One of my favorite things that came through 2020’s challenges is the increase in elopements and micro weddings. As much as I love big weddings there is just something so incredible about the intimacy of the small ones. Maddie & Brandon originally planned to have a large wedding in their hometown, but of course with […]
Today is the perfect day to reminisce Francesca & Quentin’s beautiful summer elopement at Saint Mary’s Church in historic downtown Charleston. Francesca & Quentin’s big wedding was sadly postponed due to covid. They decided not to wait another year to get married so they made a last-minute trip down to Charleston to elope. Our typical […]
When it comes to proposals (especially the ones I get to capture!) I am obsessed…
Weddings have looked a little different in 2020, and wedding planning has been an entirely different story. Walking through these times alongside our couples has been a roller coaster – equal parts heartbreak and happiness – but Courtney & Conner’s Charleston wedding was only joy. (They do, however, deserve an award for staying sane through […]
When I stepped onto the property at the William Aiken House in Charleston for Kelly & David’s wedding I had NO idea how special the day was going to be…for so many reasons. We had no idea that our country (and the world) were about face a pandemic, months of lock-downs, and the cancellation & […]
Intimate weddings hold a special place in my heart. (We shared our day with just 30 of our closest friends and family) When Lauren reached out to me and told me about their intimate day in January I couldn’t wait. Under a live oak, with their closest friends… Lauren and Mason said their vows under […]
What’s better than a late summer elopement on the beach?! (add in the closest family members, gorgeous florals, and a pretty couple) Not much, I’d say. Kami and Jake planned the perfect elopement – and literally exactly in time. Exactly one week after their wedding Charleston got hit directly by Hurricane Dorian.
Every wedding and elopement is beautiful, and most are pretty emotional…but Joan and David’s was different. The plan was to come to Hilton Head Island from Washington DC and elope, but about a month before the set date David called me to say they couldn’t make it. Their family had multiple health emergencies, and it […]
Weddings are so personal. There are trends, and “styles”, and Pinterest crazes….but I absolutely LOVE when one of our couples makes their day uniquely their own. I especially love it when everything turns out as gorgeous as Justine & Matt’s. Their entire day was DIY…and it was absolutely perfect. It felt like walking into a […]
I know it sounds a little weird, but I feel like some people are just “our people”. Somehow I’m the luckiest person ever, because Ben and Adora are absolutely “our people”. We actually didn’t meet before their big day, but Adora and I had several phone chats to iron out their plans…and we just connected. […]
