After a really tiring day with all of the wedding festivities, this was a great place to relax and enjoy the evening with my new husband. It was very nice and not overdone like some "honeymoon" suites. We just wanted a simple, nice place to relax and enjoy being together. I would highly recommend staying here. You are close to everything downtown if you want something to do and the staff are very friendly.

We also opted to have nontraditional miniature cake squares (aka petifores). This was such a great idea! It made it easier to serve because guests could just walk up and grab a petifore instead of having to wait for the cake to be cut. These are one of my favorite sweets, so I loved having them at the wedding. This was our cake instead of doing the traditional two-three layer. I would highly recommend this bakery for petifores and also regular wedding cakes.

This was definitely a very large portion of my wedding budget. We had a really large guest list, but Palmetto Party worked with us to make sure we had everything we needed. The biggest thing was the tent that saved us from getting soaked! We had a champagne fountain break before the wedding started, and they sent someone out to fix it before the reception begun. We shopped around but found they had everything we needed.

They are wonderful! They are a string quartet and were one of my favorite parts of our wedding. They are a little pricey but music was important to me. I definitely think they are worth the money for their beautiful music.

If I could type in my rating for Cheyenne, I would put 100+! I love her and her husband, Geoff. We have some of the most amazing pictures from our wedding day. It rained at our outdoor wedding, but they still hung in there and captured more than I could have ever imagined. If a bride doesn't choose Cheyenne, then they are making a huge mistake. There aren't enough words to say how much I think of her and her work. Just check out her blog and it tells it all!! All of our future family photos will be done by her. I will never use another photographer!

Stan was a family friend who I have known my whole life. I'm not sure how many other weddings he would be willing to do. He is a judge and therefore can do a civil ceremony. I wrote the entire ceremony, but he threw some humor into it.

This is a great location for an outdoor wedding. It is a historic house with large grounds. They are very reasonably priced because they are owned by the City of Columbia Parks and Recreation Service. They were more than willing to work with us and the large amount of guests that we have. You have to do all of your own catering and decorations though. It made for a beautiful venue though. I would recommend the spot to those people trying to have an affordable outdoor wedding. The only downside is the small amount of parking actually at the house. You can park on the street and also ask the nearby college to use their lot.

I loved this place when I was a kid, so I had to use them for my wedding day. I know it is cheesy to use a kid's hair place, but it made my wedding day a little less stressful. Jenny did my hair for my bridal portrait and wedding day. It stayed in one place and made the day a lot more enjoyable to not have to worry about it.

I am extremely happy with my engagement ring and wedding band. We got a good price and really good quality jewelry. The service wasn't great in some of their locations, but I love my rings!

They were easy to work with and provided everything we needed. I felt like the price was kind of high for the tuxedos. Our groomsmen couldn't afford a really expensive tux, so it was really hard to find a decent quality for a cheaper price. Overall we were happy with their service and products. I would recommend them to someone else.
