Pepper Plantation

Monday, February 9th, 2009

This past weekend the weather turned warm just in time for our wedding at Charleston’s most gorgeous new event venue, Pepper Plantation:

The exposed beams, concrete floors and huge mantles screamed “Ralph Lauren” to me- it was an understated kind of chic:

   

The bride loved an eggplant and green dot overlay we had and really was drawn to the purples… we used various shades from aubergine to smoky lavendar and accented with rich wood tones to highlight the barn-inspired Pavilion.

LOVE these linens– they didn’t compete with the casual-ness of the space yet somehow dressed it up…

The “dot” theme came down even to the vases on the cocktail tables…

And all the printed materials

And the cake was stunning, designed by Jim Smeal.

Everyone flocked to the tent out back- here’s to 70-degree weather in February- cheers!

Brunch in the Garden

Sunday, November 2nd, 2008

Alli and Mark came all the way from Brooklyn to have the Southern garden wedding they craved…

The October wedding was painted purple– with accents of orange to add an autumnal touch. Moss natural elements like bittersweet vine and birds nest added a bit of whimsy for this free-spirited and laid back bride.

The torrential rain on Friday cleared up just in time for their 10:30 a.m. ceremony- whew! Streamers of satin ribbon and strands of green dendrobium orchids framed the couple as they bacame husband and wife.

The cupcake “cake” was a huge hit– who knew so many cupcakes could get eated by 60 people at 11:00 am?!

Each detail seemed to fall right into place… the decor was just so pretty in its simplicity. Congrats to Alli and Mark!
