Oh, What a Wedding!!

I am back from what was the most perfect, fun-filled, joyous wedding weekend of my best friend, C!!

Each wedding event was complete with loads of bliss and cheer (and of course some tears of joy here and there - namely from my Maid of Honor toast which despite the 12+ months I had to prepare it turned into more of a I-can't-talk-because-I'm-so-teary couple of words...) all leading up to what was the most picturesque, beautiful, and special wedding ceremony and reception. 

I am honored to have been part of the entire weekend and to stand by C & P's sides as they started their happily-ever-after together!

Here is a quick glimpse of what's to come! 

I am chomping at the bit to see the professional photos as one of my all-time favorite photographers, Patricia Lyons, shot the wedding and I just know they are going to be nothing short of AMAZING.

Be forewarned, I will likely be over-sharing them with you once they're finished!

 One of the many beautifully orchestrated wedding festivities was the Bridesmaids Luncheon held at the Bride's Godmother's home in the "country."  I loved the rustic, shabby chic, yet sophisticated flower arrangements  so I just have to share! 

(Note - apologies for the poor camera quality. Trust me when I say these pictures do not do the beautiful luncheon justice!)

A Few Treasures From a Wonderful Vacation in Heaven - Charleston, SC

In case I haven't made it obvious from previous posts, Charleston, SC is truly my "happy place." I am just returning from a long weekend mini-vacation there with some dear friends and wanted to share a glimpse into a few things I saw along the way in follow-up to last week's Slice of Heaven post.

(More to come....)

My friends introduced me to Amen Street, now the newest addition to my enormous, always growing list of favorite Charleston restaurants. In addition to having the most delicious lowcountry southern cuisine, I fell in love with their oyster shell chandeliers.  They are just phenomenal - and so fitting for the cuisine.

Taco Boy (downtown) has such unique decor. Unfortunately, I didn't get more pictures but I love these colorful glass chandeliers.  I love the unique look - almost as much as I love their frozen screwdrivers.  One of the most divine drinks I have tasted!

What a magnificent window box. Nothing fancy yet it adds a wonderful splash of classy, tasteful color to a facade.
