When WED got a call from a groom named Jake and he began to tell us a little bit about himself, Ellen looked over at me and said, “These are your people, go for it!”
It’s just so true… Jake and Kris and pretty much my peeps insomuch that I find them both to be fascinating and wonderful and doing all of the things I kind of dream about doing in another life– leading a top-notch metal band, starting a non-profit and using their fame to help others instead of build up themselves. And of my gosh, how much these two loved one another. You could see it pretty obviously at their engagement shoot and even more so in the planning and on the wedding day. These two were made to be with one another and they embrace life together so beautifully. Even if you don’t read the rest of this blog, check out Jake and Kris’ work with Heart Support here!
As you can imagine their tastes were spot on with the things I am loving right now– a little bit vintage, a little bit industrial, a little bit rocker and overall romantic and lovely. We did the flowers in house and enlisted top-notch vendors and talent like Boone Hall Plantation, Wedding Cakes by Jim Smeal, Granville’s Catering, Snyder Rentals, OOH Lounge Rentals, and Technical Event Company to create really a hauntingly magical space at Boone Hall.
THANK GOODNESS they also enlisted the help of the amazing, amazing (any hysterical) Tim Willhouby and his gorgeous wife Sarah of TimWill Photography to document the day…. every photo is perfection.
Take a look:
Jake and Kris, we love you guys! We were honored and thrilled to work with you both and can’t wait to keep hearing about the amazing things you’ll do in life together….

Sarah and Andy… I mean, seriously… I don’t know how WED always seems to manage to snag the “cool ones” but we really, really do. We loved planning their I’On Creek Club wedding because they were both so laid back and down-to-earth about every detail. I love it when a bride and groom know what’s important- hanging out with friends and family and creating a fun and comfortable experience for everyone.
Kellie Kano is from Sarah’s home town and we were THRILLED to hear she had already hired her before we even knew we’d be working together because Kellie is one whose work we absolutely admire. And what a fantastic person to have around on your wedding day… it’s no wonder at all that she also became good friends with Sarah and Andy.
Take a look at her blog here for the rundown of her fabulous documentation of the day…
Sarah is also in the (interior) design industry… couldn’t you tell by the sophisticated color palette and, oh, yeah… her RIDICULOUS dress, jewelry and shoes!??!?
There is just nothing wrong with a peony in the spring. And aren’t the colors here so preppy chic?
Sarah, you are gorgeous! Andy, you are such a sweetheart! We wish y’all the best!

Hey there, blog world! We are honored once again to be featured on Wedding Unveiled Blog, a fabulous blog from a fabulous publication.
Ashley Abide was an acquaintance of mine when we started planning her June wedding last year. But both she and Will quickly became such dear friends that by the wedding, we were not only there to work but also as guests who were thrilled to witness their union as husband and wife.
A big thanks to the lovely Kate Thorton for documenting the day!!
Beautiful, huh??
Here’s what Completely Unveiled said about it:
Ashley and Will were married in Charleston, SC in a classic Southern affair photographed byCaptured by Kate Photography. The wonderful team at WED designed the event in a fresh summery palette of soft pink, apricot, green, pale blues and cream. Ashley wore a beautifulAmsale gown with lace bodice and organza skirt, while her bridesmaids wore short flowing chiffon gowns in a brilliant pacific blue. The couple exchanged vows at the gorgeous Cathedral of St. John the Baptist followed by a reception at the historic Mills House Hotel. Cream linens draped over the tables, which were paired with mahogany chiavari chairs creating a contrast to the softness of the tablescape. WED created a mixture of centerpieces from low arrangements of hydrangea and roses to tall tumbling arrangements featuring hydrangea blossoms, roses and strands of dendrobium orchids set in tall silver engraved trumpet vases. White couches add some elegant soft seating that wrapped around a towering centerpiece of branches adorned with strands of hanging crystals. Don’t miss a single detail, including the couple’s incredible piped confection fromWeddings Cakes by Jim Smeal and their getaway rickshaw decorated with a “Just Married,” sign and strands of pale blue ribbon. Enjoy!

Mandy and David were married at the Daniel Island Club in September and it was one of those wedding weekends in which our entire staff didn’t even feel like we were working at all! It was all so fun and relaxed and our vendors were such friends that it *almost* felt like we were guests ourselves.
The groom was cracking us all up and the bride was so laid back that I don’t think that even if anything DID go wrong she would have been thrown off…
And of course, working with the Daniel Island Club, Juliet Elizabeth Photography, Allure Salon, Old South Barber Spa, Studio R Designs, and Snyder Event Rentals made for an easy and relaxed weekend as well.
Take a look at all the fun times!

Ashley is a dear friend of mine and is was SO MUCH FUN to help her with her June 2010 wedding at the Cathedral and Mills House!
What I loved is that Ashley completely trusted our vision for the colors, feel, etc. She would say, “I just can’t see it in my head at all, but I trust you!”
It all started around a gorgeous teal-toned bridesmaids dress that she chose. She really loved fresh, summery colors but wanted to make sure it all meshed well together. We brought in pale pinks, apricots, greens, pale blues and creams and I think the results were beautiful.
Here’s a peak of some of the photos that the lovely and talented Kate Thorton snapped for us that day…
Congrats to you both and I can’t wait to hang out with Mr. and Mrs. Jeter!

You know what, I’m not an inherent girly girl. I grew up between brothers, what can I say??
But there is something so fun and lovely about the feminine details in a wedding from pink roses to a blushing bride.
Jay was SUCH a fun bride and she fully embraced all that was pink. I loved it. Here are just a few of the fun girly girl details:
(Thank you so much Leigh Webber for the beautiful photos!)

One word: LIGHTING!
Here are a few shots from a hunting lodge that we transformed into an uber-romantic, pink-infused evening:
(The cake was lit under the linen, casting an ambient glow that could be seen even through the outside windows)
(The bar and cigar bar were uplit in hot pinks, and the trees across the lake were hilighted in blue. We even added a “full moon” to light up the night…)
(The two main interior rooms were all about “sleek” and “pink.” Custom white carpet and pink, pink, P-I-N-K lighting!)

Oh, my… this wedding. One of our FAVORITES for many reasons…
Does everyone remember “Hurricane Hanna”- the alleged hurricane that was coming through the lowcountry in September 2008 threatening to destroy all of our carefully planned events?
This bride and groom would have none of that. Kate, a boutique owner (see her adorable shop here) and her groom Ben, a Navy SEAL, were scheduled to go overseas the very next week. So the show had to go on!
Thankfully the winds gave away to an absolutely STUNNING wedding full of thoughtful details and charm. And did we mention how fun it was? From the bride and groom’s first dance to “Super Freak” (a surprise to all the guests) to the Polaroid photo set up complete with dress up props galore, we were all kept entertained.
