May 14th brought Emily and Andrew and their loved ones to Middleton Place for a beautiful ceremony in the Octagonal Gardens and a reception at the Pavilion. Emily really wanted to carry the natural beauty of Middleton Place inside the Pavilion, and chose a color palate with a variety of greens. Even the cake by Twenty-Six Divine reflected the theme!
The following weekend brought us back to back weddings on Saturday and Sunday, which we made an exception when we met locals Tara and Scott in January, because we really wanted to help them out! They were halfway though the planning process and needed us! They chose Alhambra Hall for their May 22nd wedding, a stunning setting overlooking the Charleston harbor, and they exchanged vows under a large oak tree. The bride and groom wanted a fun, casual atmosphere for their navy and khaki event, so they brought Cornhole and other lawn games to be enjoyed at cocktail hour--what a hit! Miniature adirondack chairs were used as place card holders--SO CUTE!
Mount Pleasant locals Danielle and Darren chose the Citadel Beach House as the venue for their May 21st wedding, and it was a stunning day. The ceremony was on the back lawn under a simple and elegant white arbor, and the ballroom was decorated in neutrals with hints of light turquoise and a touch of soft pink. Darren's family is affiliated with a local seafood restaurant who catered the event, and constructed an ice sculpture raw bar--the focal point of the room, besides the bride of course.
May 29th brought us back to the Citadel Beach House, the venue of choice for Pennsylvanians Tobi and Jeremiah. This fun couple wanted to exchange their vows on the beach, and it was a stunning day for it! They brought the essence of the beach inside using hues of teal and sand, and the bouquets and boutonnieres by First Bloom of Charleston even incorporated sweetgrass roses, grasses, and seashells.
I love the fact that, even though two of our may weddings were at the same venue, the events were totally different. We really encourage our couples to have fun with their choices and to put their personal touches on their BIG DAY!
The events this month were shared with some amazing vendors: Newton Farms Catering, Gourmet Bay Catering, Event Works Rentals, Ascend Entertainment, Twenty-Six Divine, The Cake Stand, Wildflour Pastry, Mix Charleston, Wildflowers, Inc, First Bloom of Charleston, and The Party Music.
Congratulations again to Charleston Celebrations' newest NEWLYWEDS!!
