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. Wowza. / venue @skinnydipcharleston / florals @thelindsaybishop / host/event design + stylist @kristinchambless / sponsored by @olay / tableware and chairs @oohevents / catering @hambycatering / calligraphy @j.lilydesign/ dessert @bib.on / image @rachelredphotography

Wow! Talk about an exit. Congrats to New York City style blogger @waityouneedthis, who said “I do” to Shola this past weekend at @montagepalmettobluff. The two won #brideslivewedding contest from @bridesand Charleston’s own @sygdesigns did the florals. Sweet all around… / venue @montagepalmettobluff / planning + design @brookekeegan / florals @sygdesigns / dress @maggiesotterodesigns / groom’s suit @menswearhouse / image @jennyfustudio

How about this for a backyard wedding? Yes, please! Here’s a pro tip: Use invisible ghost chairs on the lawn to keep the visual “clutter” at a minimum. / planning, design + draping @yojevents / florals @stephaniegibbsevents / cake @ashleybakery / rentals @oohevents and @eventworksrentals / image @clayaustin

The feeling you get when you just married your best friend (and apparently simultaneously learn that you can fly). Congrats Savannah and Max! / venue @wingateplantation / florals @bearded.florist / gown @moderntrousseau / suit @menswearhouse / image @kileyylauren

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...
