Mid-February weather in Charleston can be pretty dicey. Traditionally, February is the coldest month and it’s usually the slowest month for weddings in town. Lucky for Lauren + Andrew, their mid-February wedding day was UNBELIEVABLE!! Slightly overcast, a light breeze, and 80+ degrees outside… say what?! It’s true. I’m fairly certain that we were all sweating at some point during the day. It was incredible and I’m so happy that they had the BEST wedding day weather you could ask for in February!
Their day started with a sweet First Look, followed by bride + groom portraits in the Ansonborough neighborhood of downtown Charleston. Lauren’s beloved dog and official Mutt of Honor, Murphy, joined them for photos and he was just so handsome in his Crew LaLa bowtie collar. Before long, Lauren + Andrew were saying their vows in a beautiful ceremony officiated by their friend, Lauren. Surrounded only by their immediate families and best friends, they said “I do!” in style in a beautiful intimate elopement orchestrated by the ladies of Pure Luxe Bride. Before heading downtown for dinner, the couple cut their wedding cake and toasted to a life of love and happiness together. It was such an honor to document such an amazing day for Lauren, Andrew, and their families. Here are some of my favorites from their AMAZING wedding day!

Some weddings are more emotional than others and, for Sarah + Logan, this was especially true. After having to postpone their original wedding date abruptly due to a health scare, they said “I do!” just a year later – and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house. They had waited a long time for […]
Lauren + James’ wedding day was one that won’t soon be forgotten. As a nod to their shared love of trying new restaurants, planner + designer extraordinaire, Allison Event Design, created a tented reception space with all of the restaurant-inspired details they love. A statement bar that wowwed guests, a mix of table sizes for […]
Becca + Stephen’s art deco inspired wedding at the American Theatre in downtown Charleston was one for the books!

Sure, pretty details are […]
2025 got off to the very best start with Maggie + Britt! I absolutely ADORE these two and their wedding day was the perfect way to start the new year. Their shared love of the water and all of the natural beauty that the Lowcountry has to offer made the Regatta Inn a no-brainer choice […]
Payton + Connor’s rainy celebration at Lowndes Grove was the PERFECT way to close out the 2024 wedding season. When I first spoke with Payton, she told me that she envisioned a colorful wedding day – despite being married in late December. I LOVE that she went with bright florals and colors because it was […]
Hannah + Matt’s intimate brunch wedding at The Sanctuary on Kiawah was such a special celebration. If there are two things I LOVE, it’s an intimate wedding and brunch!
