Southern Spotting :: Forsyth Park Ceremony

by in Inspirations, Main, Personal on

I would argue that there are few locations in the South as instantly recognizable and iconic as Savannah’s Forysth Park. So when I saw this gorgeous ceremony, photographed by husband-and-wife pair Scobey Photography, I knew I had to share!

    I would love to shoot a wedding in Savannah. It definitely rivals Charleston as one of the most beautiful destination wedding locations!!

    I’m looking at a verrry small wedding there next spring. Any suggestions? Anyone have a good wedding planner, etc? Not sure I need one for such a small venue, would need to make it worth their while.

      Jeanie: The planner for this particular wedding was Bonnie at First City Events. She did a really wonderful job and was a JOY to work with. Hope this helps :)

Her sweet little PEZ people might catch your eye at first, but it’s Amy Pezzicara’s engaging images that will capture your attention! Amy owns Pezz Photo, and strives to make photos that will make you smile. She’s based in Tampa, Florida, and experienced at both traveling for weddings and working with brides and grooms who are traveling to her! Check out her site here and her blog (aptly named “Eye Candy”) here!

The Planters Inn is a gorgeous, historic Charleston venue listed in our Resources section. In fact, they’re the only historic property at the famed City Market! We love that they cater to intimate weddings (their spaces can accommodate up to 125 guests), and that they are happy to serve as a couture one-stop shop for brides and grooms traveling in from afar (food, flowers, cake, coordination — the works). The Inn’s Garden Courtyard or private dining rooms would also be great spots for rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, or morning-after brunches. See more photos and all the details at their site!

Modern, eclectic, bold, funky, and fresh… those are just a few of the words Atlanta-based photographer Chelsea Patricia uses to describe herself and her work, and we couldn’t agree more! She seems to attract bright and happy clients (as evidenced by this adorable post on her blog), so if you’re a bright and happy person, we might have just helped you find your photographer! You can see much more of her work on her site and blog.

We’re always looking for fabulous new vendors to add to our Resource Directory, so if you’re a wedding vendor interested in that section or any other in our magazine or site, just email Katharine for a media kit!

    We absolutely love the planter’s inn. Working with them on Heather and Tim’s wedding (the two images you have featured above) was such a treat. For more pictures please visit our bog http://www.lwse.blogspot.com

    Chelsea Patricia does amazing work! I can’t wait to work with her in the future! Charleston is a beautiful city I would love to go back and visit again.

Ask the Expert :: Hostess Gifts

by in Expert Advice, Main on

We’re back with another Ask the Experts column!

This week’s query comes from Elizabeth. She writes:

“Quick question from a bride-to-be:

Have y’all ever done a post on great, personal hostess gifts? I have a few showers/parties coming up and am on the hunt for some good gifts for the hostesses.

Thanks!”

But of course! Here are a few of our favorite ideas:

A. If your pal is hosting at her home, how about a stylish return address stamp? We love these ones from Paperwink.

B. Southern favorite Paloma’s Nest has a whole host of gifts that could be perfect for an entertainer. We particularly like these gold-rimmed placecards, which we used in our V2 Serenbe shoot!

C. For a gal close to your heart (bonus points if she’s preppy!), we love this set of six heart cups and saucers. Too cute!

D. For hostesses who are of age, we’d pair South Carolina favorite Firefly Vodka with a set of gorgeous drinking glasses. Our office’s personal favorite flavor is the peach sweet tea!

E. For the hostess who whips up amazing eats for your shower, head to your local Home Depot or Lowe’s and pick up a pair of mini rosemary trees. Fold kraft paper around the base, tie on a ribbon, and call it a day!

F. For a lady who’s born and bred, order up a custom state pillow from Love California. She’ll customize the color and shape to your specs!

G. For the girl who refuses to drink out of anything but a mason jar, pick up the delicate porcelain version spun by Alyssa Ettinger. Pop in a few blooms for bonus presentation points!

H. The perfect gym, beach, or shopping tote bag, this is the gift for the girl on the go. We love the preppy stripes! If it’s summer, pop in a towel and a chick lit about friendship :)

I. For the pal who’s on top of trends, pick up a few snazzy chevron plates from Aedriel Originals. Bright and cheery!

J. The most delicate bowls for your most delicate friend. We love the gilded ones, but Up in the Air Somewhere makes bright colors, too!

K. Last but certainly not least, these white porcelain farmer’s market baskets will add some dressed-up Southern style to any hostess’s entryway. Find them at Jayson Home & Garden.

What’s the best hostess gift you’ve ever given or received?

    I am a bride-to-be as well. Recently, I gave personalized stationary as a hostess gift and it was a huge it. Paper Affair sells adorable stationary and they will personalize it for free with your order. They have a plethora of font and color options for you choose from for the personalization as well.

    Thank you so much for answering my question & for the suggestions!

    I used Embroidery by Melissa on Etsy (www.embroiderybymelissa.etsy.com) for embroidered Linen towels with their intials as a thank you to my hostess and guests.

    She was very quick and worked with me on colors before she made them,
