Colorful florals at private estate wedding
When Olivia and Dennis decided to tie the knot, they envisioned a wedding that was as vibrant and enchanting as their love for each other. Set against the stunning backdrop of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, their special day unfolded like a scene from a fairytale, surrounded by the lush beauty of florals and coastal charm.
The Setting
Murrells Inlet, celebrated for its natural beauty and Southern allure, provided the perfect canvas for Olivia and Dennis’s wedding. The ceremony took place at Belin United Methodist Church, renowned as one of the most beautiful churches in South Carolina. Its elegant interior and serene ambiance set the stage for a heartfelt and timeless ceremony.
For their reception, the couple chose a private estate on the marsh front, where Dennis had spent his childhood. This picturesque setting, with its sweeping views of the marsh and tranquil atmosphere, offered an idyllic location for their celebration.
A Floral Wonderland
The reception was a floral wonderland that perfectly reflected Olivia’s love for flowers and garden-inpires Upon arrival, guests were greeted by a vibrant display of colors that brought the garden to life. Hues of pink, blue, peach, lavender, and sunny yellow created a stunning contrast against the serene marsh backdrop, adding a touch of whimsy and elegance to the evening.
A floral chandelier, an exquisite focal point of the reception area, hung above the dining space, creating a magical ambiance. Tables were draped in elegant linens and adorned with lush floral centerpieces that echoed the wedding’s vibrant color scheme. The soft glow of bistro lights strung above added to the enchantment, making the evening feel warm and inviting.
The Dress and Attire
Olivia’s wedding dress was a vision of romance and grace, perfectly complementing the enchanting setting. Her bouquet was a vibrant explosion of seasonal blooms, capturing the essence of the garden’s natural beauty. Dennis looked dashing in a classic suit, with a boutonnière that featured a small cluster of the same flowers from Olivia’s bouquet, tying their looks together in a cohesive and charming way.
Reception Magic
Dinner was served alfresco, allowing guests to savor a delightful mix of Southern cuisine with a modern twist while enjoying the cool spring evening breeze. The reception’s garden-inspired theme was evident in every detail, from the floral arrangements to the elegant table settings, all contributing to a cohesive and captivating atmosphere.
Personal Touches
