Styled Shoot | The Governor Thomas Bennett House



We admit we have a soft spot for Hannah Alyssa Photography (back when she was just out of school Hannah worked with us at Charleston Weddings), but it’s totally guilt-free because she’s just so darn good! Honestly, having a shutterbug like her makes any bride feel (and look) like a bonafide princess. So. When this autumnal styled shoot came our way, we got really excited to share it with you, because not only was it loaded with gorgeous ideas dreamed up by The Petal Report’s Cayleigh Hopkins, it was also captured in a way that simply uplifts. As for the premise: Fall, one of the most popular times for weddings in the Lowcountry, is all about texture and embracing the colors that Mother Nature gives us during this coziest of seasons. From purple hues to cranberry tones, we brought together a range of flowers and greenery to best represent this time of year,” says Cayleigh. Add in that sweet invitation suite from Hatch Cove Designs and we are admittedly a tad in love. Get ready to pull up your Pinterest boards, brides. Happy scrolling, all!

We searched high and low for a wedding to close out the New Year, and what better pick than Annie and Matt, whose ceremony ended with the officiant (the bride’s brother-in-law, or in this case, we’re...

Here’s a little discussed fact: A great DJ can make (or break) a wedding. And the difference between a first dance that has everyone sighing and posting (instead of cringing) and a party that...

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...
