Alligators, Rattan, and Palmettos Oh My! A Spring Wedding in Lowcountry at Sea Pines Resort

The Planning
Design / Vibe / Vision
The vision was truly to celebrate the Lowcountry, from the alligators featured on the invitation suite to the rattan details featured at each guest table.
The Fashion
Wedding Gown
Oh my word, the wedding gown! It was a stunning piece from Martina Liana that, alone, was beyond incredible, but combined with the off-the-shoulder puff-sleeve cape, blew everyone away! The bride also added a stunning veil with hand-stitched florals, tying together her bridal look with every bit of florals.
Bridesmaid Dresses
The bridesmaids chose their own dresses in floral patterns that allowed each bridesmaid's personality to shine while adding a lot of depth to the design of the wedding day.
The Details
Food & Drink
Cocktail hour featured passed champagne, hors d’Oeuvres, and raw oysters. Dinner was a seated meal with local fish, pasta, and steak.
Florals & Decor
The bride, along with Casa Felix, designed an invitation suite that showcased her favorite things about the Lowcountry -- palm and palmetto fronds, alligators, and tropical colors. The floral design was based around that, with touches of tropical oranges and yellows and lush white blooms throughout the bouquets and centerpieces.
Wedding Cake
The wedding cake was a stunning, three tiered treat with simple, clean lines and surrounded by gorgeous florals -- and the best part was: the cake was funfetti!
Special Detail #1
The couple ADORES the game of golf and frequently plays together. Their cocktail hour featured a putting green for the guests (and eventually the couple!) to enjoy.
Special Detail #2
The groom's best man was his brother who also officiated their wedding! Knowing the couple's history and some hilarious anecdotes added a personal, beautiful touch to the ceremony.
