We were not sure til the week before where we were going to go but we knew we wanted to drive and that we wanted to be alone. We decided on Charleston SC and I was so pleased. The hotel we stayed at we got at a great deal 65.00 a night with using Room Savers.com. The 5 start hotel had a restraunt on the top floor and had room service. We got to tour the city and go on ghost walks and see the fort. We had a great time experiencing different foods and just enjoying the atmosphere. A peddler on the road made me a rose out of a palmeto leaf... I still have it and it is the best part of our honeymoon because it is a story i can tell our children about later in life. Also we were able to stay 4 nights instead of 2 because we got such a great deal on our hotel.

This was just my potion I am not sure exactly how much my husband spent but it was definitely the most expensive part of our wedding plans and went really simple. We used greenery to decorate the church because it was already nicely decorated and our colors were crimson red and White. My boquet was all white with Calalillies and gardenias, and babys breath. The florest took ideas from the boquet and used different flowers for the bootineers and corsages for the mothers and groomsmen. The bridesmaids just carried arm boquets which consistad in greenery and a single long stemmed calalilly. It was beautiful but my boquet was really strong smells almost overwhelming at times. That is one thing I would say consider in chosing a live boquet.

We went with an itallian theme for for the rehersal dinner. I may have spelled the name of the restraunt wrong because we always call it Napi's. We had Chicken Marsala and Lasana as our dishes. They also provides Salad and breadsticks and we had cheesecake (my favorite) for desert. The food was fresh and hot. Really great experience.

I chose to have my photographer do a disk for me with the option to purchase individuals. But my upfront fee was 300.00 for the disk and her to take over 300.00 pictures. She did a fantabulous job. The pictures were not all posed and most of the snap shots of fun times during the wedding that were captured are unbelievable. It was amazing how she seemed to capture all the perfect times when my husband (who never smiles in pictures) was actually smiling.

I bought my 4 year old her flower dress for the wedding here and only spent 55.00 with s/h charges included. The S/H was free as a special but I have since bought dresses for two other weddings in which my oldest daughter was a flowergirl and I have bought her dress just 3 weeks ago for an upcomming father daughter ball. I also purchased dresses for special occassions for my todler. They are always helpful and the one time I had to return for exchange in size they overnighted it at no extra charge. Again the no extra charge was a conveince because they made a mistake in sending out the right size but they made it right and did not give me any hassel. I would HIGHLY reccommend them and have since bought more and plan to continue.

This church is beautiful. We are members of the Church of Christ however in getting married there we would have went broke trying just to decorate because it was so roomy. My husbands grandparents were members at the Presbyterian church and they allowed our minister to marry us and use the facility. It was just enough space and very easily decorated. The church members there were also very helpful with the fine details especially the music controls and piano player. They all together made our day special.
We were very fortunate that our vendor was a group that had just began catering and did it for the price of the food as our wedding gift so this would definitely cost more to anyone else. We knew the people at ACU and they wanted to do this for us as a gift so the food was just under 500.00. They decorated the church fellowship hall with all of their linens and used centerpeices that we had created at another vendor. The main aspect of this catering was the fruit waterfall they created for the table. IT was so amazing.

My cake was beautiful. I wish I could post a pic for everyone to see. Our cake was three teirs and had fresh flowers for color... my colors were crimson red and white. She included Calalillies which are my favorite flowers and what we used in my boquets. She did an amazing job and we did not have to sacrifice taste for beauty the cake was so moist and delicious.

I found the perfect gown here. They made all alteration to my wedding gown and to my bridesmaids dresses. They were extremely helpful in finding the perfect bridesmaids gowns to fit each body style of my party. They also helped me to find the perfect accessories. When we couldn't find the perfect earings they went above and beyond to help me find what I was looking for at another store. My consultant Jennifer was not in it just for the sale you could tell she had a passion for weddings and wanted my special day to be perfect.
