When I first spoke to Elizabeth last June, I knew that her wedding day was going to be something special. She spoke about getting married in her hometown of Beaufort SC – first, a sweet ceremony at her local church, followed by a tented waterfront celebration filled with bright colors and palm accents. Elizabeth wanted the day to be relaxed and focused on spending time with their family + friends. She envisioned her bridesmaids to wear bright pink and dreamed of incredible florals throughout the wedding design. It was like she was describing my own dream wedding. Talk about a DREAM client!! I am so thankful she chose me to document this incredible day for her + Patrick because it really was a dream come true.

Their day started with a sweet First Look, followed by portraits around the Rhett House Inn in downtown Beaufort. Group photos with their wedding party + family followed, then everyone was tucked away before the start of the ceremony. Elizabeth + Patrick said “I do!” at St Helena’s Parish, her family’s church – and then everyone headed out to Kate Gleason Park for the reception.
Guests enjoyed cocktails overlooking the water before stations opened – featuring lowcountry fare and a gigantic raw bar. Once the party got underway, Elizabeth + Patrick never left the dance floor – they were by each others’ side the entire evening, dancing + celebrating with their best friends and incredible family. At the end of the night, they exited through a tunnel of cold sparks and hopped into a family friend’s vintage convertible. Such an incredible day! Here are just some of my favorites from Elizabeth + Patrick’s beautiful Beaufort SC wedding…

Charleston weather likes to keep everyone on their toes, but even by Lowcountry standards, Caroline and Cody’s wedding day was memorable.
