Styled Shoot | Unitarian Church



For shutterbug Kate Timbers, the 200-year-old The Unitarian Church in Charleston is the perfect location for romantic portraits, timeless ceremonies, and more. With the church’s pastel-blue arched ceiling and its lush graveyard, it has all the charms that have kept the Holy City on the map for centuries. For this shoot, Kate says she wanted to reflect the natural details that accent the Archdale gem. Well, she surely did just that. With a modernizing palette of peaches and pinks, fresh florals from Feast and Flora, a custom invitation suite from Inkberry Calligraphy, and chic furnishings from The French Eclectic there are copious ideas for brides marrying here or elsewhere, in fine Charleston style. (And be sure to check out the rest of the vendor list as it’s a veritable roadmap to a dream Big Day!) Get your Pinning finger ready and scroll for some seriously gorgeous inspiration.

We searched high and low for a wedding to close out the New Year, and what better pick than Annie and Matt, whose ceremony ended with the officiant (the bride’s brother-in-law, or in this case, we’re...

Here’s a little discussed fact: A great DJ can make (or break) a wedding. And the difference between a first dance that has everyone sighing and posting (instead of cringing) and a party that...

Here’s the thing: Charleston’s in the tropics, more or less. And here in the jungle, it rains from time to time, which can put a damper on a portrait sesh out and about if you don’t plan well. The...

Ok, people. Yes, you’re gonna love Jesse and Will’s wedding photos (al fresco reception in the Old Village? Yes, please!). But their proposal story? It might even beat the pretty out for best in show...

Lindsey and José didn’t start off on the right foot (he didn’t do a double-take when he first met her at Boston College, so she gave him the same indifferent treatment, and sparks didn’t fly for...
