Ashley + Scott {Heritage Plantation Wedding}

Pin It

Pawleys Island is a hidden gem on the Lowcountry coast. It’s a short drive from Myrtle Beach and just North of Charleston. It’s home to the stately Heritage Plantation, a beautiful wedding venue situated between the Atlantic coast and the laid back Waccamaw River and it was the perfect spot for Ashley + Scott’s Fall affair. Ashley went with a classic neutral color palette that florist, Tommy Newman, translated into gorgeous ceremony and reception decor. The Plantation was a picturesque backdrop for their dreamy day and our fab friends at Richard Ellis Photography were on hand to capture every single moment. After a touching ceremony, the guests were treated to dazzling evening under the Spanish moss with a cool Lowcountry breeze.

Alright, who’s up for a gorgeous Lowcountry engagement session at the beach?! This girl! Our lack of winter has me yearning for Summertime and long days relaxing on Folly Beach, so what better way to satisfy my craving (and probably yours, too!) than with an easy-going session along the coast! Folly is a casual, coastal town just minutes from Downtown Charleston and is the perfect spot for bride’s looking for a laid back beach wedding. Blessed with a perfect day by the water, the talented Chi Photography captured Haley + Robert in their element with stunning oceanside views. Beautiful!

Adrienne + Sean {Edisto Beach Wedding}

Hope everyone enjoyed a rainy weekend with friends at the Charleston Wine + Food Festival! We’re back at this week with a laid back, oceanside wedding on Edisto Beach, South Carolina from the talented Julie Napear Photography. Edisto is a beautiful coastal jewel that is about an hour from Charleston and two from Hilton Head…it’s the perfect location for a lowkey affair with some seriously breathtaking views. The couple, Adrienne + Sean, met while living in the Bay Area and decided a Lowcountry wedding was a must for their August nuptials. They wanted something simple and touching and that’s exactly what they got! Their ceremony was held on the beach with standing room only before they headed back inside for an evening of dancing.

To put it simply, T. G. I. F. The Lowcountry’s in for quite the weekend; Spring is unofficially here, the temperature’s clocking in around 80 and the Charleston Food + Wine Festival has set up shop in Marion Square…is it 5 o’clock yet? I can barely contain my excitement. To get this party started, we’re riding off into the weekend with this smashing engagement session from the talented Emily Horton Photography. The couple, Megan + Steve, reside in Washington D.C. but couldn’t think of a better place to have their wedding then beautiful Charleston, South Carolina. They spent the perfect Fall afternoon gallivanting around the Battery and Waterfront Park to capture some gorgeous, sun-drenched images.
