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.
