Chelsea & Dan | Legare Waring House



Just as you fall for your spouse-to-be, you can fall for the place where you’ll say “I do.” Need a little empirical evidence? Ask Kate Perry and Sabine Beaurain of Fabulous Fête about walking Chelsea and Dan across the rolling lawns and past the lagoons surrounding the Legare Waring House. “We could instantly see the connection,” the women say about the couple’s reaction. “It’s hard not to fall in love with the oaks and the beautiful grounds.” Right-o on that one, ladies—the waterfront spot on the Ashley River has all the romance befitting an engagement that kicked off with Dan stashing a bottle engraved with “Chelsea Leigh, will you marry me?” in his beloved’s parents’ wine cellar. When the big celebration rolled around, the pair invited friends and family for an extended wedding weekend that included a “meet and greet” Thursday evening, Friday nuptials and reception, and a Saturday morning brunch send off. See the Big Day images from Lauren Jonas below, and check out that breathtaking floral arrangement at the ceremony. Talk about a one to remember, huh? Congrats to the happy couple!
