Charleston, SC Wedding Venue

Katie & Daniel had a beautiful intimate elopement at the River House along the Ashley River in Charleston, SC! The couple had always dreamt of having an intimate wedding with 15 guests so this venue was the perfect fit for their small guest count.

With close friends, family, and their sweet doggie in attendance, the couple said “I Do” under the oaks with a beautiful ground arbor full of blooms framing them. Having their sweet pooch be a part of the wedding celebration was a must for the couple!

White Wedding Flowers

In addition to a beautifully set tabletop with an abundance of flowers by Petaloso, the ceremony florals were repurposed to the ends of the tables to add an even more lush garden feel! The bride's bouquet was oblong in shape and full of garden roses, majolica spray roses, natural greenery accents and trailing silk ribbon.

Wedding Design

The design for the wedding was a complete surprise to the bride as she put her full trust in our team to create a dreamy ceremony and dinner tablescape.

We pulled inspiration for this design from the floral china dinner plate, with wishbone wooden chairs to create a bloom forward design with the help of Snyder Event Rentals and linens by Nuage.

Having an Intimate Wedding Celebration

Having an intimate celebration doesn't mean you should skimp on things that matter most. For Katie and Daniel, they wanted a beautifully curated tabletop design, gorgeous views and a chef's table style dinner by Patrick Properties.

Strings serenaded in the background as guests dined and enjoyed the gorgeous views. The couple danced their first dance to “Marry Me” by Train and then ended the night by watching the most spectacular sunset glimmer down over the marsh.
