Charleston has long been a favorite for destination weddings, and it’s easy to see why. In fact, Charleston has once again been named Travel + Leisure’s ‘Best U.S. City’ for the 12th year in a row! It’s no wonder that Brooke and Matthew wanted their classic engagement session in downtown Charleston and their wedding in Kiawah—who wouldn’t?
Engagement sessions provide a wonderful opportunity to connect before the wedding day. Meeting Brooke and Matthew was nothing but delightful. Getting to know wedding clients before their big day helps everyone feel comfortable and results in a much less stressful wedding experience.
An Unforgettable Engagement Session
Brooke and Matthew’s classic, downtown Charleston engagement session was nothing short of memorable. Initially planned for sunset, we had to move the session earlier to avoid an incoming storm. We managed to get through most of the session before the rain started, capturing some beautiful moments along the way.
Destination Wedding at The Ocean Course – Kiawah Island
While Brooke and Matthew have lived from coast-to-coast, they currently reside in North Carolina. Since their loved ones are located all over the United States, their hearts were set on a destination wedding in a location everyone would love to travel. Ultimately, they chose the greater Charleston area for their big day. After touring various venues, they chose the stunning Ocean Course at Kiawah Island.
As with many young couples, Brooke and Matthew are busy with their careers. In fact, Brooke recently opened Little Sprouts – Budding Futures Pediatric Therapy. Given their demanding schedules, they enlisted the guidance and expertise of wedding planner Kaely Meryanos from Engaging Events to plan their special day.
Looking Forward to Their Big Day
Exploring downtown Charleston with Brooke and Matthew was a joy, and I’m excited to capture their special day in Kiawah this fall. With the breathtaking Ocean Course as their backdrop, their wedding promises to be as beautiful as their love story.
For anyone considering a destination wedding, Charleston and Kiawah offer unparalleled charm and beauty. Whether you’re drawn by the historic downtown or the picturesque coastline, these locations provide the perfect setting for unforgettable memories.
