Coastal Wedding Engagement by Billie Jo and Jeremy Photography

We are spending this beautiful Fall day preparing skimming through countless Lowcountry submissions to share with you and we think we found one you're really going to love.  We are thrilled to have the opportunity to introduce you to the Charleston-based team of Billie Jo and Jeremy Photography.  This dynamic duo has a style we just can't get enough of and I'm quite certain you'll feel the same way.  The talented photogs had the opportunity to capture their good friends, Lauren and James, for a coastal engagement session that has Lowcountry written all over it!  Lauren and James wanted to do a little something different for their engagement shoot and decided a trip out to the barrier islands would do just the trick.  Even with storms in the forecast and clouds in the sky, they hopped on their boat and headed out to the islands for a memorable afternoon.

Coastal Wedding at the Historic Rice Mill via Joshua Aaron Photography

While we might be taking a little bit of a vacation this week and are FAR away from all things email and social media, we couldn't leave you hanging and deprive you of your daily Lowcountry wedding inspiration.  We'd be terrible wedding bloggers if we did that!  So, we're hooking you up with a beautiful Coastal wedding at the Historic Rice Mill Building designed by the lovely Jacqueline of Sweetgrass Social Event & Design and captured by the talented Joshua Aaron Photography.  Details we're loving: Bride Carrie's dreamy gown, the romantic bouquet Wildflowers Inc. created and how the newlyweds treated their guest to a little Firefly Moonshine!

Rice Mill Building Wedding by Dana Cubbage Photography + Ooh! Events

We're excited to be back from the long holiday weekend so we can share a dose of coastal perfection from the talented Dana Cubbage Weddings.  You may remember awhile back when we had the pleasure of sharing Megan + Jay's Downtown Charleston engagement session.  It was gorgeous, so it won't be any surprise when you lay your eyes on their stunning Rice Mill wedding.  With a gorgeous pastel palette and a meaningful Lowcountry backdrop on the Ashley River, their day couldn't have been more perfect. Jay and Megan love to spend their spare time on the water, and Jay proposed to Megan while on a boating day trip last year, so it was only natural to incorporate the water and boats into their wedding day.   Ooh! Events designed elegant floral arrangements with a nautical navy accent, while A Charleston Event pulled the whole day together.  Fun lounge furniture created a laid back feel to the venue and the Coconut Groove Band kept the dance floor packed all night with a fun selection of island music + oldies. Jay + Megan drove away in a vintage teal 1962 Cadillac Deville from Lowcountry Valet & Shuttle.

Coastal Rice Mill Wedding in Charleston by Shannon Noel Photography

I'm super excited to feature today's Rice Mill Wedding from our friend and wonderful Charleston wedding vendor, Shannon Noel Photography!  I follow Bride Kristin on Twitter and Instagram, and in the months leading up to her big day, I had the pleasure of seeing sneak peeks of what was to come.  So, to see her gorgeous Lowcountry wedding pop up in my inbox, I was over-the-moon to say the least.  Not only did I get to see the adorable couple, Kristin + Matt, enjoy all that Charleston Harbor had to offer, but it was such a joy to see Kristin's inspiration come to life.  The newlyweds enlisted the talents of some of Charleston's finest wedding vendors to deliver a coastal affair that we're sure will take the Pinterest world by storm!

Folly Beach Engagement from Lauren Jonas Photography

As we gear up to celebrate St. Patrick's Day (our favorite holiday!), we thought we'd leave you with the perfect Folly Beach engagement from the talented Lauren Jonas Photography.  Hoping to avoid a rainy Sunday, the couple and their photographer decided to wake up extra early to avoid the summer showers and crowded beaches.  Lucky for us their early morning provided the perfect sunrise to kick off their beach-y morning.

Charleston Engagement {Jennifer + Tyler} Old Pitt Street Bridge

I’m a member of the Charleston Hospitality Social Media Group and at our last meeting at Charleston Place I met the lovely Jennifer!  Fast forward a few weeks later and, thanks to Dana Cubbage Photography, I find her lovely Lowcountry engagement session in my inbox!  While scrolling through the images I immediately realize that these frame-worthy images needed to be shared.  Prepping for your engagement session is always exciting but can be slightly stressful.  You’ll be displaying these beauties throughout your home for years to come, so choosing classic attire and adding your own personal flair is key, and that’s just what Jennifer and Tyler did.  The adorable duo kicked things off in Downtown Charleston before bee lining over to Mount Pleasant to reveling in the beauty that the Old Pitt Street Bridge has to offer.

Nautical Wedding {Sue + Brian} The Boathouse

It's time to dive in to Southern Wedding Sunday and it's only fair to kick things off with this nautical wedding from our friend and Charleston Wedding Vendor Dana Cubbage!  I'm quite certain it will have you daydreaming about the coast...and Sue's stunning gown!  Thanks to Dana for sharing all the dets...

"Sue + Brian chose beautiful Beaufort, North Carolina for their destination wedding and it was the perfect place for them to celebrate their marriage with family + friends. In town early to get comfortable and relax before the big day, Sue + Brian had plenty of time to spend with everyone who traveled into town to celebrate with them. From sailing trips to beach days to a casual BBQ rehearsal dinner on the water, together with their friends + family, Sue + Brian had a week to remember leading up to their big day.

Rain threatened the area, but Mother Nature was surely looking out for them, as there was not a drop of rain on their wedding day. Everything about their day spoke to their amazing relationships with their family + friends. Sue's sister did everyone's hair + makeup as well as made custom necklaces for all of the bridesmaids. Brian's father acted as Best Man, while both of Sue's sisters served as bridesmaids. The relationship between them all was incredible to watch and so much fun to document

Sue's stunning Pronovias wedding gown stole the show and the bridesmaids looked amazing in their navy Monique Lhuillier dresses. Beautiful yellow + white flowers complimented the day's decor and the venue was simply decorated in navy, yellow + white hues. Their ceremony took place in a beautiful old church in Beaufort, which was filled with such charm. After the ceremony, the family + bridal party rode around town on a trolley for photos. It was a really fun time and everyone was thrilled to celebrate Sue + Brian's marriage!

Tear-inducing toasts, emotional parent dances, and the cutting of the cake - which was made by Sue's mom! - all helped round out this family-inspired celebration. It was a beautiful day that proved you don't have to spend a million bucks on decor and frills in order to have an amazing wedding. Family, friends, and genuine love reigned supreme for Sue + Brian, and I'm truly honored to have been chosen to document all of that for them!

Folly Beach {Kelly + Jacob}

I can't begin to tell you how excited I am for the things to come at A Lowcountry Wedding!  We're in the process of bringing on a talented crew of interns to assist in our many project this summer and can't wait to introduce them to each and everyone of our favorite Lowcountry brides and vendors!  We're starting this beautiful Spring week with a lovely Lowcountry engagement session from Whimsey Photography by Cana.  The duo kicked things off in Downtown Charleston before heading out to Folly Beach to enjoy the sunset!

Coastal Wedding Engagement {Krystin + Zeke}

While prepping for next week, I rolled across a gorgeous coastal engagement session from CivicPhotos and I knew the time had come to share it!  Krystin + Zeke spent a relaxed afternoon down by the marina where they moseyed around the pier and enjoyed eachother's company.  For any Lowcountry lady that has a hankering for an engagement session down by the water, then you won't want to miss this one...
