Excited to share that Caroline & Bobby’s Kiawah Island wedding is featured in Charleston Weddings!! Their day drew from the New York restaurants where they fell in love, reimagined for the lowcountry by the amazing . It was a truly special day! The evening included an elegant dinner-party on the River Course, with watercolor stationery, calligraphed matchboxes doing double duty as es**rt cards, and a “Sweet Caroline” moment on the dance floor that Bobby snuck onto the setlist himself. Such an unforgettable night!

Thank you for the feature. This is the kind of day I love photographing, and it’s so fun to see it celebrated 💕

One of my favorite moments of any wedding day (and one I wish more couples would consider doing!)

The ceremony is over, everyone is smiling, and the excitement is impossible to miss. Julia and Sam’s ribbon wand ceremony exit in Highlands was pure joy. ❤️

A garden, reimagined indoors. Every bloom, every stem, every color invited guests into Sami and Drew’s celebration before the first toast was poured.

The Swan House fountain has always been iconic, but framed with flourishing florals, it became the perfect backdrop for Sami and Drew’s first portraits as husband and wife.

The sweetheart table felt like it had grown straight out of the garden—layered florals below, candlelight above, and patterned linens tying every color together.

A bouquet filled with movement, texture, and every shade that made this day feel like spring in full bloom.

Butterflies, cascading blooms, and just enough whimsy. Every detail of the cake felt like a continuation of the garden.

The flowers didn’t stop at the cake—they surrounded it, making the entire display feel like its own little landscape.

Even the seating chart became part of the floral story, welcoming guests with champagne, butterflies, and blooms from floor to ceiling.

One last surprise overhead—an upside-down garden floating above the dance floor as Sami and Drew ran into the best part of the night.

Elated to see mccall johnson and Walker Johnson featured on Style Me Pretty 🙌

A palette of soft blues mixed with pinks, yellows and purples brought the European countryside to the South - absolute perfection by the Drake Social Events team. Above all of that, M&W’s love for each other was the glue that held everything together and created an unforgettable night. This party did 👏 not 👏 quit 👏

So happy to relive this day again and again!
