Sam from Dream Day Charleston is an awesome DJ! We found him as a recommendation from our planner who had all great things to say. We're so glad he was able to DJ for our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. From the start, Sam was responsive and personable. Dream Day Charleston's website and online music portal were great resources that helped us start the music planning process! Sam even provided playlists for pre-ceremony options, cocktail/dinner music, and reception songs for every type of music taste. Sam took time to meet with us before our event to walk us through the day and and help us nail down final song choices and details. He even helped us edit and cut down our first dance song. Execution on the wedding day was flawless. The ceremony was great, Sam made sure the officiant was properly mic'd, our speakers had microphones, and made upbeat announcements to keep our event progressing. DJ Sam got everyone out on the dance floor with his great mixes and was able to take requests. I would highly recommend Sam for any event! His energy, passion, and professionalism are off the charts.

Highly recommend for an intimate and high-quality experience for wedding rehearsal and cocktail hours. Ellery and team were nothing short of perfect. She was very prompt and organized, making our entire evening seamless and stress-free. The food was nothing short of outstanding, all guests were overly impressed with the quality. The team was also very flexible with us, bringing out more food than we anticipated as we had guests arriving late due to travel delays and were unable to dine prior to the cocktail hour. We loved it so much that we ended up extending the party because everyone was having such a great time. La Cave was the perfect size for an intimate celebration for about 90 guests and 40 for our rehearsal dinner. Highly recommend for hosting a rehearsal dinner and or cocktail hour.

Salthouse Catering was a fantastic choice for our wedding catering. Having experienced their food at a different event, I was sold when it came to my wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was detailed, efficient, and direct, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of their work and value was exceptional - their food was delicious, with so many choices to accommodate all of our guests' dietary needs. They were also willing to customize the menu when we needed. On the day of the wedding, our guests left with full bellies and happy hearts, and the presentation of the food was excellent. The service was great, and we appreciated that they offered both local and traditional options that were perfect for our wedding. Salthouse and Mark were so nice to work with and flexible when we needed to make last-minute changes. We highly recommend them for any wedding or event.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to be part of your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
Laura and Rachel absolutely blew us away in every single way. From the very beginning, the two of them made us feel more like their family than simply clients who were paying them for a service. It took us less than 24 hours after our first meeting with them to know they were who we wanted on our wedding day, and I am SO glad we did. They made us feel totally comfortable in front of the camera and more than that, they made it FUN. We felt special and joyful and so full of love the entire time we worked with them. They made our day flow flawlessly, keeping us on track while still letting us ENJOY the day. They just went above and beyond in every way - whether it be getting down on their knees to help me switch into my reception shoes or running around cocktail hour to find the friend who was in charge of bustling my dress, they did so much more than just take our photos. But those photos… let me tell you, when I first saw our sneak previews, I full on cried. And the full gallery, OH MAN. I don’t know how they managed to perfectly capture every emotion we felt that day while still making us look amazing (my husband and I were definitely ugly crying for a good portion of our first look couples portraits!), but I can’t even put into words what it felt like to look at those photos for the first time. Simply put - we’re obsessed with these two. Laura and Rachel have our business for LIFE. I’m already trying to plan a ten year vow renewal just so we can share the day with them again! (Kidding, but not really ;) ). Take it from me - hiring these two will be the easiest and best decision you will make during your wedding planning process. We love you, Laura and Rachel!!!

From our first conversation with Rosemary & Rye, we knew we had found our caterer. The team was responsive and easy to work with throughout the entire planning process, and on our wedding day they showed up ready to make everything perfect. Their lead was so thoughtful that she even helped me bustle my dress during the reception. The beef brisket biscuit appetizer was the absolute star of the show, literally my grandmother is still trying to duplicate the recipe! Everything ran on schedule, the water service was seamless (very important with the Charleston heat), and our guests have not stopped raving about how delicious the food was. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we highly recommend Rosemary & Rye to any couple looking for a caterer that truly cares.

We are an easy-going team that can roll with the punches when necessary while also making decisive decisions throughout the day. We offer multiple levels of service for photography and even offer videography as well.

I literally just finished texting Krista that she is the absolute best human ever after looking at my wedding album for the first time. The teasers were incredible, but after looking through the entire gallery, I am ABSOLUTELY FLOORED with the photos. My husband and I eloped in Charleston from Maryland and I contacted easily 15 photographers. Several of them were at least twice the price and their quality paled in comparison to Krista and her all star team. After having our initial phone call, I knew I had to have Krista be a part of our wedding. We chatted for an hour and I felt like we were friends from another life and it turned out we had very similar lives and just completely hit it off. She is tell it like it is, but insanely professional at the same time which is VERY hard to pull off. She is a ray of sunshine, genuinely adores what she does and gives all of herself to make sure she delivers and she CRUSHES it. Stephanie was absolutely amazing too and Krista's husband and his partner created the most magnificent wedding video for us.

