April’s Top Instagram Posts



Is there anyone else out there counting down the days until summer officially begins? Well, we still have more than a month to go so before we all get ahead of ourselves, let instead start with counting down Charleston Weddings Instagram’s most double-tapped images from April. From chapels of love, to wedding crashers you can’t help but giggle at (wait until you see this one), to neon and hot pink lounge areas, the feed was most definitely poppin’ last month. Take a peek at our top moments below.

When East Coast (Charleston) meets West Coast (Beverly Hills) … Filling the tent with leather sofas, ritzy crystal chandeliers, and gauzy drapery in vivid hues was a lovely departure from the usual “blush and bashful” trappings, said @gregoryblakesamsevents of Taylor and Bennett’s posh palm-patterned affair.

Here’s the thing: Charleston’s in the tropics, more or less. And here in the jungle, it rains from time to time, which can put a damper on a portrait sesh out and about if you don’t plan well. The...

Lindsey and José didn’t start off on the right foot (he didn’t do a double-take when he first met her at Boston College, so she gave him the same indifferent treatment, and sparks didn’t fly for...
