Lowndes Grove Charleston Wedding

Elizabeth and Caleb’s Lowndes Grove wedding was affair full of intentional moments and gorgeous details planned by A Charleston Bride. On the morning of their wedding, I entered the checkered sunroom at Lowndes Grove and began preparing for the festivities. It was a cold, overcast, and windy day, so I bundled up a little extra and set to work. While Elizabeth and her ladies began hair and makeup, I began styling Elizabeth and Caleb’s wedding details. Elizabeth was very intentional with the personal details she selected for her wedding day. Each one told a story, from her personalized stationery to her hand-painted shoes by her cousin Aine Cole Art.

The day carried so many beautiful moments. Guests arrived in pastel-colored buses, and Elizabeth and Caleb had The Carolina Bagpiper greet their guests at the start of the ceremony. When they said “I do,” confetti poppers burst in the air while everyone cheered. Guests were then greeted at cocktail hour with champagne and warm conversation. At the end of the evening, A Town A List brought down the house with an incredible party at the reception!

I’m happy to see Elizabeth and Caleb’s Lowndes Grove wedding featured on A Coastal Bride, the same publication that featured their Charleston engagement session last Spring!

I'm LAURA

welcome to my journal

This is where I love sharing recent weddings and sessions, my travels, and life with my husband, and our three pets. When I'm not capturing a wedding day, I'm often enjoying the outdoors with Garrett, playing with our pups, or finding a new place to call home for the weekend. My passion is telling love stories, and I hope I get to fall in love with telling yours.

let's meet!

THE JOURNAL

North Beach was the perfect location for Nicole and Rob's Tybee Island session. While they played with their pup, Lucy, I simply followed. We ran together on the sand, not worrying for once about dirty hems or windy hair.

Christie and Brian strayed from traditional southern clichés and played into the modern lines and motifs of Fernbank Museum of Natural History in Atlanta throughout their wedding design – from their paper to their florals.

I was honored to be able to capture my second photographer's sweet family for her birthday and Mother’s Day present. We played on the grounds of Meadowlark 1939 and came away with the most lovely photos of her and her family.
