June 27, 2009


Andrea & Bill
2nd Presbyterian
The Wickliffe House

June 27 started out as a hot and sunny day! Andrea and Bill were able to get pictures outside before the ceremony and made it to the church before the bottom fell out. As most of you know, when it rains in Charleston, it POURS!

The guests were slightly delayed getting to the Wickliffe House navigating the flooded roads in Charleston. We were all nervous awaiting the Bride's arrival. Much to our relief, Andrea and Bill were not put out by the weather. Sure, it was not ideal but they were married, their closest friends and family were with them to celebrate, and that is exactly what they did!

This was a dancing crowd! Due to the rain (and the flooded parking lot tent) space was limited inside for dancing. We ended up moving some tables once people were finished eating to give them some space to spread out.
















At the end of the night we were able to get the brave outside (in the pouring rain) to see them off with sparklers!

Krissy & Jordan
Redeemer Presbyterian Church
The Rice Mill

Krissy and Jordan were one of our younger couples this year. The flowers that came in were amazing this week!

One of my favorite moments with the two was during the tasting trying all of the great food they were planning to serve and really getting excited about the wedding. There is usually a moment where it all kicks in, and that was it!

The day of the wedding was a hot one in Charleston and we were all thankful for the indoor venue choices! Once they got to the Rice Mill they danced the whole time, barely pausing to cut the cake! What a great event!

Jennifer & Travis
William Aiken House
Kim Graham Photography
Elaine's Events



Jennifer and Travis are two of a kind! Both from California, they had a very specific idea in mind when they decided to get married. A Shakespearen Renaissance themed wedding. Complete with a Herald to announce dinner, dancing and so forth. Also we had a strolling musical group and a Jester.

Now for those of you familiar with LWSE, you know this is something a little out of the realm of things we generally do. However, Jennifer and Travis were able to blend their ideas and style with ours to make a beautiful memorable event.

Due to rain, the ceremony was in the downstairs ballroom and then guests went upstairs for a seated dinner upstairs in the ballroom with some more rustic choices. We served Mushroom Truffle Soup (which is to die for!) as the first course follow by a choice of a stuffed pork tenderloin, roasted pheasant, lamb chops or spare rib.

Travis brought in all the wine that was served along with the glassware. Each person got to take home a champagne flute as a gift. He also brought in water glasses and special goblets for the wedding party.

The piping on the cake matched the invitation paper was safely delivered in the rain by Tony and Elaine!

The wedding was an overall success thanks to the staff at The William Aiken House along with all of our other fabulous vendors!

Erin and Rodger
St. Luke's Chapel
The Mills House

Erin and Rodger were so much fun to work with! They were both in the midst of their residency at MUSC so time was short. We had to be creative with our meetings, Erin ran over to our old office many times during her lunch break to choose stationary and linen samples.

The day of the wedding was absolutely gorgeous. Erin and Rodger never showed any sign of stress or anxiety all day. We got to have some fun with the decor as well. We used pieces of our West Elm sofas, as well as some custom covered ottomans and bare branch trees. The cake, by The Cake Stand was a grand display with the help of IES lighting!
