This secluded elopement was held at a private estate in Charleston, South Carolina. The glowing bride wore an off the shoulder scoop front gown with a side slit and button back with a chapel train while her brunette locks were styled in soft flowing curls. Strappy white shoes and a timeless pearl necklace and bracelet completed her look. The groom waited on the porch in his tan suit for an emotion-filled first look portrait session with the bride to be. The bride carried a colorful floral bouquet down the outdoor aisle for an intimate ceremony. White chairs were on each side for guests to watch the bride and groom exchange vows beneath a greenery decorated arch in front of the fountain. After the heartfelt ceremony, guests then headed to the house for the reception. We utilized the immaculate landscaping while capturing bridal portraits of the newlyweds. Outdoor and indoor seating allowed guests to mingle and eat as desired. Globe lighting was strung outdoors to illuminate the night as everyone celebrated.
