Bobby Joly & Brooke St. Martin

February 22, 2020

Bobby, a City of Charleston firefighter, and Brooke, a freelance writer and blogger, met during a showing of a Mount Pleasant condo, where Bobby was the landlord. Nine months after meeting, Brooke asked Bobby out for drinks, and the rest is history. One night before dinner, Bobby told Brooke he needed to stop by the condo where they first met, and when Brooke walked in, he surprised her with rose petals on the floor, champagne, and a ring. They held their wedding ceremony in Washington Square park. Following the ceremony, the newlyweds and guests enjoyed a family-style dinner at Indaco.
