their lives. I love seeing couples really step back and enjoy their day.

Such a fun day had by Lindsey and Nick, their families and friends, and event their vendors!

A huge thanks to some of my favorites OOH! Events, Cru Catering, Liz Duren Photography, Hart to Heart Media, Absolutely Charleston and new friends Sugar Bakeshop, Classical Charleston, and the Chris Crosby Band, for helping to make the day such a success. You can see more of Lindsey and Nick and Liz's beautiful work on our Facebook page as well.

Happy Planning!

Janine and Jack tie the knot!

Janine and Jack were married at First Baptist Church Downtown on Saturday, September 25, 2010. A Lowcountry reception immediately followed at the Creek Club at I'on. The guests dined on lobster macaroni and cheese and other delicious treats that were provided by Jacob's Kitchen and Wedding Cakes by Jim Smeal. The guests were entertained by Voices of Deliverance after the ceremony and then Two Three Ways at the reception as they enjoyed the beautiful decor that was done by OOH! Events. And of course ... the talented Tara and Rod of Red Shutter Studio who were nice enough to share the photos with me. Tara won me over with her salsa dancing skills. So fun! This really was a beautiful event for a beautiful couple. Janine and Jack - I wish you a lifetime of love, fun, and happiness. Keep in touch!

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!
