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…

There was an ease to Allyson and Brian’s wedding day that made it such a joy to photograph.

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. For Addison, Kiawah Island has been a beloved part of life since childhood. So when it came time to choose a wedding location, bringing family and friends together on the island where so many […]

Charleston weather likes to keep everyone on their toes, but even by Lowcountry standards, Caroline and Cody’s wedding day was memorable. Rain fell for most of the day – a rarity in Charleston, especially when it seems determined to stick around from morning until ceremony time. Yet through every forecast update, timeline adjustment, and weather-related […]

Some wedding days are beautiful because of the details. Others are beautiful because of the people. Ansley and James’ wedding in Columbia, South Carolina was the rare combination of both.

Maren and Kevin’s wedding at Ford Field + River Club in Savannah was the kind of day that felt effortlessly relaxed from beginning to end.
