What a beautiful thing marriage is. It's a commitment to love another soul in the deepest way - forever and completely unconditionally. Danielle and Mike declared that commitment of lifelong love before their family and friends on a glorious spring afternoon at St John Beloved Catholic Church. With a beautiful wedding reception at The Harbour Club in Downtown Charleston, SC.

Danielle + Mike // Harbour Club Wedding // Charleston, SC

"I swear I couldn't love you more than I do right now, and yet I know I will tomorrow."
- Leo Christopher

Their wedding decor was Kate Spade inspired - classic, with pops of bright florals all around. And while the decor was cheery and beautiful, Danielle put her own personal touches to her wedding day. Instead of a cake, Danielle and Mike decided to have homemade cookies for their guests, which was very special, particularly to Danielle, as it held a lot of sentiment. Danielle's great grandmother was always known for her Christmas cookies, and since she passed away recently, Danielle wanted to honor her great granny in this way on her wedding day. She also wore a piece of jewelry on her wedding day that belonged to her great grandmother. What a sweet way to honor her memory on their most special day!

Along with the DIY details that Danielle put together, they also incorporated several of their local Etsy vendors into their wedding details, such as the bridesmaids' jewelry, the can koozies and the thumbprint tree that served as their guest book.

Everyone danced, made smores (I mean, what could be better than a smores table at your reception?!), laughed and celebrated this new union of love. And as the sun set, we headed to the roof, where we took some time to snap some romantic pictures, basking in the breathtaking sunset.

Congratulations Danielle & Mike! May your love grow deeper with each day that God gives you!

Christy & Jamie {High Cotton Wedding | Charleston SC}

Christy and Jamie were married in the private courtyard of High Cotton Restaurant in downtown Charleston, with their reception to follow in the French Quarter Room. Before I delve into the details of their sweet, intimate wedding, can I first say that I loved working with these guys?! From the moment I met them, I could tell they were star-struck in love. We roamed around downtown, and I'm not sure who had more fun. I mean, what photographer doesn't love it when the bride says, "Can we run out and take a photo in the middle of the road?" Christy was very involved in planning the details of this gorgeous wedding, and with the help of her mother and aunt, they made the whole day a success. Christy's flowers had a wildflower inspiration feel with a pop of bright pink, and both Christy and Jamie's children carried classic Charleston sweetgrass flowers, wrapped in burlap. How amazing is their cake? Can you believe it was made by one of Christy's friends? I know, my jaw dropped as well when I learned that fact. Have fun swooning over these photos!

Thank you to Christy and Jamie for allowing me to participate in the beauty of your big day! All the best to the both of you as you begin your lives together in marriage!
