On the same weekend last year, I photographed Mallory’s sister, Stacy’s, wedding at the Gadsden House – and I knew an engagement was on the horizon for Mallory.  One year later, it was Mallory’s turn to say “I do!” to the love of her life, Brian, at the William Aiken House and I am SOOOOO grateful to have been the one they chose to document such an important day!  Now that both Verner daughters are officially married, I’m thinking a yearly anniversary party needs to happen so that we can all come together again to celebrate this amazing family!

Mallory + Brian’s wedding day was incredible.  It started with a sweet First Look and some bride + groom portraits, then we jumped right into bridal party photos since rain was threatening the area all day long.  Lucky for us, it didn’t rain AT ALL… except about 10 minutes before the end of the reception, when the skies opened up and it POURED rain during their sparkler exit!!  It was definitely a fun way to end the evening!  Mallory + Brian chose an amazing color palette for their big day and the florals by Roadside Blooms were perfection!!  Did you happen to see Mallory’s bouquet?!?  HOLY MOLY!!  It was a beast and oh-so-pretty.  Seriously, one of my all-time favorite bouquets!!  Sage green accents were the perfect pop of summer color and I love how they incorporated gemstones + geometric elements into their wedding decor… a sweet nod to Brian’s love of collecting fossils + rocks.  It was the perfect summer celebration, for sure!  Here are some of my favorites from Mallory + Brian’s garden party inspired summer wedding at the William Aiken House in downtown Charleston…
