Romantic Wedding in the Low Country

Allison & Dominic

Allison and Dominic’s wedding day was the perfect embodiment of romance, elegance, and modern flair. Set in the heart of the Lowcountry at the historic Thomas Bennett House, their early spring celebration came to life with a neutral color palette, lush florals, and sophisticated design elements that seamlessly blended classic charm with modern touches. Every detail was carefully thought out to create a romantic and unforgettable atmosphere for the couple and their guests.

A Garden Ceremony Surrounded by Nature’s Beauty

The ceremony took place in the stunning garden at the Thomas Bennett House, where the couple exchanged vows beneath a lush ground arch filled with white and green florals. The design exuded a sense of timeless elegance, with soft, organic blooms framing the couple as they said “I do.” The florals added just the right amount of romantic whimsy, setting the tone for a day full of beauty and love.

To further enhance the romantic atmosphere, the fountain in the garden became a focal point with a statement floral installation surrounding it. Pillar candles were strategically placed around the fountain, casting a soft, glowing light that added a touch of intimacy to the entire space. It was the perfect setting for an early spring wedding, where nature’s beauty complemented the couple’s vision beautifully.

A Modern Touch to the Seating Display

As guests made their way from the ceremony to the cocktail hour, they were greeted with a custom seating display that tied into the overall modern design. Guests found their seating assignments in sleek black envelopes, elegantly arranged on a modern structure. The contrast of the bold black envelopes against the soft neutrals of the event created a striking visual element, and the modern touch added an air of sophistication to the wedding.

Cocktail Hour with Bold Florals and Fresh Flavors

The cocktail hour was a lively, vibrant affair with bold statement linens and striking florals that made a lasting impression. The design was infused with modern elegance, while the florals provided a fresh, natural contrast. Guests were treated to oyster shuckers, offering a true taste of the Lowcountry, and delicious cocktails that set the stage for the evening ahead. The atmosphere was one of relaxed elegance, as friends and family mingled and enjoyed the beautiful surroundings.

A Dinner to Remember

When it was time for dinner, guests were welcomed into the luxurious dinner tent, where no detail was left overlooked. Luxe velvet linens in neutral tones draped over the tables, creating an opulent yet understated atmosphere. Letterpress dinner menus, carefully crafted with modern typography, added a touch of class and elegance. Sofa seating for the head table allowed for a more relaxed, intimate setting, while the wood tables with statement runners brought a natural, grounded element to the design.

The modern crystal chandeliers that hung above the tables added a glamorous touch, bringing light and sparkle to the space. The combination of these elements created a beautiful balance of rustic and refined, perfectly in tune with Allison and Dominic’s vision. And, as a nod to their love for fresh, local flavors, a fun oyster shell bar provided a unique and interactive experience for guests, offering a delicious addition to the meal.

Dancing and Late-Night Snacks

After a wonderful dinner, the celebration continued on the dance floor. An incredible live band kept the energy high, playing all the couple’s favorite tunes as guests danced the night away. The music, paired with the romantic and modern design of the space, created the perfect atmosphere for celebration.

As the night wore on, guests were treated to a late-night surprise: Chicago dogs, a fun tribute to Dominic’s hometown. It was the perfect way to cap off the evening, offering a nostalgic, heartfelt touch that honored the groom’s roots.
