Purple Reign | Varying shades of purple rule this country club affair at Daniel Island

Erica Harris & Nathan Tuggle
September 14, 2013, Daniel Island Club

 

Georgia residents Erica Harris and Nathan Tuggle were after Southern hospitality for their Big Day. “We love the atmosphere, history, food, and weather,” says Erica of choosing the Lowcountry and Daniel Island Club for their wedding locale and venue. When it came to a palette, she and Nathan—who teamed up to tackle about 40 percent of the wedding planning themselves—went with bold eggplant, lavender, olive green, and gray, a combination they found on Pinterest. Karen Porreca of Simply Eventful Charleston stepped in to style and coordinate the affair, including the ceremony dominated by shades of eggplant, and a reception decked out in the full array of colors—from deep purple linens accented with green here and there to the lavender-lit ballroom, which proved a huge hit. “It was a big dance party from beginning to end,” says Erica.