We had an amazing experience with Reflections Media Carolinas for both our photography and videography services. From the beginning, we felt like we were getting everything we wanted by booking both services as part of the same package, and the value was well worth it. Our videographer, Chacie, and photographer, Allison, were professional, kind, and incredibly supportive of our vision for the day. What mattered most to us was capturing the authenticity, joy, and love that surrounded our wedding so that our friends, family, and future selves could experience our love story for years to come. They absolutely delivered. The photos and video beautifully reflect the emotions, connections, and special moments that made our day so meaningful. One thing we especially appreciated was how well Chacie and Allison worked together. Having collaborated before, they fed off each other’s energy seamlessly and functioned as a cohesive team throughout the day. Their teamwork helped everything flow naturally and allowed us to feel comfortable and present rather than feeling like we were constantly being posed or directed. There was one hiccup involving our package. We had requested additional coverage time for our videographer, but due to a miscommunication, both our photographer and videographer were booked for extra time. Thankfully, with the help of our incredible wedding coordinator, everything worked itself out and did not negatively impact our day. Overall, we were extremely pleased with our experience and with the final products we received. If you’re looking for a team that genuinely cares about capturing the heart of your wedding day while providing a professional and enjoyable experience, we would absolutely recommend Reflections Media Carolinas. We are so grateful to have these memories preserved in a way that feels authentic to us

Working with Kristy was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. She was communicative with the process of wedding planning and was flexible with our schedule. When we told her about our change in our wedding date, Kristy was not only understanding but was also very accommodating… which we appreciated so much! The day of our wedding, Kristy arrived on time (6am!) and was able to capture beautiful sunrise pictures. She was so great with our big crazy family. She was also very flexible when we had to change up our outside venue to inside due to the rain. Kristy even stayed to take cute solo pics of me by the pool. We’re just so happy that Kristy really captured the happiness and fun of our special day. We’re so excited to share these photos and we will treasure them forever. Thank you Kristy! XO!

When you do the Partial Planning package, you are hiring a professional project manager who genuinely cares about your vision and can help guide you to make it a realty. We worked with Krista, who was direct and conversational, making it easy to ask questions and work through decisions together. She was extremely adaptable, staying flexible with our needs like scheduling meetings only after 7pm and helping us understand what's really important and what can be cut when making our Pinterest dreams come true on a budget. Her expertise with contracts and vendor relationships was also extremely helpful— she helped us understand what contract elements were boilerplate and what we needed to push back on. She also helped make sure we were considering the details we didn't even know to worry about, which gave us peace of mind throughout the planning process. The only feedback I have is that the email inbox set up can make it difficult to track correspondence chains, and that we had some issues being cc'ed on all correspondence with vendors early on. There were instances I wished I could shoot over a text to clarify something, but that privilege is reserved for the final month of planning- when things are actually urgent. On the day of, the coordination brings your dreams to life without you needing to think about anything but marrying the love of your life. Their photography background meant they structured our timeline in a way that helped our photographer capture every moment without us ever feeling rushed. We had a lot of moving parts-- horse and carriage ride, different location for ceremony and first look, full tent flip rain plan, different buildings for both brides getting married, 14 bridesmaids, 4 separate companies for rentals and 2 separate companies for bar and food-- and the Chantilly Lace team made sure everyone knew exactly what our vision was and how to pull it together. We are so grateful we found this team and can't recommend them enough. Photo credit to Simply Best Photography -- we also cannot recommend her enough!

Pinnacle Weddings is a full service Wedding Company for couples who desire an effortless and romantic wedding day. We design and plan a Wedding Day unique to you and make sure that we make your dream day become a reality

Linda Warner and Pinnacle Wedding Planning are absolutely phenomenal! Our event was a complex affair with many moving parts and cultural elements to it. Vendors who we the family chose, unfortunately, did not meet the professional standards we had hoped for. Despite these challenges, Linda managed everything with grace, poise, and an impressive level of expertise. Her ability to keep things running smoothly and beautifully was nothing short of remarkable. Even during moments that could have been chaotic, her calm demeanor and resourcefulness brought a much-needed sense of reassurance. I am truly grateful for her dedication and skill, which turned a stressful day into a beautiful and seamless experience. I cannot recommend Linda and Pinnacle Wedding Planning highly enough—she was nothing short of incredible!

We’ve been shooting weddings for 19 years. We’ve seen a thing or two and have learned to adapt and pivot with ease. On your wedding day, not only are we capturing all the things happening around us, but we blend in with your favorite people. We love your grandma too, we'll hug your mom, we'll help your maid of honor... simply put, we got you! Your experience with us is important. We want you to feel like you can trust us.

Krista and Brandon photographed our wedding and it was seriously the best decision we could have made. Krista made us feel so comfortable all day long. She was just everywhere all at once and helped keep our day on track. I have no idea what I would have done without her. Brandon was also everywhere. It was apparent that they've worked together for a long time because they just knew what to do so effortlessly. What really was the most meaningful was how much they truly cared about us and our day. Krista was so attentive to me and what I needed or how I was feeling. They go above and beyond.

The team at the Francis Marion Hotel was an absolute pleasure to work with. Their communication was prompt, attentive, and highly detailed throughout the entire planning process.

They were extremely accommodating, working closely with my mother and other guests who had major food intolerance issues.
