Brandie & Kevin 5/3/08








Well, one of the great things about what we do is getting to know new families every week. These guys were a little different. Brandie & Kevin have been together for about 10 years and are finally tying the knot. This was a very casual laid back group. The comfort that they showed around each other was very disarming. The wedding was at The Big Apple downtown. Very recently renovated, and a very cool historic spot with the reception following at the Marriot. A great great great wedding band The B-Town Playaz( www.btownplayaz.com) from Bluffton completely rocked the reception playing everything from John Denver to Metallica. Great fun. Video coming soon...

Well,
We've been quite busy here, right in the middle of our wedding season, but I decided to catch up on some weddings over the last few weeks. First, is Taylor & Jonathan. These guys had a very fun group, and there was never a dull moment. Their wedding was held in Boyce Chapel at First Baptist Columbia. This is a great space that we have worked in many many times, and are always very impressed with the great people there and the beautiful chapel. The bride received some amazing gifts for the wedding day. Her dress was new, and for the borrowed she got to carry her grandmother's handkercheif. For the blue, she got as a gift her mother's anniversary ring. Mary really had to hold it together for that one!
The reception was held at the Palmetto Club. Music was provided by Second Nature ( http://www.2ndnatureband.com ) It was a great night, and everyone had an awesome time.Everybody could dance even grandpa! Here are some pics and the highlight video from the day. Congrats to everyone...

Claire & Andy 4/19/08

So,
It is interesting what happens when you plan a wedding outside. The rain threatened all day. With all of the prayers for it not to rain, the sun came out at 5:15 and it made for a beautiful wedding by the water. The passing clouds made for interesting pictures, and would you believe the rain held off just long enough to get everyone into the reception, and then the bottom fell out. Amazing. The family took care of most all of the decorating, and Claire even wore her grandmother's cameo on the bouqet which was a nice touch. The ceremony and reception were held at Taylor Plantation. Entertainment was provided by the Palmetto Groove Band. It was really great getting to know these guys, and we wish them all the best.

Jessica & Neal 4/5/2008





Jessica & Neal Opening from Bill Grant on Vimeo.

Hey Everyone,
I know this one is a few weeks late, but I had this pesky golf tournament that threw my whole schedule off. I will be updating quite a few over the next few days, but let me start where we left off with Jessica & Neal. These guys were a super bunch. There are just times where you know it is a real thing, and this couple just radiated that. Jessica could not stop smiling all day! And it rained even! They got married at North Trenholm Baptist. Neal's father was one of the officients which is always a treat. Everyone at the church was very helpful, and everything went off without a hitch. The reception was held at the Columbia Conference Center. This was our first reception at this venue and I must say it was very nice. The staff were all extremely attentive, and seemed happy to be there. Anyway, I am posting an intro to their DVD this time rather thatn a highlight, just to have some variety. More very soon folks... and congratulations you two.
