South Carolina Roots Run Deep At This Intimate Lowcountry Wedding

[section title=”The Planning”]
[field title=”Wedding Colors”]Blue, green, white[/field]
[field title=”Design / Vibe / Vision”]With deep roots in South Carolina, Katherine and Brock hosted an intimate wedding along the May River, cherishing the rare opportunity to gather loved ones in a place of profound familial and emotional significance. Their ceremony took place on the bluff overlooking the river marshland, where bursts of blue flowers adorned the pathway leading to the altar, as Lowcountry dolphins were spotted swimming in the distance.

[field title=”Proposal Story”]Contrary to traditional dating advice, Katherine didn’t even have to leave her house to meet Brock. While hosting a party with her roommates, one of them invited her coworkers, who happened to be men working in tech. That night, she met Brock. Over the years, Katherine has spent every summer visiting her family in Bluffton, South Carolina. As her relationship with Brock blossomed, so did their connection to this family property. The May River became a special place for them — it was where Katherine and Brock first said, “I love you.” They shared many heart-to-heart moments, including a memorable boat ride along the river where they discussed their future together. Despite Brock struggling to keep his nerves in check, he planned a dockside proposal to Katherine outside their favorite restaurant, followed by a beautiful family celebration afterward.[/field]
