From the bride, Carrie…
Our color palette was very classic and timeless: black, various shades of green, cream, and silver. As for bridesmaids, I wanted them to look just as fabulous as me and not cookie-cutter. I searched for an interesting designer black dress for my maids for months, but unfortunately I was looking in the wrong season. I ended up finding Jenny Yoo’s bridesmaids collection at The Gown Boutique of Charleston and fell in love with the versatility in the styles and was in love with the fabric. I took my sister and my two best friends to try them on (all with different body types) and they all looked fabulous – SOLD! I had Heather Key Tiller from Filigree custom design necklaces for each attendant. Heather used vintage chains and belts and attached beautiful crystals at the end. Each necklace unique and versatile- I LOVED THEM. I also gave each of my girls a vintage hankie to tote with them down the aisle.
All of the men wore a tux from Jos. A. Bank including my precious nephew who was our ring bearer, but Charlie decided they should all wear a vintage skinny black tie with the exception of himself in a traditional bow-tie.
My dress was a gorgeous silk gown by Amy Kuschel which I purchased at The Gown Boutique of Charleston. I loved my dress – it felt like butter on and gave me an awesome hour-glass shape. Very vintage-chic. I wore a birdcage veil and vintage crystal earrings, bracelets and a borrowed diamond band from my mother. I had fabulous silver Delman peep tow sling backs…LOVE them. I changed into a Lela Rose short shift dress that had embroidered silver circles in the fabric…LOVE LOVE.

Please please tell me where that precious ring pillow came from! I love it!!
Love this wedding. I am too using this color scheme. Question, is it possible to save any of these images individually without saving the entire Inspiration Board? I'd love to file a few of these pictures away as inspiration but can only save the whole board.
What an adorable & stylish little ring bearer!
(He looks like a mini Josh Groban in his tux :)
gorgeous! The event planners at A Charleston Bride do such amazing work!!
OH MY GOSH! I La-la-LOVE this wedding and we are just into board #2! So similar to ours - to be held in Chapel Hill (South) Our theme is modern with vintage touches - colors are black, shades of green and creme with metallics, AND my bridesmaids are wearing Jenny Yoo Black Knee Length BM dresses! I am on the edge of my seat....cannot wait to see more!!!! I love the succulents for grooms men boutinere and the bouquets! Ring Pillow is gorgeous - can we find out where this is from?!
gorgeous wedding.
Seriously!! I wish this wedding was posted sooner. I am getting married in about two weeks and have the same color scheme and similar theme. I would have loved to use this as further inspiration - but now my vendors may kill me!
This wedding is SO inspiring! Our florals will also be white/cream and green - totally planning to bring these pictures to upcoming consultations and say "THIS is what I'm going for!" So fabulous and chic. LOVE LOVE LOVE the groom's boutonnière.
Ooh Meghan & Rachelle, similar theme and colors?! We should talk :) - so exciting!!!
la LOVE too! the flowers are stunning! Everything about this wedding looks gorgeous!
Kristin and Vaneesha- The ring pillow was custom made using a fabric from GDC, a Charleston, SC based home decor store. Carrie, my day-of wedding coordinator, was the mastermind behind this little pillow...we also used the same fabric for some throw pillows to be used at the reception...LOVED this design element!!
le sigh. everything. i mean everything about this wedding i what i want for my own. the birdcage veil. the vintage charm. even the rain!
One of the best parts about using the succulent as a boutonniere is that once your done with it you can put it in a pot and it will grow. Mine is sitting on the window sill right now and it reminds me of our wedding every day! :)
What a beautiful wedding - just stunning!
Carrie - what kind of flowers were used for your bouquet? I just love it. Thanks so much!
Gorgeous!! Can you please tell me where you purchased your earrings??? They're exactly what I've been looking for - to wear with my AmyK gown! thanks!!
I second the request on the earrings. I know in the post it said they were vintage but is there a store that sells them or were they passed down? Thanks!
Yes, please do tell what types of flowers were used!! Pretty please and thank you!
Here is the scoop on the jewelry: The earrings were actually given to me as a gift, but when looking for my bridesmaids jewelry/earrings, I found some at Anthropologie that were reminiscent. The bracelet was by Nadri and the ring was passed down.
I will need to ask my florist about the flowers in my bouquet..stay tuned :)
Thnaks Carrie! Looking forward to your response!!! They look like peonies, with accents of green hypericum berries; but it looks like there's more...
Are there any more pics of the bridesmaids dresses posted anywhere? My theme is similar to yours, and I'd love to see what they looked like! Fabulous wedding, absolutely gorgeous!
Would love to know the flowers used in the bridesmaids bouquets. My daughter is getting married and is having her reception at the Wickliffe House. These pictures have given us great ideas.
Everything was truly beautiful!
I really like your blog, the theme is good and the info you provide is really impressive, I am going to come back to check on the e info you put up, best of luck and keep up the good work.
I enjoy the website, maintain it up. I locate this kind of stuff fascinating. Seems like an straightforward mistake on the sales rep's part, but it really is one particular that shouldn't happen.
