Lowndes Grove Inspiration Shoot

What a glorious day in Charleston. I would never trade the mountains for the sea, but the sea is a close second. Traveling to Charleston from Asheville is pretty much a straight shot on I-26 for about 4 hours. I was going for a Charleston Wedding inspiration shoot! My friend Brittany and I decided to make a “girls” weekend out of the trip. And Since we needed a much-needed mama break we chatted the entire four hours which made the time fly.

When we arrived at the hotel and stepped out of the car to the salty 80-degree air it felt so good. I love Charleston, but the summers of heat are brutal unless of course, you live at the beach. Then it’s not so bad. Brittany and I started our trip with dinner at The Tattooed Moose and oh my yum! So good! Headed back to the hotel and watched TV until we crashed.

The next day we headed off downtown and got some brunch and did a little sightseeing. Went over to check out the infamous Rainbow Row. Then drove to Lowndes Grove for an inspiration shoot. One of my favorite things about Charleston Wedding venue Lowndes Grove is that it is right on the intercoastal waterway! There is a gorgeous dock that walks out and overlooks the water of the Ashley River and it is stunning. Definitely a great drawing point for this venue! The porch of the Lowndes Grove Plantation all decked out for the reception of dreams. Every detail is perfect. Even the black and white floor pattern scream little bistro in France.

About The Couple

Mariam and Criss were like a dream! These two are effortlessly in love! Every big smile and precious giggle, I loved every minute I spent with these two!
