There is nothing more amazing than the sound of the waves as a back drop to your ceremony.  Not so in love with the sand and shell decor that tends to be par for the course?  Nix it!

For Cheri and Bob, the ocean and colors of the setting sun were some of her faves colors so we deepened them and pumped things up with some rich fabrics to offset the chill in the air on the December 5 big day!

Gorgeous starfish and the Citadel Beach House still made an appearance to give their guests the souvenirs and memories they needed for their trip, of course.  Driftwoods were traded for darker woods like manzanita.

Finally, with a beautiful backdrop, sometimes it’s cool to leave it just as that, so a simple bamboo arbor and moss  and ivy  didn’t block the ocean view.  Naturally, Yoj ordered up the perfect weather!  Hello!  We take care of it all.

Be on the lookout for more details in later blogs including some awesome details from Cru Catering, Ashley Bakery, Super Deluxe, Country & Lace, specialty furniture rentals from Duvall and a serious party crowd

Want a beach wedding but your hopes and dreams are dashed by weather or some AWFUL permitting rule at your fave spot?  Bring the sea inside!

After a beautiful downtown ceremony at St. Luke’s Chapel, Allison and Davis found the perfect blue already covering almost every surface of the Citadel Beach House, so pop in some sand, shells and amazing music, and you’re are set for a party to remember.

My fave pic is Allison’s “do Not trash my dress’” pic.  Thanks for capturing great memories, Kim Graham!

If you love bright, bold color, USE IT!  Use it we did with Jamie’s fave hot pink and turquoise.  The couple wanted to fully enjoy their Charleston wedding beach-style, haveing made the trip from Indianapolis for the big day!  To pull it all together, have your accent color a more pale print.  Accessories in funky clear glass and simple loose arrangements are a must or no arrangements at all to stay away form being too busy.  Jamie and Matt were a fun couple, anyway, but how could you not have a good time with all of the happy color!
