Live life in full bloom, right? When Charleston floral and event designer @thelindsaybishop is faced with a challenge, she accepts, and goodness gracious, she delivers. 875 tulips (yep, you read that right) turned this table into a literal work of living art.

Wow! Talk about an exit. Congrats to New York City style blogger @waityouneedthis, who said “I do” to Shola this past weekend at @montagepalmettobluff.
