The Ocean Course on Kiawah

March 5, 2011

We are so excited to have started the Spring wedding season with Anne and Steve!

Their ceremony was held on the lawn of the Ocean Course on Kiawah Island, overlooking the beach and ocean.

We framed off the ceremony area with urns filled with pink hydrangea and regional grasses.

It was a perfect spring day, blue sky, beautiful sunset, and warm ocean breezes.

Anne carried a bouquet of white calla lilies, wrapped with remnants of her mothers wedding gown.

The bride’s beach girl side was incorporated into the gorgeous cake with edible sea shells, by Elaine Mincey.

Guests were welcomed to the cocktail hour with Charleston gates featuring blue and cream hydrangaes, charleston lanterns,

and an ” Avenue of Oaks” covered with Spanish moss.

The Charleston theme was carried out at dinner with tables named after Charleston Streets,

the Engaging Events team took black and white photo’s of the street signs, matted and framed them -

they have now become a keepsake for the happy couple!

The crowd danced the nite away to the sounds of the Quiana Parler Band , dined on a delectible surf and turf dinner,

and the couple sent their guests off in style with chocolate truffles from Christophe Artisan Chocolates….wow – what a night!

Congratulations again to Briana and Ben! Best wishes to you both!!
