Engagement : I first met Kevin as he was plotting his proposal. It was pretty epic. A sail was dropped, with ‘Marry me, Liz’ that Kevin had painted at just the right time, in the right place for Kevin to drop to one knee. Then we went on an impromptu engagement session around downtown Charleston. So getting asked to document their Folly Beach wedding was a bonus.
Getting Ready : It was one of those hazy days where the light was continuously soft (aka photographers dream). They found a perfect house on Folly and made it a family, closest friends and fur family affair. The bridesmaids and groomsmen all got ready on site. The groom and groomsmen sported starfish boutonnieres while their pup was dapper in his bow-tie.
Ceremony : They had a simple, bare-foot beach ceremony. The couple utilized the boardwalk as their aisle down to the wooden arbor with minimalist draping. Their color palette reflected the overcast beach tones of greys, whites and cornflower blues.
Reception : The reception under the house’s enclosed first floor was fun and low-key with delicious Lewis bbq and fun-loving dancing tunes by DJ Jay Shadix. Gianna Lundgren kept the day in flow from getting ready to the last song.
