Wedding Shoes

I came across this website today and fell in love with all of their wedding shoes. I am going to go ahead and say it can be your one-stop-shop for wedding shoes. Check it out!

Congratulations to Captain and Lieutenant Ferro!

Allison and James were married on January 23rd at the Citadel's Summerall Chapel. The ceremony took place at 1:00pm on a chilly but beautiful day. The bridesmaids wore floor length olive green dresses while the groomsmen wore a mix of military dress blues and regular black tuxes. The ceremony consisted of a unity candle lighting and excellent music sung by the Citadel's Ms. Nancy Lefter. The bride carried a beautiful bouquet that was created by Out of Hand. Everything was just lovely. After the bride and groom were introduced properly at the chapel with sword bearers and all - their guests from as far as Sweden and Hawaii were transported back to the hotel in white trolleys to get dolled up before the real fun began. The reception followed a few hours later at The Francis Marion Hotel on King Street. There, the guests were entertained by a Spanish musician during cocktail hour before they danced the night away to the ever-so-talented DJ Rob Duren. The Francis Marion served some delicious food for the guests - a pasta station, a salad bar, and so much more. The groom used his military sword (yes, he checked it on the plane) to cut into their yummy cake that was done by The Cake Stand, my favorite. A few really nice toasts were given before an awesome slide show was played to give all of us a little insight into how Allison and James came to be Mr. and Mrs. Ferro. The night ended with Allison and James joining their guests at the Swamp Fox Bar where the fun continued ... well until the bartender said last call. All in all a wonderful event for a wonderful couple. Thank you for letting Kristen and I share in your special day.

Here are a few shots from one of the three events that we did this summer at Alhambra Hall. Erin and Phil were married on a warm but gorgeous day in July. Following the ceremony, guests dined on eats by Good Food Catering before they headed upstairs and danced and danced to Plane Jane. Some highlights of this event were the bride's brother's Christopher Walken impression, the stunning sunset, and the packed dance floor! It was such a fun reception! A big thank you to Liz Duren for capturing all of the wonderful memories for us.

Smythe Park Chic

Adrian and Jody were married on September 19th at the beautiful Smythe Park on Daniel Island. The weather was perfect and the view was spectacular! Adrain and Jody live just a few houses down from the park which made things very convenient. Cru Catering served up the yummiest food while guests danced the night away with the Ravenel Bridge as their backdrop. A beautiful night for a beautiful couple - so happy we could be a part of it!
