Katelyn + Ryan’s beautiful summer Lowndes Grove wedding was one for the books. On this hot summer day, they promised each other forever surrounded by their closest friends and family. Katelyn envisioned a pink + green garden-inspired wedding and Katie Jean Events really delivered! Katelyn’s bridesmaids looked incredible in their bridesmaid dresses of varying styles. The perfect shade of pink for this summer soiree. Katelyn + Ryan decided to forego a First Look and, instead, opted for a First Touch – where they held hands and prayed together before the ceremony. It was such a sweet moment between the two of them and their excitement to finally be married was palpable.
They said “I do” on the side lawn at Lowndes Grove, overlooking the Ashley River. This particular spot isn’t the most popular location for a ceremony at Lowndes – but it worked out well for their beautiful wedding. In the glowy afternoon light, they recited their vows to each other and said “I do” – and recessed out of their ceremony as husband and wife.
After their ceremony, we photographed all of their combined wedding party and family formals – then we spent some time taking portraits around the property. Lowndes Grove is known for its gorgeous sunsets, so of course we had to take full advantage of that… and those are some of my very favorite sunset photos EVER. I mean, it doesn’t get much better than that glow!
Katelyn + Ryan spent the night celebrating and dancing with their guests and it was such a sweet and romantic day. Here are some of my favorites from Katelyn + Ryan’s Lowndes Grove wedding…

When Katie first told me about her wedding day vision – a classic brunch wedding overlooking the water at the iconic Ocean Course on Kiawah Island – I knew it was going to be such a beautiful celebration. There really isn’t anything like a Kiawah Island wedding! A custom Modern Trousseau ball gown, topped with […]
I met up with Dawn + Joey in February for their beautiful engagement session here in Charleston. They brought their two beautiful pups, Willow + Cricket, along for part of the session… and boy, did they have a blast at Hampton Park?!? I am totally OBSESSED with the photos of them walking together (below) because […]
Audra + Rahul’s beautiful traditional Indian wedding in Charleston was definitely one for the books. I absolutely LOVE everything about South Asian/Indian weddings… the colors, the attire, the music, the food, the traditions, the rituals, the family element, the dancing. There really is nothing like it and if I could specialize in shooting only South […]
From the very first time I spoke with Martha Camille, I knew that her Boone Hall wedding was going to be EPIC. I also knew that she was going to be a dream client for me – and she absolutely was! I love all of my couples, but it’s so extra special when someone has […]
When Martha Camille told me that she wanted to recreate her mother’s studio bridal portraits, I’ll admit… I was a little hesitant. I’ve never done studio bridal portraits before and I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to bring her vision to life. As a creative, I love doing things that are outside of […]
2023 was definitely one of the best years yet for my business. I had the honor of working with so many fabulous couples, in so many fabulous locations… including Spain, Italy, and Hawaii! I feel extremely lucky that I was able to experience such a tremendous year of growth and travel. Here are some of […]
