6/12/2024 0 Comments Katie & HarrisonThe LOVE STORY Katie & Harrison met each other through mutual friends but their first date started with a walk on Sullivan's Island with their dogs. As time went by, they both knew they wanted to spend their lives together. The day came when Harrison told Katie one day that he wanted to take the boat out after work. Katie states, "This wasn't out of the ordinary, so I thought nothing of it." The cruised down Bohicket Creek to stop by Katie's parent's house and docked. When they pulled up, a bunch of people were there and Katie still hadn't a clue what was happening. She had thought the guests were just friends of her parents. When she went to grab the line, it was Harrison's Dad who met her at the dock. Astonished, Katie went to turn around to ask Harrison what was going on, and he was already down on one knee. He proposed right there in front of my family and his family from NC. They were all there waiting. Afterward, Harrison told Katie they were going out to dinner to celebrate her saying "YES". He said they needed to stop by the house first and when they got to the house, 50+ of their closest friends were waiting for them for a surprise engagement party. We asked Katie what the happiest part of her wedding day was and her answer was: "The Happiest part was getting married to my best friend and celebrating our marriage with our loved ones and closest friends." When asked if she could do it all over again, what would she change, if anything: Katie said, "If I could do it all over again, I would try not to get so caught up in too many small details." Katie's advice to all future brides: "My advice to future brides would be to enjoy every second of it? Don't get consumed by perfect instagram and pintrest weddings prior. It's all about YOU and your future husband's day!" Katie states that her favorite part of the florals was that her vision was brought to life! "The arrangements were more beautiful than I imagined they would be, especially the large florals where we exchanged our vows." She goes on to say, "My bouquet was the bridal bouquet of my dreams! Katie and Harrison will continue to reside on James Island, SC VENDORS:

6/12/2024 0 Comments Denae & AlexWhat a beautiful day for a beach wedding in Charleston SC. Alex & Denae chose the gorgeous Wild Dunes Resort to host their wedding celebrations for their Destination Wedding. From their 'welcome party & rehearsal dinner', to their beautiful, informal 'beach ceremony and wedding reception', the couple shared the day with their closest family and friends. Photographer - Christi Porter with @pinnacleweddingsincharleston captured these beautiful images of Denae and Alex. the ceremonyThe receptionAlex & Denae chose beautiful whites, ivories and touches of blush and pale blue for their wedding colors. They also wanted to repurpose as much as they could from the ceremony, to the reception area in order to preserve the flowers longer that day. The sweetheart table was the perfect backdrop to repurpose the arbor florals and they opted for light and airy, free-flowing compote arrangements for the guest tables. A gluten free cake, provided by Wild Dunes was provided for the couple to cut. As Denae works in the medical field, we think these adorable deserts were just the 'medicine' for a happy conclusion after dinner. If you all have not been to Wild Dunes Resort, its worth a visit. This year-round resort features old Charleston Charm just outside of the city, with quaint residences, beautiful beaches, crystal clear pools and never ending fun activities. It is one of our favorites for weddings and special events. The croquet lawns serve as picturesque backdrops for ceremonies and they lead to the adjacent pavilion and sandy beaches. Keepsakes Florist prides itself on our affiliation to some of Charleston's Best Vendors for weddings and Events.
The vendors below made this day a 'magical event' for all.
