Mandy + Daniel’s wedding day was everything a wedding should be – laid back, simple, beautiful, and most of all… FUN!! I love when my couples focus on creating a wedding day that is reflective of their personalities and Mandy + Daniel’s day was definitely that! From Mandy’s whimsical bohemian-inspired dress, to their gorgeous invitation suite, the guys’ succulent boutonnieres, and the bridesmaid’s mix-and-match dresses in various shades of burgundy, red, and pink… everything was coordinated, but not matchy-matchy and it was a JOY to photograph!
Their day started with a sweet First Look in downtown Charleston, followed by bride and groom portraits in the historic district. Their bridal party joined us downtown for photos, then we all headed over to the Rice Mill for their ceremony. Mandy + Daniel said “I do!” in a sweet ceremony officiated by Mandy’s brother. Their personal vows brought everyone to tears… me included!! Their love is so special and it was so evident throughout their ceremony.
After some sunset photos on the water, it was time to party! Mandy + Daniel treated their guests to traditional lowcountry fare and then spent the rest of the night tearing up the dance floor. At the end of the night, they exited through a tunnel of glow sticks. The perfect end to an amazing day! Here are some of my favorites from Mandy + Daniel’s whimsical winter wedding at the Rice Mill…

Hannah and Chandler’s wedding day was the perfect combination of classic Charleston charm and laid-back coastal elegance. With an intimate ceremony downtown followed by a relaxed waterfront celebration on Isle of Palms, their day was filled with thoughtful details, beautiful scenery, and the people who mean the most to them. One of my favorite things […]

Taylor and Hutch’s wedding at the Pavilion at Patriots Point was colorful, stylish, and filled with so much personality. From the unexpected color palette and playful animal-print details to the incredible sailcloth tent overlooking Charleston Harbor, every part of the day felt distinctly them. Their palette mixed rich shades of brown with lilac, chartreuse, soft […]

There’s something incredibly special about celebrating a wedding at home – especially when that home is one you’ve only just begun making your own. Molly and Erik had recently purchased their home on James Island, and instead of planning a large, traditional wedding, they invited their immediate families and closest friends to join them there […]

There was an ease to Allyson and Brian’s wedding day that made it such a joy to photograph. From the moment I arrived at The Ocean Course on Kiawah Island, everything felt relaxed, intentional, and centered on what mattered most: celebrating their marriage with the people they love. No overcomplicated timeline, no unnecessary stress – […]

After three years of being engaged and originally planning a much larger wedding, Allison and Jake decided to take a different path. Instead of a big celebration, they chose an intimate wedding day centered around what mattered most to them: each other and the people they love most. With just 19 guests in attendance – […]

When a place has been woven into your family’s traditions for years, there’s something especially meaningful about beginning your marriage there.
