Legare Waring House Wedding // Taryn + Andrew

Legare Waring House Wedding // Taryn + Andrew

Charleston is one of the most popular wedding destinations in the country. Every weekend, people travel from near and far to say their "I do's" under the lowcountry's beautiful oaks, draped with moss and drenched in sunshine. Taryn and Andrew picked the perfect destination for their wedding, at the Legare Waring House, and there couldn't have been a more beautiful day. The air was unusually crisp for a May afternoon, and all were in agreement that Taryn and Andrew's big day was stunning in every way.

The couple met in college, and it was fate! To give them some time to reflect on their love for each other in a simple setting, they met under an oak tree, where they had their "First Look", and after the big reveal, they expressed how overjoyed they were that they made the decision to have one. Taryn was excited that they had more time to spend with friends and family throughout the day, and the focus was on being in the moment, rather than rushing to get great shots before we ran out of light. I love when couples decide to have a "First Look" because it not only relieves A LOT of stress for them on their big day, but it also is such a special time of one on one time with the love of your life before you commit publicly to love each other forever. It most certainly is special to have a few private moments to share that bond together.

From the attire to the venue, the simple rustic chic decor and gorgeous greenery to the laid back vibes, it was a southern wedding to remember. The air was filled with sweet melodies, and there were nothing but smiles all around. What a joy it was for me to witness the couple's family and friends that traveled to this beautiful town to witness the most special day of Taryn and Andrew's lives.

Thank you Taryn and Andrew for letting me document your special day. I wish you all the happiness in the world!
