YOU GUYS!!!  I am STILL swooning over Meg + Scott’s incredible wedding at Lowndes Grove… and I’m pretty sure I will be saying that for a long long time.  I can’t say it enough… think outside the box, let your vendors do what they do best, and make design + decor decisions based off of your personality instead of Pinterest.  When you do that, your wedding will be unique, beautiful, and memorable!  Meg + Scott did just that, drawing from Meg’s love of Europe and it’s old world vibe.  An avid traveler, Meg was specifically inspired by French + Tuscan design, but she also wanted to add in some southern flare, since she spent summers in the south as a child.  She envisioned a present day Midsummer Night’s Dream soiree that combined all of the things she loves so much and the end result was absolutely breathtaking.

Meg wore a STUNNING Carol Hannah gown straight off the runway.  She is actually the very first bride to wear the gown off the runway!  It was magical and the PERFECT dress for her whimsical wedding vision.  As a fellow lover of gold, I was just in complete awe of this dress.  It was INCREDIBLE!!!  The bridesmaids wore midnight blue tulle dresses and the groomsmen wore classic midnight blue tuxedos, while Scott wore a modern navy tuxedo – the perfect compliment to Meg’s fabulous gown!  And can we just take a minute to talk about that big, fluffy Coral Charm peony in Meg’s hair?!  Perfection.

After a sweet First Look and photos with their bridal party, Meg + Scott said “I do” in a beautiful waterfront ceremony overlooking the Ashley River.  Guests were treated to a variety of low country fare and the dance floor was packed all night.  Meg + Scott’s first dance was a fun choreographed number that had everyone cheering.  At the end of the night, Meg + Scott exited through a tunnel of sparklers and hopped into their getaway car before heading to their afterparty.  It was an incredible ending to an amazing day.  Here are some of my favorites from Meg + Scott’s Midsummer Night’s Dream-inspired wedding at Lowndes Grove…
